If you wake up feeling anxious or nervous for the day ahead, practice this morning stretch and breathe meditation. In this grounding practice, you will embrace gratitude and connect with a 3 part breath. In this 3 part breath you will be incrementally guided to breathe into your belly, ribs and chest and breathe out releasing the air from your chest, ribs and belly. The instruction is intentionally slow to bring a mindful awareness to your experience; however, please breathe at a pace that feels right for you. Next, you will move into some seated gentle neck, shoulder and side body stretches to help you gently calm and soothe the mind and body. This will be followed by a brief visualization of recalling a joyful moment to help inspire those similar feelings for your day and your priorities ahead.
