Hi friends,
It's Sarah here.
Thanks for joining me for another move,
Make and meditate.
Are you ready?
Standing tall like a mountain,
Feet together,
Arms by your side.
Good.
Now let's take three body breaths from our head to our heart to our feet.
When I say a part of the body,
You breathe in and you breathe out in between.
Ready?
Let's go.
Head Heart Feet Good.
Great.
Now let's start Mountain Pose,
Strong and still.
Pushing your feet into the earth.
Well done.
Let's bring our arms up to the sky,
Reaching all the way up.
Arms are straight here.
Good.
And let's bring them down by our side,
Back into Mountain Pose.
Now let's try that with breath.
Breathe in and bring your arms up to the sky,
All the way up.
Arms are straight.
Breathe out,
Bring your arms by your side.
Great.
Now bend your knees and touch your toes.
Straighten your legs and touch your knees.
Arms on your hips,
Stand up tall.
Great.
Let's do that with breath now.
Stand up tall in Mountain Pose.
Breathe in and bend your knees.
Breathe out,
Touch your toes.
Breathe in,
Straighten your legs.
Breathe out,
Touch your knees.
Good,
Breathe in,
Hands on your hips.
Breathe out,
Stand up tall.
Great job.
Now we're going to find a comfortable space to lie down for our meditation.
Great.
And when you get there,
We'll take three body breaths to calm our body.
When I say a body part,
You breathe in and breathe out in between.
Ready?
Let's go.
Head.
Heart.
Feet.
Great,
Amazing.
Now we'll go through a little meditation and all you need to do is listen to my voice.
Bring your attention to your mind where your thoughts are.
Now,
You probably have a lot of thoughts floating around in your mind like we all do.
Maybe there are small ones.
Maybe they're big thoughts that have feelings.
Let's imagine our thoughts as little balls floating around in our head.
Let's try and focus on one thought today.
So can you remember a time when you were brave?
Maybe it was when you were at school trying to make friends or when you wanted to climb that great big tree that you'd never climbed before.
Can you remember a time when you were brave?
Good.
Now,
You may have a lot of thoughts floating around,
But let's just choose one.
What was the first thought you had when you felt like you were brave?
Have you got it?
Great.
Now,
I'd like you to imagine that your mind is catching that thought like a ball,
Like you're catching a ball in your hand.
Did you get it?
Now,
Now that your mind has caught that ball,
How does that thought of bravery make you feel?
Does it make you feel strong,
Happy,
Proud?
How does it make you feel?
Good.
Now,
I'd like you to imagine that your mind is letting go of that thought ball,
That thought ball of bravery,
Gently letting go and letting it go wherever it needs to be.
Good.
Now,
Bringing your attention back to your body,
Back to your breath.
Good.
And we'll take three body breaths before we wake up.
When I say your body part,
You breathe in and you breathe out in between.
Head,
Heart,
Feet.
Good.
Now,
Slowly and gently opening your eyes,
Coming back to the space that you're in.
Perhaps you can take that feeling of bravery into your day today.
Thank you for joining me for another Move Make and Meditate.
We'll see you next time.
