So I wanted to share with you a technique taught by Donna Eden,
So Donna Eden does energy medicine and it's called the triple warmer smoothie and it's really good for calming down the nervous system,
So putting us into a state of relaxation.
A safe place where we can feel calm,
We can feel relaxed and includes some movements of the hands,
Some small movements around the face and includes some breath work as well.
So if you'd like to join me,
First of all bring your hands together and rub to create warmth and then place your hands over your eyes,
Take a deep breath in and away.
Deep breath in and away and once more in and away.
Then allow your finger to stroke across your eyes to your temples,
Hold at your temples,
Again three deep breaths in and out.
In Out In and out.
Trace your fingers around the backs of the ears where the head is,
Round by the head and then down to your shoulders and allow your elbows to drop down and toward the body as your hands are on your shoulders,
So your fingertips are around the back of the shoulders and the palms are at the front.
Give a little squeeze here as you inhale and exhale release,
Just release the breath,
Not the hands.
Inhale squeeze,
Exhale release and once more inhale squeeze and exhale release.
Take another breath in and as you breathe out bring your hands to your heart center at the center of the chest,
One on top the other.
Three deep breaths in and out.
In and out and once more in.
Let's repeat that again,
Place your hands over your eyes,
Three deep breaths in and out,
Just allowing the body to begin to soften,
Deep breaths in and out.
Take a breath in and as you exhale let the fingertips drop down to the eyes and stroke out to your temples.
From here three deep breaths in and out,
Another breath in,
Let the hands stroke on the exhale round the backs of the ears until they hold on to the shoulders.
Three deep breaths in and out,
In and out.
Now bring your hands to your heart centers,
Take a breath in,
As you exhale bring your hands to your heart center,
Three deep breaths in and out.
In once more,
Hands over your eyes and maybe just give them another brush,
Just create warmth once more if your hands have cooled down at all.
Bring the hands over the eyes,
Three deep breaths in and away,
In,
Once more in and out.
Take a breath in,
As you exhale gently stroke your fingers down and across your eyes until the hands reach at the temples.
This time just give a little circle at the temples,
Do that three times.
Then hold,
Three deep breaths in and out,
And out.
Take a breath in,
As you exhale hands come around the backs of the ears,
Stroking down to your shoulders,
Let the elbows drop down in sync,
So gently pulling on your shoulders,
Three deep breaths in and out.
Just allowing the body to begin to soften,
Deep breaths in and out,
Take a breath in,
As you exhale let the hands drop down to your heart center,
One on top the other,
Feel the warmth of your hand as you take three deep breaths in and away,
In,
Once more in and out.
Allow your hands to release down and observe how you feel in this moment.
Observe if you feel a little more calmer,
Or perhaps there's no change,
Just observe.
If there's any tension in your jaw,
Allow it to relax,
Bring your awareness now to your shoulders,
And your shoulders sink down and away from the ear.
Any emotional load that you've been holding in your shoulders,
Just for now,
Let it go,
Just for this moment.
Releasing,
Body relax,
To the exhale.
Be still my friend,
Embrace this moment of calm and rest,
This moment of peace and opportunity.
Enjoy the beauty,
The oneness,
Relax,
Recharge,
Release,
Let go,
Embrace all that is.
Releasing the judgmental mind,
Releasing the fear of failure,
This moment is for you.
An opportunity to let go,
To honor yourself.
To listen deep within to that inner voice,
The inner wisdom,
The inner calm,
The stillness,
The gap,
Breathing in,
Breathing out,
Embracing,
Releasing,
Letting go.
