For this meditation you can either be sitting down or laying down.
Bring yourself to a nice comfortable position that's right for you in this moment.
And just start to notice where your breath is.
What your natural breathing pattern is in this moment.
Notice where it's going in your body.
And notice how it's exiting your body.
Just becoming aware and bringing consciousness to your breath.
And noticing if you're deciding to breathe through your nose or through your mouth or both.
And as you're breathing just start to be aware of how your body moves with your breath.
Does your belly rise and fall?
Does your chest rise and fall?
Notice how you're feeling in this moment.
Just by bringing awareness to the breath can calm the nervous system and bring you into the present moment.
Now we're going to take a deeper breath into the body and this time be conscious about your belly,
Taking your breath all the way into your belly and feeling your belly expand.
And then as you exhale just releasing and softening your body.
Take another deep breath into your belly.
Feeling your belly expand and then release and soften as you exhale.
And again deep breath into the body.
And let go,
Release and soften as you exhale.
And then again go back to your rhythm,
What feels right for you.
Just notice again how your body is feeling in this moment.
Notice if you have any thoughts.
And see if you can witness the thoughts becoming the observer,
Becoming the witness,
Separating yourself from the thought.
Knowing that you are not the thought,
The thought is a thought and you are you.
You are a being that has thoughts and you can accept the thought and then let the thought go.
Knowing that we have so many thoughts in every day and knowing that new thoughts will always come in and we can always be the witness to those thoughts and accept that it is a thought,
Just a thought,
It's not real.
And then let it go.
And start to get to know the pattern of your thoughts.
See if they are thoughts about the past or thoughts about the future.
And you can simply label the thought past or future and then let the thought go.
Notice as you are doing this if there is any emotion attached to the thought and again become a witness to the thought and the emotion.
Label the thought and then label the emotion.
This shows acceptance and then you can let them both go.
And each time you let go of the thought or the emotion you are going back into the present moment,
Into peace,
Into calm.
Knowing that a thought is what creates the emotion.
Keep coming back to the present by letting it go.
Alright,
Very Monroe.
Notice the stillness between your thoughts.
And you can keep coming back to your breath to bring you back into the present moment.
Knowing that you've taken this time for you.
You have nowhere else to be and nothing else to do.
When we become the witness,
We become conscious of the fact that this is just a thought.
And we are more than our thoughts.
Bring your awareness into your body.
Knowing that your body works and processes everything without you telling it to.
Your breathing,
Your heartbeat,
Your blood flow.
Where we become aware and conscious of our body,
We deepen our consciousness.
And deepen our peace.
And deepen our trust that our bodies know exactly what to do.
Without us even saying anything or thinking anything.
Knowing how to walk or run or breathe or blink.
Our bodies are very intelligent.
And where we connect to that intelligence,
We find the peace and the calm and the trust.
We can always bring gratitude and appreciation into our mind,
Into our body,
Into our aura.
Gratitude for our body taking us through every single day.
Gratitude to our mind.
Gratitude to our whole being.
And you can say these affirmations in your mind.
I am more than a thought.
I am love.
I am peace.
I have the ability to become the witness of my thoughts.
I am love.
I am peace.
You can listen to this meditation many times to remind yourself that you are more than just a thought.
You are your whole being.
You have all the power you need within you.
And you have all the intelligence within you.
Trust and then you can start to move your body,
Wiggle your toes.
Start to feel the air.
Start to hear any sounds in your environment.
And whenever you're ready,
You can open your eyes.
