This simple meditation enables a gentle shift into present awareness by counting the breaths from 1 to 10. In this version, I have extended the exhalation to amplify the calming effect on heart rate variability and flight or fight response. If at any time you find you have drifted from the count, simply start again at the count of 1. I guide the first ten breaths and have extended the track for you to find your own rhythm and continue for a longer sit.
