If you're feeling overwhelmed,
Mentally overloaded,
Or carrying too much inside right now.
This gentle heart-centered relaxation combines calming 4-7-8 breathing.
With grinding body awareness to help soften stress.
And reconnect you with a sense of steadiness within.
There is nothing you need to fix in this moment.
Nothing you need to force.
This is a space to pause.
To breathe.
And to soften.
And if your mind wanders,
That's completely natural.
You can gently return to the sound of my voice.
And the rhythm of your breath.
Allow your eyes to gently close.
Or soften your gaze to a comfortable point in front of you.
Feeling the support beneath your body.
Allowing the shoulders to soften just a little.
The jaw and clenching.
And the hands resting.
Let's breathe together,
Four,
Seven,
Eight breaths.
Breathing in for fall.
Holding for seven.
And out for eight.
There should never be any strain with the breath.
Let's breathe together.

8 breath returning to its natural rhythm now.
And noticing perhaps.
A little more space inside the body.
A softening.
A slowing day.
And mentally say to yourself.
I do not need to carry everything right now.
One bruh.
Is enough.
I soften with each exhale.
Or wind a snail to the body.
And feel the rise and fall of the breath.
With each breath I breathe.
Allowing the body to soften a little more.
Shoulders softening.
Face softening.
Chest softening.
You might like to imagine tension in the body.
Like ice slowly beginning to soften beneath warm sunlight.
And with each breath.
The warmth gently spreads through you.
Softening tension.
Softening pressure.
And allowing yourself to let go.
Slowly.
And gently.
Imagine the sun is shining down upon your surface.
Warming you all over.
With each breath.
Feel the sun's warmth.
Sinking deeper.
Into your body.
Bring in comfort,
Warmth.
And relaxation.
The sun reaches every part of the ice.
You begin to feel the tension releasing the ice beginning to melt.
Droplets of water forming.
Dripping away.
Taking your worries.
And your stress with them.
Absorb the warmth of the sun.
The sun's rays fill you with peace and melts away any remaining tension.
Feeling the wall.
Softening the muscles.
Allow yourself to melt.
A little more.
Softening.
Letting go.
The water that was once ice.
Starts to flow.
And merge with the earth.
You are becoming part of the world.
Around you.
Feeling yourself growing lighter.
As the sun continues to warm you.
Boundaries at once to find your icy form.
Art is over.
You are becoming one with everything.
Around you.
Feeling connected and at peace.
Breathing in the warmth.
And the light.
In this moment.
You have the opportunity.
To start anew.
Letting go of anything.
That no longer serves you.
Any stories,
Memories.
Habits you want to let go of.
Letting go.
Bring your awareness to your heart center.
At the centre of the chest.
Feeling its gentle rhythm.
Imagine your heart center.
As a bright glowing source of light.
Radiating warmth and love.
Throughout your body.
With each breath.
This light grows stronger.
Expanding outwards.
In every direction.
Feeling your chest.
The torso.
A knack in the head.
Travelling through all twists and turns of the mind.
Travelling down the arms.
Down all the way to the hands,
Fingers and thumbs.
The entire upper body bathed in light.
Allow this light to cleanse you and wash away any remaining.
Negativity or tension.
The light spreading down the legs to the knees,
Down to the ankles,
Feet.
And toes.
Feeling the love and warmth spreading.
As it travels to every cell,
Every muscle.
Every thought.
You bathing in this loving energy.
And this energy is part of you.
As you bask in this glow.
Bring to mind a person or place.
That brings you.
Joy.
It could be a loved one,
A dear friend,
Or a favourite spot in nature.
Visualise this clearly.
And allow your feelings of joy and love to fill your heart.
Enhancing the light.
Within you.
Let these feelings of love and joy Merge with your body.
Softening.
Letting.
God.
You
