Gently arrive here,
Allowing this moment to become a quiet space where you can rest.
Let everything begin to soften around you as you settle into stillness.
Notice the natural rhythm of your breath moving through you.
The inhale arriving on its own.
The exhale flowing back out.
A steady current of life that has been with you all along.
Allow your awareness to rest with this movement.
The subtle rise and fall.
The way the breath unfolds without effort.
With each breath,
There is a sense of space opening within you.
A quiet spaciousness that invites your attention to slow down and simply be here.
Feel the body being gently supported as you breathe.
The chest and belly moving softly with each cycle.
The whole system finding its own natural rhythm.
There is nothing to shape or direct.
The breath knows how to move.
The body knows how to receive it.
And you can simply stay close to this experience.
Breathing becomes a place to return to.
A simple anchor in the present moment.
A quiet thread that connects you to here.
Let your awareness rest in the sensations of breathing.
The coolness of the inhale.
The warmth of the exhale.
The continuous flow that requires nothing from you.
As you stay with this rhythm,
A quiet sense of ease may naturally begin to spread through the body simply through the act of being here with your breath.
Let the breath continue to guide you moment by moment into presence.
And as this time comes to a close,
Take a few final breaths in your own rhythm,
Allowing yourself to remain with this simple awareness.
Nothing to hold on to.
Just breathing and being here.
