Settle in and begin to breathe in slowly and then exhale.
Maybe you're sitting in a chair,
Maybe you're lying down,
But go ahead and close your eyes and take another deep breath in and let it out.
And as you do,
I want you to notice what's going on for you right now in your body.
Maybe there's tension.
Notice where it is.
In your upper body,
Maybe you're lower.
Maybe there's emotions present.
Check in with your energy level.
And if you had to give yourself a number from 1 to 10 of how you're feeling right now,
What would it be?
Now,
As your eyes are closed,
Begin to come into your present body,
Opening your senses.
Notice the sounds around you.
Are they near or maybe they're far away?
How loud are they?
Are they pleasant?
Just notice what you hear.
Now,
Let's turn our focus to how the air feels on your skin.
Is it cool?
Maybe it's warm.
Start to feel the weight of your clothes on your body.
And even with your eyes closed,
Imagine that you're gently widening your awareness,
Almost like opening a curtain.
And just for today,
I want you to notice what is going on around you.
And continue to breathe in gently and release it all at your own pace.
And as you do,
I will give you some just for today affirmations.
You can repeat these quietly to yourself or say them out loud.
Whatever feels supportive for you right now.
Just for today,
I allow myself to notice what's beautiful,
Even if life is messy.
Just for today,
I will allow myself to notice what's beautiful,
Even if life is messy.
Just for today,
I let small moments count.
Just for today,
I let small moments count.
Just for today,
I release the belief that I have to hustle for peace.
Just for today,
I release the belief that I have to hustle for peace.
Just for today,
I allow goodness to reach me.
Just for today,
I allow goodness to reach me.
Just for today,
I soften my focus on what's missing and notice what's here.
Just for today,
I soften my focus on what's missing and notice what's here.
And just for today,
I am open to being surprised by something good.
And just for today,
I'm open to being surprised by something good.
Now continue to breathe and imagine you're strengthening a part of you that receives.
That part of you that receives.
You're not grabbing,
You're not chasing,
You're receiving.
Like sunlight reaching a leaf,
It doesn't strain,
It's just open to the possibility.
And just for today,
Allow yourself to receive all the blessings and amazing moments that are coming your way.
Now as you're coming back into the room,
You feel your fingers,
You feel your toes,
And check in with your body again.
On that scale from 1 to 10,
How are you feeling now?
No matter the change,
Your nervous system has just learned something important.
You can shift it gently from wherever you are right now.
Now I want you to have an awesome rest of your day.
