Breathing in. I come home to my body. Breathing out. I come home to the earth. What is it like? To be both relaxed and wakeful. Sugar, Soft. Surrendered receptive. And stira. Steady. Alert. What brings you here today? Maybe you're feeling a particular way. And you'd like to feel differently. Maybe there's something that you're practicing or something you'd like to release from this question. Allow an intention for this practice to arise naturally from within. Maybe it's a word or a phrase. Or a feeling that feels true to you right now. And as you bring your hands together. Or maybe you rest your hands on your chest. Feel the gentle pressure. And notice the subtle energy of this intention. Bringing your attention to your throat Imagine your breath being drawn in and out of the throat. Inhaling through your nostrils. With the inhale, Deep and slow and steady. And keeping your lips gently pursed together. See if you can shape the back of the throat, The narrowing. Like a valve. The breath travels into the belly, Your diaphragm, Ribcage, Widening, Expanding. And at the peak of the inhale, Experiencing the madhya, The space, Suspension, Or stillness followed by a slow and steady exhale, This soft Moana breath, Ocean breath. Just audible for you, Not forcing or pushing, Finding this steady rhythm. Of your breath. This gentle shaping of Ujjayi Pranayama. And then as you continue. Whether you're counting the breaths, Or simply allowing the breath to be slower, Savored, Rhythmic, Predictable. See if you can stay with it. At the same time, See if you can bring your attention to feel the points of connection between your body and the earth Where do you feel most supported? Where do you notice a sense of release? The simple practice and breath by breath drawing in what you need. Your intention. Moment to be still. Every in-breath is drawing into your cells, Drawing into your body, Intentionality. And every slow and rhythmic breath out, Touching the earth and feeling peace. See if you can continue like this Maybe just for one more minute. I'm here doing it with you. The mind is the master of the senses. But your breath is the master of your mind. Breathing in. I come home to my body. Breathing out. I come home to the earth. Stillness. Breath. Intention. Maybe that's enough. Thank you for taking this moment. From my heart to yours. Namaste
