How are you feeling?
Do you need to relax?
Would you like to relax?
Is your body tense?
Can you feel the stress in your shoulders?
Is it building in your jaw?
Is there a crease in your forehead?
Take the next few minutes to relax your muscles,
To ease the stress in your body,
To calm your thoughts.
Allow this time to be free from worry.
Be at ease.
Find a comfortable position,
Sitting or lying flat.
Close your eyes if that feels right.
Take a few steady breaths in,
Releasing them slowly.
As you exhale,
The last breath,
Focus on your body.
The next few minutes you will travel down from your head to your toes.
With each breath you inhale,
Exhale the energy into the body part.
Imagine that breath is kneading out your muscles,
Removing your stress,
And easing your mind.
Deep breath in,
And focus on your forehead.
Remember,
As you release that breath,
Release that tension that has built up in your forehead.
That tension that's causing the wrinkles to form.
Release it in your jaw,
In your neck,
In your shoulders.
Breathing in with each body part,
Releasing that breath with the tension along with it.
In your right arm,
Taking a few deep breaths if you need to.
Whatever is necessary to rid yourself of that tension.
In your left arm,
In your chest,
In your back,
In your stomach,
In your pelvis,
In your backside,
In your right leg.
Deep breaths in,
Exhaling letting all that tension flow out to the ground beneath you.
In your left leg,
In your right foot,
Now your left foot.
Inhale a deep breath,
Your deepest yet,
And when you can't hold any more breaths,
Release it.
On your own,
Travel from your toes to your head.
Breathe into any area that still feels tense.
Continue until your body is relaxed and your mind is at ease.
Open your eyes,
Wiggle your fingers,
And your toes.
Find movement however you need throughout your body.
If during your day or night you feel the tension returning,
Pause,
Breathe,
And release it.
