Welcome.
Lie down on your back.
Softly close your eyes.
Open your mouth wide and take a slow deep breath in.
And a slow full breath out.
As you begin to follow the sound of my breath,
Breathe in and out.
This is the ah-ha breath,
Making a gentle ah sound as you breathe in.
And a ha sound as you breathe out.
No pause between your inhales and exhales.
A looping,
Connected breath.
And see if you can find a way to bring more air into your body.
Filling yourself up with life force energy.
And continuing to breathe like this,
Finding your own rhythm and pace.
Begin to place your attention to the centre of your heart.
And give yourself permission to feel what's there.
Feeling all of it.
I just want you to know you're doing such a wonderful job.
You are strong.
You are beautiful.
You are loved.
Breathe deep.
Allowing this breath to flow through your whole body.
Following you up with a brilliant bright light.
Becoming radiant.
Luminous.
Breathe deep.
And if you feel the need to move your fingers or toes,
Maybe let out a sigh.
And take a deep breath in.
And hold your breath.
And repeat the same thing that you Indigenous people have done before.
And slowly exhale.
Come back to your natural breathing.
Thank you for breathing with me today.
