Find a comfortable position.
Gently close your eyes and allow your body to settle into the support beneath you.
Take a soft nourishing breath in.
And slowly release it,
Allowing your shoulders to soften as the air flows out.
For the next few moments,
I invite you to follow the natural movement of your breath,
Allowing each exhale to become a little slower and longer,
As though you were gently sighing away the weight of the day.
Allow the breath to arrive gently.
And as you exhale,
Notice how your body naturally begins to soften.
Continue with this peaceful rhythm.
Breathing in with a sense of openness and breathing out with a gentle feeling of release.
Feel the quiet movement of your breath flowing through you.
Allow the muscles around your eyes to relax.
Your jaw to soften.
And your shoulders to become a little heavier.
Imagine each exhale creating a little more space within you.
Now give yourself a few quiet moments to continue at your own pace,
Enjoying the softness of this rhythm and the peacefulness of simply being here.
Gradually,
Allow your breathing to return to its natural flow.
Notice the subtle sensations within your body.
And the quiet presence of this moment.
Perhaps you can sense a little more ease,
A little more spaciousness,
Or a softness that wasn't there before.
Take one final peaceful breath,
Allowing its gentle movement to remind you that moments of calm can be found in the simplest places.
And whenever you're ready,
Gently open your eyes,
Returning to your day with a softer body and a more peaceful mind.
