If it feels right,
Close your eyes and place a hand or two over your heart.
Notice if this feels grounding.
Notice how this feels to hold your heart.
Follow your breath in and let it go.
Begin to observe yourself arriving here,
Feeling the mind start to slow as you rest here.
All this moment asks of you is to simply be here and set it all down.
Inhale,
Noticing where the mind is getting caught,
Swept away by the unknown,
The what-ifs,
The fear.
My friend,
Most of what we fear and worry about ends up not even happening.
Steady breath in,
Slow,
Steady exhale.
It's time to redefine your relationship with the unknown,
With your hand resting over your heart,
Feel your deep knowing that everything is unfolding in your favor.
The unknown isn't scary,
It's exciting.
The unknown holds limitless possibilities.
Breathe around that,
Inhale,
Allow your mind to drift into all that could go really well,
Feeling into this energy of excitement,
Knowing,
Trust.
What if there's nothing to worry about,
My friend?
You are well-equipped to navigate the unknown.
As you soften here,
Feel that despite the unknown,
You are free to feel peace here.
Allow this calm energy to wash over you,
To hold you.
Whispering to yourself in the quiet of your own mind,
I can endure the unknown.
I trust the unknown.
The unknown is exciting.
Breathe in,
Exhale.
Feel this surrender,
This ease within your mind,
Your heart,
Your body.
Feel this peace in the present moment.
What is something that you need to hear?
Whisper it to yourself right now.
Observe the shift within you.
Maybe press your hand into your heartbeat one more time,
Feeling the life within you,
The steady rhythm of your heart.
Carry this peace with you,
This calm with you,
Into the unknown.
Find a soft smile here,
Blinking your eyes open only when you're ready.
One more collective breath.
Inhale.
Exhale.
From my heart to yours.
