Hello and welcome,
My name is Paige Lee.
And today,
We'll be taking five deep breaths together.
This is a fabulous exercise to connect to at any moment throughout your day where you're feeling tired,
Stressed,
Overwhelmed.
Returning to the power of the breath,
It's rejuvenating and energizing and deeply regulating effects that it has on our body and our nervous system.
So wherever you are,
Create as much comfort as you possibly can in your current position,
Whether seated or lying down.
We'll take a big breath in to prepare.
And then open mouth exhale,
Dump that one out.
And we'll begin,
Take another big breath in to fill the lungs,
Expand the ribs.
And then as you exhale,
Slowly begin to release that breath from the body.
One.
Big breath in to fill,
Expand,
And invite fresh energy in.
Then slowly lengthen the exhales as you release that round of breath from the body.
2.
Inhale to fill through the nose,
Expanding and broadening through the chest space.
And exhale nice and slow,
Nice and easy,
Letting the breath out bit by bit.
3.
Inhale to fill and expand the biggest breath yet.
And then exhale,
Release slowly,
Meaningfully,
And deeply.
4.
Another big breath in here to fill,
Fill,
Fill,
Be all the way here with this round.
And then exhale nice and easily,
Steadily and meaningfully.
Release that breath from the body.
Beautiful job taking those five rounds of breath today.
Allow your breath to return to a more natural state.
And anchor into this feeling,
This moment,
This connection you've just created with yourself,
And allow that to lead you through the rest of your days.
Anchor into it.
So that every thought,
Feeling,
Interaction comes from this state of connection,
This state of inner peace.
The state of regulation.
Thank you so much for breathing with me today.
I wish you a wonderful rest of your day.
