Hey there!

Thanks for joining me.

Let's take a break together.

For these next few minutes,

There's nothing to do,

Nothing to worry about.

Let's relax and just be.

Take a deep breath and when you exhale,

Release any tensions as you release your breath.

Let it all go.

And let's not get wrapped up in any thoughts right now either.

If you notice any thoughts appearing,

Remind them that we're taking a break and we'll catch up with them later and let those thoughts drift away.

Now,

Gently turn your attention to what's happening around you right now.

But don't label anything with words in your mind and don't judge what you notice.

Just let it be.

Simply notice this moment as it is.

Everything from the obvious to the subtle.

The various sounds.

How your body feels inside your clothes.

The rhythmic expansion and release of your breath.

Most importantly,

Notice the calmness of your breath.

The peaceful stillness at the center of your being.

There is a deep contentment here that needs nothing else to feel calm.

The calmness of your breath.

The calmness of your breath.

There is a deep contentment here that needs nothing else to feel happy,

To feel whole.

There is a pure shining radiant joy of simply being.

It's always here,

Always available.

We just tend to overlook it,

Especially when caught up with thoughts in the midst of the busyness of our day.

Take a few more moments to relax and just be.

The bell will remind you when this little break is over.

The bell will remind you when this little break is over.

As you get back to your day,

You need yourself to stop every once in a while to take breaks like this in order to invite more peace and calm into your life.

It's easy.

Take a break from the thoughts and relax into simply being.

Namaste.
