Welcome to your short guided meditation. This is for the time when you don't have that much time but still want to tune in and connect to yourself. So just find a comfortable seat. Take a deep inhale in and exhale. Feeling your shoulders back and down. And just begin to start tuning into your breath. Feeling the breath begin to enter your body and feeling it moving throughout your body. Nourishing and rejuvenating all the cells within your body. And just feeling the slight movement of your body as the exhale comes and the breath leaves your body. And just really beginning to go inward. Beginning to feel your body tune in to this beautiful instrument that we have to do the things that we were supposed to do here on this earth. And just spending these next five minutes tuning it and listening to it is so important. So just taking some deep inhales into your belly. Feeling the diaphragm up. And exhale out through your nose nice and controlled. Inhale in to your belly. Exhale out through your nose nice and controlled. Inhale in to your belly. And exhale out nice and controlled. Inhale in to the belly. And on this exhale just lowering your shoulders. Feeling that space between your ears and your shoulders increasing. Big inhale in to the belly. And exhale out lowering the shoulders feeling the arms heavy and feeling where they are touching your body. And just tuning in noticing how relaxed your body is feeling from just a few moments ago when we started. And just taking a deep inhale in to the heart center. Feeling that heart center expand and exhale out. One more. And feeling that exhale come out. Good. And just sit in silence for the next minute. Tuning in to the breath coming in and out. And anytime a thought comes up just gently noticing it and coming back to the breath. Just always coming back to the breath. Just always coming back to the breath. And then just beginning to deepen your breath. And just remembering what it is we want to keep our attention and awareness on this week. It's going to be different for all of us. But what is it that you are trying to grow in your life? And this is what we're going to keep coming back to. Keeping our attention on this. Just like how we always come back to the breath in our meditation. You're always going to come back to this throughout the day whenever we get distracted. Whenever the things pop up which we need to handle but just always come back to the breath and your focus. And have a good day.
