Hello my beautiful soul and welcome to day 4 which is going to be focused on our nervous system and calming it before our day begins.
Now before we get started I want you to find a comfortable space where you will not be bothered or interrupted and make yourself comfortable.
You can sit for this or lie down,
Whatever is more comfortable for you.
And as we take this time I want you to just settle in and really feel the support beneath your body.
And before our body moves into the day let us first remind it that safety exists here and safety is obtainable to all of us.
Once you're comfortable you can close your eyes and we will begin.
It's important that we start off our nervous system calm with breath work because what the body does is it listens carefully to our breath and translates that into safety or danger.
So it's very important that we are communicating to our body that we are safe through our breath.
So what we're going to do here is we're going to inhale for a count of 4 and exhale for a count of 6.
So let's begin that now.
Inhale with me slowly for 4,
2,
3,
4.
Okay very good.
Let's do that one more time again.
Slowly inhale and longer exhale here.
Alright,
Now let your shoulders drop down and relax.
I want you to release any tension in that area of your neck and your shoulders.
Let's let our jaw fully release.
We're going to focus on letting the muscles around our eyes soften and relax.
We can move up into the eyebrows and forehead and make sure that those muscles are smooth and relaxed.
These are all very important things to do to remind our body that we are safe.
Take a moment and just let your body soften.
Move down to the ears and the temples,
Releasing any tension that might be there.
We can move down through our neck and our shoulders.
Once again making sure there's no tension.
If there is,
Give yourself a moment to breathe into that space.
Move down through your chest area,
Into your ribs,
Just relaxing those muscles.
Move down your arms,
Into your elbows and your wrists,
Relaxing your hands and your fingers.
We can continue to move down to our belly,
A place that we hold a lot of tension that may not even be realized.
Just gently breathe your belly,
Not trying to force it,
Not trying to control it.
Just gently breathing,
Letting our weight fully release into the support beneath us.
We can continue moving that relaxation down into our hips and our lower back.
Continuing to move down through our thighs and moving further down into our knees,
Our calves,
Our ankles,
And finally our feet.
Now you may notice that your body feels more calm at this point.
You may feel a warm or tingling sensation.
All perfectly perfect for you.
Now I want you to repeat after me.
Now you may do this out loud or in your mind.
Right now I am safe.
Right now I allow my body to fully soften and relax.
My body is allowed to rest before it moves.
Now I want you to continue to feel that calm spreading throughout your body.
And again I want you to do a quick scan and if you feel any tension I want you to again breathe into that spot to fully release it.
Sometimes this practice may need to be repeated to fully feel the relaxation but at this point you should be feeling much more calm and much more peace than you did before you started.
And remember there is no perfect way to do this.
However you are experiencing this is perfect for you.
Just remember to slow your breathing and allow your body to relax.
Now we're going to take some time to scan and focus on any areas that might need more attention.
And when I return I will bring you back into the moment.
Let's take one final breath.
Inhale with me.
And exhale.
Now when you're ready I want you to wiggle your toes,
Wiggle your fingers,
Bring yourself back into awareness.
And when you're ready you can gently open your eyes.
I want to thank you for taking the time today to focus on your nervous system.
If you continue with my seven day healing process you will be able to fully incorporate all of the lessons here to fully relax your body.
But if you are mainly focused on trying to reset your nervous system I recommend that you stay on this exercise for a couple more days until you feel that it is fully working.
Like I said before there is no wrong way to do this.
Whatever works for you is perfectly perfect for you.
Thank you again for taking time today to do this.
It is so important that we focus on our nervous system because it is where everything begins.
I'm Satine Starr sending you many blessings from this side of the mic.
