Grounded

If you are feeling anxious, take a moment to ground yourself. Finding your place, in the space you are in can allow your mind to settle anxious thoughts. In this meditation, take a breath, and recognize where you are in the moment.

Find a stable position, Standing tall, Sitting straight, Or lying flat. Feel the space you occupy. Sink in further, Stand taller, Or sit up further. Close your eyes, Allowing yourself a moment to find where you are. You are here, In this place. Take a slow and steady breath, Allow air to fill your lungs completely, Then with a noise Exhale like whoosh, Again, Filling up every speck of the available space in your chest, And release whoosh. One last time, Taking all the air you can manage, And release whoosh. Stay here until you are ready to move.
