Take a slow breath in,
And gently let it go.
You don't need to solve anything right now.
You don't need to think your way out of this moment.
Overthinking is not clarity.
It is just the mind trying to feel safe.
Allow your forehead to soften.
Let the space behind your eyes relax.
Let the mind begin to slow.
You don't need to follow every thought.
You don't need to answer every question.
Thoughts can come,
And thoughts can go.
You are not required to engage.
Imagine your thoughts floating by,
Like leaves drifting on water.
You are simply watching.
Each breath out creates more space,
More quiet,
More stillness.
If the mind starts to wander,
That's okay.
Gently return to the breath.
Nothing is wrong.
Nothing needs fixing.
Stillness will come naturally.
Slowly,
As the mind quiets,
Feel the calm beneath the thoughts.
The silence that has always been there.
With every exhale,
Let the mind rest.
Just a little more.
You don't need answers right now.
You are allowed to rest in not knowing.
Stay here for a few moments,
Resting in mental stillness.
Just breathe,
And allow the mind to settle.
