So welcome to this breathing and meditating for self-healing. Firstly getting into a very comfortable position either sitting upright or laying down and making sure you will not be disturbed throughout this meditation. It's easy to heal. All we must do is relax and let our body do the work. Give yourself now the time to breathe your very best. Many people go entire days without even thinking about their breath yet it is the very thing that's keeping us alive. Your breath has been there for you since the beginning fitting to each moment exactly as it needs. The breath never asks questions and it never judges you. It simply signals the body to be calm allowing for great healing of all kinds to take place. So let's honor our breath now and all that it gives us by taking five significant and purposeful breaths. One. Fully inhale expanding your belly and chest as much as you can holding it for a moment and exhale feeling a wave of relaxation sweep over you. Two. Inhale filling your entire breathing system with fresh oxygen. Hold it and exhale noticing again the wave of relaxation gently sweeping over you. Three. Inhale very deeply so that you are brimming with air taking a moment at the top to soak in the life force we call oxygen. Hold and exhale noticing how your body relaxes in different areas without any effort from you. Four. Fully inhale beginning to feel these breaths purifying your entire body. Hold and exhaling not having to do anything at all just noticing how you are feeling. And five. Last one. A full and beautiful breath coming in. Hold it. Feel invigorated by this task and exhale allowing the wave of relaxation to again sweep over you. Just bringing your breathing back to normal and just taking notes of how you're feeling in this very moment. You now have an abundance of oxygen and this is truly how we are created to feel. Breathing deeply and fully is an expression of self-compassion. Let your breath stay natural now and notice how abundance feels. Begin noticing how the very top of your head feels. Let your focus move down to your eyes and just notice how your eyes feel and gently ask them to relax. Any small eye movements you notice allow for you to feel calm. Notice how the back of your head feels against the surface that it is touching. How heavy does your head feel right now? Let your focus move to your nose feeling the slightest sensations of air moving in and out with your breath. When you breathe in imagine that you are being filled with a natural medicinal phenomenon and when you breathe out imagine your body feels light and deeply relaxed. Now focus on your ears. Notice how they feel and what they hear around you. Trying to hear every single noise. When sounds come into your ears they act as little waves of relaxation taking you even deeper. Notice the sound of my voice and how soothing it is. From here forward you can only hear my voice guiding you. All other sounds passing through only take you deeper into a state of healing. Now focus on your mouth. How does it feel and what do you notice? Perhaps you can imagine biting into a fresh piece of your favorite fruit and you notice how your mouth waters. Move your focus down now to your neck and shoulders and if there is any tension along the way just ask it to be released. Move your attention slowly going down each arm down all the way to each fingertip. What are your fingertips touching right now? Feel the sensations on your fingertips. Allow your focus to go to your chest relaxing this area as well as your upper back. And if you notice any tension just ask it kindly to release. Now imagine you are focusing on your heart and can feel it beating strongly supporting you. Relax your heart and notice how good it feels to do so. And now focus on your lungs the wings of the heart. Feel them gently expanding and contracting with your breath delivering oxygen to your body. Allow your focus to move through your vital organs and digestive system. Just notice your belly and observe it digesting effortlessly for you. Now noticing your lower back and how it presses against the surface you are on and if you feel any tension just say please relax. Focus now on your pelvis and hips and notice any sensations you are having there. This takes you deeper into a state of relaxation which helps to heal you. Allowing your focus to move down each leg now slowly relaxing those as well. Your legs have been taking you to so many places over the years and they deserve to fully relax. This wonderful wave of relaxation moves over your knees and down your lower legs all the way to your feet and to the very tip of each toe. Now we are going to take our focus going back up the same way we came but this time imagine you are slowly pulling in your favorite color. This color is a deeply healing substance. So imagining your favorite color is coming in through your toes and into your feet. It goes up your legs passing over your knees and up into your pelvis and hips. This beautiful color is filling up your digestive system and belly. It fills your vital organs and continues into your lungs. This beneficial color is profoundly helping you heal. Imagine it glowing as it fills your whole heart and you notice how happy you become while doing this. The color now travels across your shoulders and down each arm all the way to your fingertips. This invigorating color is moving up your neck now helping to mend you as it goes up. It blankets your mouth, Ears, Nose and eyes and instantly fills every tiny space in your brain encompassing your mind helping to heal it as well. It moves all the way to the very top of your head where we began enveloping you in a curative experience. And just notice now how completely relaxed your entire body feels. Just staying with your normal breath, Body relaxed and as we come to the end of this meditation just know that this practice can create amazing benefits for you of self-healing and you can feel free to practice this meditation every day.
