Guided Meditation: Settling The NS Into Stillness

Use this guided meditation to activate the parasympathetic nervous system. When the nervous system is in the parasympathetic nervous system state, the body is able to function normally, as well as repair and regenerate.

In modern culture, our busy lifestyle often makes it difficult to flip back to the parasympathetic state once the sympathetic has been activated, making it easy to experience chronic over-activation of the fight or flight nervous system.

Start to find a comfortable position for your body. So just explore your props, Maybe a cushion under your seat and also allow a little bit of free movement through the body so maybe the shoulders roll out or your head might tip down. Your eyes are closed as you start to arrive here inside your tissues, Your joints, Your fuller breaths. Might take a really big breath into your spine, Feeling it lengthen up as well as sinking your hips down heavy into the earth. You big breaths to open up the chest and the heart space. As you really connect to yourself as you are in this moment. You're traveling your attention inward through your layers into your middle and sensing how you feel. There may be words or it might be wordless. Just breathing the sensations and emotions of your body right now. And then a sense of allowing everything to be as it is. Keeping the heart open, Let the rest of your body soften. Scanning your body for any little sticky spots and either offer them movement, Breath or relaxation. Travel down into the belly, Swirling your breath in the sides and the bottom of your belly. Expanding out the back and the front of your belly. As a smile softens through your cheeks and your face. Almost done. Good. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
