Find a comfortable seat and close your eyes if that feels safe. Rest your hands on your lap or belly and take a slow, Deep breath in. Hold it for a moment and exhale slowly. Let's do that two more times. Deep breaths, Full in-breath, A brief hold, And long exhale. Once more on your own. Now imagine a notepad in your mind. This notepad is for your thoughts, Tasks, Worries, And responsibilities. For the next few moments, Silently name the things that are on your mental list. The tasks you need to do, The worries about your kids or partner, The things you feel responsible for. Name them one by one. Now visualize placing each task, Worry, Or emotion on that notepad. You're not trying to solve anything or fix it, But just notice it and set it aside. Take a deep breath in, And as you exhale, Imagine your mental load lifting slightly off your shoulders. Notice the space that opens in your mind. Repeat silently, I am allowed to set this down. I am allowed to take a break. I am enough. Continue this visualization for a few more cycles, Letting your thoughts settle on the notepad and releasing them with your breath. Now take one last deep inhale, Feeling the release, And exhale fully. Gently wiggle your fingers and toes. Open your eyes when you're ready, Carrying this sense of lightness and relief with you into your day. Thank you for being here. Thank you for your practice.
