Take a comfortable seat for this meditation.
Have both feet placed on the ground.
You can have your hands in your lap.
Breathe in and out at your own pace for now and as you're taking a few breaths,
When you're comfortable,
You can close your eyes at an exhale.
As you're breathing in and out,
Just scan through your body,
Releasing any tension that you might find.
Release tension in your brows,
Your jaw,
Your neck,
Your shoulders,
Your arms,
Your hands.
You can place your hands palm up to receive or palm down on your knees to help ground.
Check in with your stomach.
Are you tightening it?
Loosen up your stomach.
Relax your thighs.
Relax your legs,
Your knees,
Your calves,
Your ankles,
Your feet.
Wiggle your toes a couple times.
Turn your neck side to side.
Roll your shoulders.
Exhale all of your breath and we're going to meet at an inhale for four,
