Find a relaxed,
Comfortable position.
Keep your back upright but not stiff.
Hands resting wherever they're comfortable.
Notice your body from the inside.
Noticing the shape of your body,
The temperature,
The weight,
The texture.
Let yourself relax and become curious about your body.
Feel the sensations of your body.
Feel the contact of your body with the floor.
Relax any areas of tightness or tension.
Let your breath soften.
Begin to tune into your breath in your body.
Feeling the natural flow of breath.
Don't change your breathing,
Just notice where you feel your breath in your body.
Might be in your abdomen,
Your chest,
Your back,
Throat or nostrils.
See if you can feel the sensations of your breath,
One breath at a time.
You may notice your mind wandering.
If you do,
Gently bring your attention back to the feeling of breathing.
When the mind wanders,
Kindly bring it back to the body.
Let yourself relax more deeply and offer yourself appreciation for the gift of embodied breath.
Relax your body.
