Welcome to Breathwork with Deanna,
Where we connect the flow of breath with the flow of life.
Let's begin by finding a comfortable spot where you can sit down and be undisturbed for a few moments.
Breathwork meditations are better done sitting up,
Keeping your spine straight.
Remove a smart watch if you're wearing one,
So that you will not be disturbed.
We're going to begin by taking a couple of natural,
Nice deep breaths in through the nose,
Holding for a moment,
And exhaling through the mouth.
This is going to help relax the mind and relax the body.
Let's do that together.
Nice deep breath in through the nose.
Just holding it for a moment and gently exhaling through the mouth.
Another nice deep breath in,
Holding it for a moment,
And exhale.
Now we're going to do what is called a three-part breath.
Breathing in in three segments,
Filling the lungs as much as possible.
Breathing in,
Again,
And again,
Holding it for a moment,
And then having a very controlled,
Gentle exhale through the mouth.
And as you're doing a three-part breath in,
I will be saying your affirmation,
And you're able to repeat that in your mind if you like,
Or just listen to my voice.
Both are equally as effective.
And upon the exhale,
We will be releasing what no longer applies.
Today's meditation is about releasing past hurts.
So let's begin.
Remember,
First,
Breath in,
Second,
And third,
To be able to fill the lungs as much as possible.
Gently closing your eyes and beginning to take a breath in through your nose,
Ready?
Holding it for a count of three,
Two,
One,
And gently exhaling through your mouth,
Letting go of any tension.
Let's begin.
Inhale,
Three-part breath.
I am here in this tranquil space.
Holding your breath.
And on the exhale,
Release any destructions or worries.
Now let's embrace the present.
Three-part breath in.
I embrace this moment,
Free of the past.
Holding it,
Three,
Two,
One.
And as you exhale,
Let go of any thoughts that tie you to the past.
Let's do that one again.
Three-part breath in.
I embrace this moment,
Free from the past.
Holding it.
And on the exhale,
Let go of any thoughts that tie you to the past.
Let's release some past hurts.
Three-part breath in.
I release the hold of past hurts.
Holding it.
And on the exhale,
Visualize those hurts leaving your body with each breath.
Three-part breath in.
I release the hold of past hurts.
Holding it,
Three,
Two,
One.
Exhale.
Visualize those hurts leaving your body with each breath.
Moving on to letting go of resentment.
Maintaining your three-part breath.
Affirming on the in-breath.
I free myself from the weight of resentment.
Holding it,
Three,
Two,
One.
And on the exhale,
Imagine resentment evaporating into the air with each exhale.
Next breath in.
I free myself from the weight of resentment.
Holding,
Three,
Two,
One.
And on the exhale,
Imagine resentment evaporating into the air with each exhale.
Moving into forgiveness and healing.
Three-part breath in.
Repeat.
I forgive and heal.
Holding it,
Three,
Two,
One.
And on the exhale,
Picture your heart expanding with forgiveness and healing energy.
Three-part breath in.
I forgive and heal.
Holding it,
Three,
Two,
One.
Exhale.
Picture your heart expanding with forgiveness and healing energy.
Moving into choosing liberation.
Three-part breath in.
I choose liberation and peace.
Holding,
Three,
Two,
One.
And on the exhale,
Release any remaining attachments to the past.
Another nice deep breath in.
I choose liberation and peace.
Holding it,
Three,
Two,
One.
Exhale.
Releasing any remaining attachments to the past.
Moving into self-compassion.
Three-part breath in.
I am gentle with myself.
Holding,
Three,
Two,
One.
And on the exhale,
Letting go of all self-criticism.
Three-part breath in.
I am gentle with myself.
Holding,
Three,
Two,
One.
And on the exhale,
Letting go of all self-criticism.
Allow yourself to gently go back to normal deep breathing.
In through the nose and exhaling through the mouth.
Sit with your body.
Feel where the energy moves.
Do you feel blockages that you can breathe through?
Any emotions coming to the surface?
Simply allow your body to just sit with non-judgment for a few moments.
With your normal breath,
Gently open your eyes.
And allow yourself to take a few moments to reflect on today's experience.
And here's some journaling guidance if you'd love to sit with your journal for a few moments.
Here's the questions that you can sit with.
What emotions came up during this meditation today?
How did I feel to release these past hurts and resentment?
Allow yourself to write down any insights or any realizations that came to you today.
And finally,
What steps can you take to continue your journey of forgiveness and healing?
Remember,
With each mindful breath within your day,
You're continuing to create a space for a lighter heart and a brighter future.
Embracing the newfound sense of peace and reflect on the positive changes that you're nurturing within yourself today and every day.
Remind yourself,
You are a warrior.
And thank yourself for showing up today.
Many blessings.
