Welcome to your five-minute break.
The intention of this practice is to give you five minutes to simply be with your breath with no distractions.
Please practice when you can be uninterrupted for at least five minutes.
This is a voice-only practice.
My voice will guide you.
Settle in and let's begin.
I invite you to allow your body to settle in where you are.
Take a moment to get comfortable whether seated or lying down.
If possible,
Allow your spine to be straight yet relaxed.
You may close your eyes if you are comfortable to allow your focus to go deeper inward.
Begin to breathe consciously and notice how your body feels as you begin to connect with your breath.
With each breath,
You start to relax a little more.
Notice if your breath is deep and full or light and shallow.
Just a gentle awareness,
Simply notice your breath.
No need to change it.
Just breathe.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
Enjoy this moment,
This just right time you have given yourself.
Breathe in and breathe out.
If you have thoughts coming up,
Just breathe,
Smile,
And say thank you.
Breathing in appreciation for your thoughts and all the reminders they give you.
Breathe in and breathe out.
You are at peace.
You can silently tell your thoughts to remind you later and gently let them know now is your time.
Just breathe.
Enjoy a few moments of silence and feeling appreciation for your breath.
You are loved.
You are love.
You are lovable.
I'll be back in a few moments.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
Simply relax and return to appreciation of your breath if you have thoughts coming up.
Breathe in,
Breathe out.
You are love.
You are love.
It's time to come back now.
Gently rub your hands together and place them over your eyes and when you're ready open your eyes.
Look around and notice what you see.
Take a deep breath in and exhale through your mouth.
Notice how your body feels.
Take this feeling with you for the rest of your day.
Be well.
