Hello,
My name is Kat and welcome to today's gentle movement practice.
The purpose of this session is to help you feel fully in your body and aware of the creation that wants to express itself.
There is absolutely no prior skills needed to this.
All I require is your willingness to be present with the sensations that arise in your body.
And so when you're ready,
Just finding a space making sure that when you take your arms,
Oh,
Unlike me when I touch the plant,
Just make sure you've got space either side of your body and that you feel the floor stable underneath your feet.
And when you're ready,
Just shaking out any nerves that you may be feeling.
And it's completely up to you as well if you want to take this practice with your eyes shut,
Listening to the sound of my voice,
Or you can keep your eyes open.
It's completely up to you.
I'll probably jump between the two.
So starting with our feet apart,
Legs parallel,
Hip width apart.
And just closing your eyes to start if it feels good.
And just.
.
.
Noticing your body.
Noticing yourself in this space.
And now really gently,
I invite you to open your eyes.
We're going to test our balance to make sure that we feel safe in our body first.
So I'm just going to face the side for you to see,
But you can stay facing me.
I want you to gently take your weight over the front of your toes,
Test how far you can go,
And then bring yourself back into center.
And then when you feel ready,
I'm going to take it back,
Test it back.
And then back into center.
Let's do that again.
Taking your body forward.
Good,
Bringing it back into center.
Now taking our body back.
Good.
And now we're going to go side to side.
And this is going to feel like a gentle sway.
So we're going to bend into our right leg and we're going to lean to the side.
Good,
And then bring it back into center.
Gorgeous.
Other side,
Bending into that leg.
Bring it back into center.
Beautiful.
And now just gently swaying.
Through each one of these.
Side to side.
If it feels good you can start loosening up your upper body.
Melting into the movement,
However your body wants to move and however your body wants to express itself.
Good,
Let's do that one more time,
Taking it to the side.
And when you're ready we're going to find ourselves back into the middle Bring yourselves into center.
Good.
And now I want you to become aware of your palms.
I'd love you to have them flat against your thighs.
And just feel the warmth of your hands against your thighs.
And when you feel ready,
We're going to take a deep breath in into our belly.
And as we do so,
We're going to draw our arms up our body.
All the way up to our chest.
And then we're going to release the arms.
So now let's get our breath to match that.
Taking a deep breath in.
Belly,
Chest and out through the mouth.
Beautiful.
Let's do that again.
Deep breath in.
And exhale.
Take it out.
Beautiful,
Let's do that one more time.
Feeling the warmth of your body.
And out good let's do that one more time but i want you to take it even slower And I want you to become aware of your skin to skin contact here.
The feeling of your hands on your body.
And take your arms.
And just float them gently down to your sides.
Beautiful.
From here and want you to take your rest.
And I want you to roll your wrists down.
Good,
Now roll them again.
And each time you roll your wrist,
You're going to take it a little higher.
Keep rolling.
Four.
Keep rolling,
Three,
Keep rolling,

And take it back down,

Let's do that again.
Roll it up.
Close your eyes if it feels good.

Let's just do the right arm.

Looking at this hand that does so much for us.

And then I want you to draw your hands down to your forehead.
And if you haven't already done so,
I invite you to close your eyes.
And I want you to let your fingertips just fall down the side of your face.
Bring it down all the way to your hips.
And we're going to finish this off by waking up our hips.
Rolling them around.
You can go clockwise or anti-clockwise,
Whichever way feels good for you.
Again,
You can close your eyes if it feels good.
Let's go the other way.
Here we go.
Round.
So good.
Keep going.

Bending in those knees if you need that extra support.
Good job.
Keep going round.
Let's do that again.

You can close your eyes here,
Feeling into those hips.

How good does it feel in our sacral?
Three.
Good,
Last one.
And Bringing yourself back.
To center.
You can let your arms just drop gently by your side And just take a deep breath in And shake your arms out.
And then bringing your hands to your heart center.
And just rest here.
I want you to notice what feels alive in your body right now.
Where has desire been activated?
Where has connection been activated?
Where has creation come alive for you today?
Is your heart beating fast?
When was the last time you let yourself be so free with movement?
I invite you to come back.
And join me as often as you want.
To feel present in this beautiful one of a kind vessel.
That you inhabit.
Thank you for joining me.
And I hope to see you soon.
