You can continue this breath at your own pace.

And once you have finished your meditation,

Sit for just a few moments and observe.

Observe your body.

Observe your mind.

Observe your breath.

.

Accept however you are feeling now,

And welcome whatever comes in the future with open arms and a calm,

Relaxed mentality.

.

Namaste.
