Mindful Minutes
by Brenda Rock
A short mindful practice of counting and breath. There is a pause in between where you have time to count and breathe with your own breath and at your own pace. Gently bringing you back feeling calmer and more balanced.
Transcript
Sit in a comfortable position with the back straight,
Shoulders relaxed,
Hands resting on your knees and eyes closed.
Breathe naturally.
Try not to control your breathing.
Breathe in and out of your nose.
It's okay to breathe through your mouth if you have a cold and try to use your everyday breath.
We are going to mentally count each breath in and each breath out up to 10.
Try not to think about anything else,
Only counting your breath.
If you lose count,
Become distracted or if your mind begins to wander,
Calmly return to the counting.
Start at the beginning again if this happens.
So counting in your head.
The first breath in is 1.
The first breath out is 2.
The second breath in is 3.
And the second breath out is 4.
Once you have reached 10,
Return to 1 and start again.
You may begin if you have not started already and I will let you know when to stop.

Slowly begin to become aware of the sounds you can hear around you.
Wiggle your toes and then wiggle your fingers.
And let your gaze come to the floor as you slowly open your eyes.
Sit quietly and say to yourself,
I am in charge of how I feel and today I am choosing happiness.
