Take deep yet relaxed breaths.
Inhale,
Then exhale.
Become aware of your chest,
Rising then falling with each breath.
Let your abdomen naturally expand,
Then relax.
Draw your mind away from other thoughts,
Focusing on the feeling of the breath as it enters and leaves your body.
Your breath is like a gentle wave washing onto the shore,
Very naturally flowing,
Inwards and outwards.
Feel this wave-like motion washing over your whole body.
The breath is effortless,
Unforced.
The inward breath draws prana into your body and rejuvenates it.
Feel your body relaxing on the outward breath.
Allow your shoulders to relax.
Feel the release of tension spreading down into your arms and into your hands.
Feel it spreading slowly throughout your entire body.
Just let go and relax.
Relax your face,
Feel the tension leaving your forehead.
Feel your scalp relaxing.
Feel your jaw relax,
Letting your teeth slightly separate.
Now we will begin to meditate on the mantra.
We will inhale together,
Mentally saying,
Gaura Anga,
And immersing our mind in the mantra,
Now exhale,
Saying with me,
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Keeping your eyes closed,
Let the mantra continue to resonate in your mind.
As we chant,
Immerse your mind in the sound.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Gaura Anga.
Now,
Become aware of your breath.
Focus on the feeling of the breath in your body.
Slowly become aware of the external sounds in your environment.
Be aware of your relaxed yet energized body and your calm mind as you come out of the meditation.
