Okay,
So one thing we know about stress and anxiety is that when we have it,
Or are feeling overwhelmed,
We are in our heads.
Our thoughts are fuel for our nervous system being activated.
And so what we have to learn how to do is come into our bodies.
So here I am,
I'm on the go,
I'm walking,
I'm moving,
And you can do the same anytime.
You can be walking in between in the hallway or you can be outside.
Either way,
You can practice this.
And here's what we're going to do.
So we,
As we're walking,
We're going to practice feeling our feet on the ground,
Each foot connecting to the ground with each step,
And our breath.
And so we're just going to,
Those are the two things we're going to be focusing on in this practice.
And as we breathe in,
As we're walking and just breathing in,
We're just saying to ourselves,
Arriving,
Arriving,
Arriving.
That's it.
And as we breathe out,
We're saying releasing,
Releasing,
Releasing with each step.
And so what that does is you are literally practicing releasing the anxious energy that's in your body and allowing the earth to just absorb that.
So you're breathing in,
Arriving,
Allowing your mind to arrive in the present moment.
Breathing out,
Releasing.
Releasing that energy into the earth.
So let's practice this together.
And so as we're walking,
Breathing in,
Arriving.
Breathing out,
Releasing.
Breathing in,
Arriving.
Breathing out,
Releasing.
Body softens,
All tension,
All anxious energy and stress get released into the ground,
Absorbed with every step.
Breathing in,
Arriving.
Breathing out,
Releasing.
And you can continue this for however long you need to.
You can practice this on your own.
And of course,
You can always play with noting how you feel on a scale of 1 to 10 prior to doing this practice,
And then how you feel on a scale of 1 to 10 after doing this practice,
And just see what you notice.
But this is a very simple practice that you can take with you and you can do on the go,
Whenever you're moving.
A couple minutes,
Five minutes,
Something like that.
Skipped.
