Welcome.

Find a comfortable position,

Either lying down or seated.

Let your eyes gently close or soften your gaze.

There's nothing to do right now.

Nowhere to be.

Just this moment.

Connecting with your breath.

Inhale slowly through your nose and exhale gently through your mouth.

Inhale and exhale.

Inhale and exhale.

Let your body soften with each breath.

You are safe.

You can relax now.

It is safe to relax.

It is safe to slow down.

It is safe to take a break.

Begin to bring your awareness to your jaw.

Let it soften and unclench.

Relax your shoulders.

Let them drop a little lower.

Relax your belly.

Let it rise and fall.

No need to hold anything in.

You are allowed to be here just as you are.

Your breath is enough.

Your presence is enough.

You are allowed to rest.

You are allowed to just be.

You are not behind.

You are exactly where you need to be.

You might gently repeat to yourself or just listen and feel.

I am safe.

I am here.

Coming back to your breath.

One conscious breath can bring you all the way back home.

Feel how your energy has shifted.

Feel how your nervous system has started to settle.

Let your breath be the doorway to calm,

To love,

To your inner self.

Thank you for coming here,

For choosing this moment,

For giving yourself this love,

For returning to your inner calm,

Your inner peace.

Thank yourself for making this time.

See if you can make a little smile.

Feel the magic in your heart.

It's thanking you too.

When you feel ready,

Begin to move your head gently from side to side.

Maybe roll your shoulders,

Wiggle your fingers,

Stretch in any way that feels nourishing to you.

And when it feels right,

Gently open your eyes.

Come back to the room.

Staying in this present moment.

Staying in this feeling for just a moment longer.

Really feeling this wave of calm that has come over you and thanking yourself for giving it to you.

Thank you.

That was so beautiful, calming and rich. I feel so much more connected to myself now during some busy days of work and travel. Ava’s voice is soothing remedy to the cluttered mind.
