Thank you for joining me in this meditation.
I'm hoping to guide you to a state of calm,
Confidence and a peaceful,
Authentic presence.
I'm grateful you have chosen to be here.
Let's begin.
Give yourself a little time to get really comfortable.
Adjust your posture to feel more comfortable.
Lying down or sitting up,
Whichever appeals most to you.
Show kindness to your body by letting your movements be gentle.
Let yourself softly settle.
And if you have not already done so,
I invite you now to close your eyes.
Allow your eyelids to get heavy.
And allow what follows from here to be gentle and effortless.
Be it your movements,
Your breathing or your thoughts.
Bring your attention to your breath and follow the flowing air as it moves in and out.
Notice the gentle rise and fall of your chest as you breathe.
Notice how the breath moves your body.
Notice that your body knows how to breathe.
Simply let your breath flow.
Noticing how the in-breath creates expansion and space.
Noticing how the out-breath provides rest and release.
One gentle breath at a time.
If your mind wanders,
That's okay.
Just return your attention to your breath.
Follow it as it moves in and out of your body.
Feel your breath deepen.
Now imagine that your breath has a soothing,
Compassionate feel to it.
Imagine breathing in that soothing air to your shoulders,
Into your neck,
Into your back,
Arms,
Hands,
Fingers,
Breathing into your belly,
Breathing soothing air into your legs,
Your feet and toes.
Breathe the soothing air into your mind and let your breath release any tension,
Anxiety,
Doubts or worries.
As you continue to breathe in soothing air,
Calming your mind and your body,
Take your attention now to your feet and notice the sensation of feeling grounded.
Feel what it feels like for you to feel grounded and in your mind say to yourself,
I am grounded.
Take your attention to your belly and notice the sensation of feeling centered.
Feel what it feels like to feel centered and in your mind say to yourself,
I am centered.
Take your attention to your spine and notice the sensation of feeling aligned.
Feel what it feels like for you to feel aligned and in your mind say to yourself,
I am aligned.
Take your attention to your chest and to your heart.
Notice the sensation of feeling open.
Feel what it feels like to feel open and in your mind say to yourself,
I am open.
Take your attention to your mind.
Notice the sensation of feeling aware and feel what it feels like for you to feel aware.
In your mind say to yourself,
I am aware.
Take your attention now to the top of your head and notice the sensation of feeling present and feel what it feels like for you to feel present.
In your mind say to yourself,
I am present.
Now take your attention to all of your being and notice the sensation of being enough.
Feel what it feels like for you to feel you are enough and in your mind say to yourself,
I am enough.
I am enough.
Grounded,
Centered,
Aligned,
Open,
Aware,
Present.
Keep these feelings with you as you carry on with your day.
Carry on being you and in your mind remind yourself,
I am enough.
I am enough.
Slowly begin to bring yourself back.
Thank you as always for joining me here.
I am so very grateful for being able to share this meditation with you.
