Welcome!
We're going to take five minutes to work on coming back into the body.
We're going to do that with a easy technique of using both of our hands and our breath.
So I invite you to come in and be fully present with me by placing both of your feet on the ground wherever you're at and allow yourself to locate your pointer finger of your right hand and then take and press the pointer finger below the left thumb.
We're going to draw an outline of the left hand.
So let's come into the breath,
Eyes open or closed.
Find a gentle fixed gaze if the eyes are going to be open and settling in.
Exhale out all of your air.
Take an inhale and draw a line up and around the left thumb.
Exhale down to the webbing.
Inhale up to the pointer fingertip.
Exhale down.
Inhale up to the middle fingertip.
Exhale down.
Inhale up to the ring fingertip and exhale down.
Inhale up to the pinky fingertip and exhale down the outside of the hand.
Come all the way back to the outside of the thumb.
Inhale up.
Exhale down.
Inhale up.
Exhale down.
Inhale up.
Exhale down.
Inhale up.

Inhale up.
Exhale down.
Coming back to the beginning.
Inhaling up the thumb.
Exhaling down.
Inhaling up the pointer finger.
Exhaling down.
Sitting up tall.
Inhaling up the middle finger.
Exhaling down.
Inhaling up the ring finger.
Exhaling down.
Inhaling up the pinky finger and exhaling down.
Coming back to the very beginning.
Inhale.
Exhale.

Bringing the pointer finger back to the outside of the left thumb.

Exhale.
Again,
Starting from the beginning.
In and out.
In and out.
In and out.
In and out.
In and all the way out.
Allowing the hands to come together in at heart center or a different variation of clasping the hands.
Whatever works for you.
Noticing.
Noticing now how the body feels.
And thanking yourself for taking this opportunity to check in.
Go ahead and allow yourself to take a big inhale in if your eyes are closed.
Slowly opening the eyes.
And then exhale deeply all the way out.
May you have a wonderful rest of your day.
