Hello,
Welcome to the space.
Today,
Our space is designated to offering you a midday check-in.
Here,
We're going to take just a couple of moments to check in with our body and check in with our breath.
Starting with our feet,
We're going to bring our attention to the soles of our feet and our ankles.
We're going to give ourselves a moment to roll out our ankles,
Maybe wiggle our toes if it calls to us,
Restoring some blood flow into our feet.
Working our way up,
Giving notice to our knees,
Giving them a bend and extension if it feels right for you.
Continuing up to our hips,
Noticing any tension here,
Anything that can be released.
Continuing our way up,
Making note of our torso and our chest,
Just simply noticing,
No judgment,
Seeing if there's any tension there we could release.
Coming into our shoulders,
Allowing ourselves to roll them backwards a couple of times,
Perhaps rolling them forward a couple of times as well,
Just checking in,
Paying attention to our elbows,
Maybe we're flexing,
Maybe we're extending,
And bring our awareness down to our wrists and hands,
Giving ourselves a moment to roll out our wrists,
Wiggle our fingers,
And lastly,
Bringing our attention up to our neck and head,
Up to our neck and head,
Giving ourselves a moment to roll our neck slowly and gently.
And now coming into our breath,
Giving ourselves a moment,
Simply checking in,
No judgment here,
Just noticing.
Now I encourage you to take a few mindful breaths before we return to the space around us.
Here I encourage you to inhale deeply through your nose,
Hold for just a moment,
And exhale slowly through your mouth.
Once more,
Inhale through your nose,
Hold for a moment,
Exhale slowly through your mouth.
Take a moment to do two more rounds of mindful breath at your own pace.
And now,
When you're ready,
I invite you to bring your awareness back to the space around you,
Slowly re-entering your day as we end our time together here.
