Breathing Into Stillness: 5 Mins To Calm

In this guided meditation and breathwork session, we will calm the body and mind with deep inhales and long exhales. This is a great meditation for a mid-day break, to hit the reset button, or to calm a spiraling mind. If anxiety creeps in, sit back and take five minutes to get to calm but soothing the nervous system with the breath. I have carefully chosen words that soothe a worrisome mind, so doing this daily will help you reset the program of anxiety.

Sit for a moment in the quiet of your own being. Feel the weight of the world slightly lift, If only for this breath. Take a deep inhale, Filling your lungs with the fullness of life, And hold it, Just for a heartbeat or two, And then release slowly, Let that exhale be a soft surrender. In this simple rhythm of breath, You are being still, Finding stillness. Let the tension of the mind unfurl like a leaf, Drifting down. You see, You are not lost in your thoughts, You are breathing into them. Inhale peace, And exhale fear. With each rise and fall, The breath and the body soften, Until the gentle rhythm remains. You see, You are not broken, You are simply breathing through it all. Whole and complete, Held by the breath. So trust this moment, And trust this breath. And as you breathe, Remember you are held in the sacred space of right now, Here with yourself. So sit just for a moment in the quiet of your own being. Let your breath be your anchor. Feel it in your body, The one consistent thing you do not have to worry about. Just inhale deeply, Drawing in peace, Filling your lungs with calm. And pause just for a moment and feel the stillness within you, The stirring of that soft sigh, Setting it down. That gentle exhale, It really is slow and deep, And it allows a sense of balance, A whisper of serenity, Let go, Trust. And the world quiets around you, And you breathe, And the storm calms, And you realize that you are the balance. You find yourself at rest, And you hold the sacred space for yourself. So I invite you to stay here and relax.
