Hello,
I'm glad you're here.
Settle into a comfortable position.
Let your body find a place that doesn't require much from you.
Allow your hands to rest naturally.
Take a pause.
Let the eyes close if they want to.
Notice your breathing.
Already breathing.
Already steady.
You don't need to change anything.
Take one slow breath in through your nose.
And gently breathe out.
Again.
Breathing in.
And breathing out.
One more time.
A soft inhale.
Complete exhale.
Now.
Allow the breath to settle into its own rhythm.
Quiet.
Simple,
Uncomplicated.
Bring your awareness to your forehead.
Let it soften.
Relax the muscles around your eyes.
Allow them to rest deeply.
Unclench your jaw.
Let your tongue rest comfortably.
Feel your shoulders becoming a little heavier,
A little softer.
Feeling to ease,
To move down your arms,
Through your hands,
All the way to your fingertips.
Bring your attention to your chest Notice the gentle movement of your breath.
Nothing to manage.
Nothing to improve.
Let your stomach soften.
Release any effort you may be holding there.
Feel the support beneath your body.
You are being headed.
I cannot.
Need to hold.
Everything right now.
Allow relaxation to move into your hips.
Your legs,
Your knees,
Your feet.
The whole body begins to settle quietly,
Naturally.
Imagine a gentle wave of calm moving from the top of your head.
Down through your entire body.
Leaving softness wherever it passes.
Another wave even slower.
Even quieter.
If dots appear.
Let them move through.
There is nothing to follow.
Nothing to solve.
Return to the feeling of rest.
Return to the support beneath you.
Return to this breath.
Silently.
Let these words settle.
I am safe to rest.
I can soften without losing myself.
Stay here for a few quiet moments.
Breathing.
Resting.
Allowing.
Begin to notice the space around you again,
The air on your skin,
The sounds in the distance.
The support beneath your body.
Take one final gentle breath in.
And slowly let it go.
You remain here.
For a few more breaths.
Open your eyes when you're ready.
Carry this calm within you.
And thank yourself.
For taking these moments to simply rest.
