Hello beautiful souls,

How are you doing today?

Today we're going to go over a little meditation just to help out with anxiety.

If you've been feeling stressed out or a little overwhelmed,

It can happen from anywhere,

Whether you just didn't have a good night's sleep,

You've had something on your mind,

It could just be the littlest thing that can stress us out,

Right?

So we're going to just take a moment,

So don't close your eyes or anything if you're driving.

It's best to do this maybe when you are sitting somewhere,

You're at home,

You could lie down just in somewhere where you are safe.

So slowly sit in a chair and place both of your feet on the ground if you're able to.

I'm going to be right here with you and please know that whatever you're feeling is normal,

It's okay and if you're feeling anxious in any way,

The feeling will pass.

You can just allow it to come and give it space for new feelings and emotions,

Okay?

Now keeping your eyes open for now,

You just take a look around,

Just use all your senses,

Checking your surroundings,

Just noticing everything.

Now for a moment,

Notice five things that you could see,

Four things you can touch,

Three things you can hear,

Two things you can smell,

And one thing you can taste.

Just absorb all of your surroundings,

Take in all these senses and everything from your environment.

And slowly bring all of your thoughts and awareness to the soles of your feet.

They do so much for you,

Don't they?

Feel your feet connecting to the earth,

Knowing that you are steady,

You're stable,

You're secure.

And if you're laying down,

Just feel them in the air,

Just wiggle your little toes.

Just give yourself a few moments to feel grounded and to slow down.

Feel your breath calming,

Just going in and out.

While you're starting to relax,

Bring your attention to your breath.

Even if you feel like you're having trouble breathing,

Know that you're still getting the adequate oxygen you need to your body,

All your limbs,

From your head to your toes.

As the pace of your breath slows down,

Observe your inhales and your exhales,

Just breathing in slowly and exhaling slowly.

Feel your feet releasing into the earth.

And you're inhaling with mindful awareness.

And as you're exhaling,

You feel your body decompressing,

Your shoulders softening.

You're lowering down from your ears,

Your back is loosening up.

You're starting to feel more comfortable and relaxed.

As we're slowly closing our eyes,

Just continue with this connection as you're feeling one with your body,

As your mind and your body are connecting in a relaxing state.

As you allow your feet to relax,

Your shoulders to relax,

Releasing any tension you might be holding onto.

As you start to scan your body,

Center the top of your head,

Going all the way down to between your brows,

Down your neck,

Your shoulders,

Both of your arms,

Your chest,

Your belly,

Pelvis,

Legs,

Your feet.

Slowly breathing and going all the way back up as you do another scan.

And if you feel any tension in any areas,

You could take a moment to breathe a light into that area just to soften.

And you feel your breath just easy and slow.

No need to control anything,

Just let it breathe slowly,

Naturally.

As you continue to breathe,

Inhale and exhale.

As you place your palms on your thighs,

You can place them face up on your thighs or face down on your thighs,

Whatever makes you feel more comfortable and relaxed.

You can notice all the textures of your skin or your clothes,

Just taking it all in.

The warmth of your body.

And not to judge anything that you're feeling,

Just being present in the moment.

Just letting it all go.

Letting go of any anxious feelings or sensations,

Any stress that you might have been carrying around with you.

Just taking a deep breath in.

And letting it all go.

And exhale.

So you're feeling grounded and secure.

There's nothing you need to do,

Nothing you need to think about.

This moment is for you.

Just relax and feel centered.

Just simply being.

Notice how your mind and body is becoming more calm and more centered with each breath that you take.

With each inhale and exhale.

You can just keep breathing in and out at your own pace.

Just nice and slow and steady.

The corners of your mouth can start to go into a smile as you're starting to feel more and more relaxed.

Now we're just going to go through a few affirmations.

You can repeat them silently to yourself.

As you listen and breathe in the calm state that you're in.

As you go deeper and deeper into each moment with each breath.

I feel more relaxed.

I feel calm.

I feel steady.

I am in the moment.

I am present.

I can relax my body and calm my mind.

I can slow down my breath and feel ease.

I can feel myself becoming calmer and calmer.

I feel grounded.

I am secure.

I am at peace.

I feel relaxed.

I feel calm.

I feel steady.

I am in the moment.

I am present.

My body and mind are calm.

My breath is at ease.

I am calmer.

I am grounded.

I am secure.

I am wonderful and at ease.

I bring peace towards me.

Peace fills my soul.

My mind and body are calm.

I radiate light.

I am okay.

Continue to breathe lightly,

Smoothly and feel the energy of these affirmations come over your mind and body.

Slowly bring your awareness into the present moment.

Reacquaint yourself with your surroundings.

Wiggle your toes.

Wiggle your fingers.

When you are ready,

Slowly open your eyes.

Take this peace of calmness with you throughout the day.

Always remember that you can come back to this meditation at any time to bring forth that peace of calmness and peace whenever you might feel stressed or anxious.

Love and Light.
