Transcript

Good morning and welcome to this morning's somatic experience.

Today,

We will awaken your body and your mind,

Setting the tone for a successful and fulfilling day.

This practice will take about 10 minutes,

Helping you to ground yourself,

To energize your body,

And to align your intentions.

To get started,

Find a comfortable position,

Either sitting on a cushion or on the floor.

Close your eyes,

And if it feels right,

Then take a deep breath in.

Fill your lungs completely,

Hold for a moment,

And then slowly exhale,

Release any tension or stress from the night.

Keep your awareness at your breath.

Notice the natural rhythm of your inhalations and exhalations.

Feel the cool air as it enters your nostrils and the warm air as it leaves your body.

With each breath,

Imagine drawing in fresh,

Positive energy and releasing any stagnant or negative energy that no longer serves you.

Now,

Gently place your hands on your lower abdomen.

Feel a rise and fall of your belly with each breath.

This area is your center,

Your core,

And with each inhale,

Feel your belly expand and with each exhale,

Feel it contract.

This simple movement of your belly connects you to your inner strength and stability.

Now,

Let's start to wake up the body with some gentle movements.

Slowly roll your shoulders up towards your ears and then back down.

Repeat this a few times,

Feeling the tension melt away with every shoulder roll.

Now roll your shoulders in the opposite direction,

Up and forward.

Notice any differences in sensations.

Now bring your attention to your neck.

Gently tilt your head to the right.

Bring your ear towards your shoulder.

Hold for a moment.

Feel the stretch along the side of your neck.

Slowly bring your head back to center and repeat on the left side.

With each movement,

Breathe deeply and fully.

Now let's energize our spine.

Sit up tall and place your hands on your knees.

Now deeply arch your back and lift your chest towards the sky.

As you exhale,

Round your spine,

Drawing your navel towards your spine.

Continue this gentle cat-cow movement,

Synchronizing with your breath.

Feel the flexibility and strength of your spine with each motion.

Extend your arms out to the sides and gently twist your upper body to the right,

Looking over your right shoulder.

Hold here for a moment,
