Whatever you're feeling right now, You don't have to hide it, You don't have to fix it, You don't have to explain it. This is a space to breathe with what you feel, To stay close to it, Without being overwhelmed by it. And so starting by finding a comfortable position, You can sit or lie down, Somewhere your body feels supported, Letting your arms rest naturally, And closing your eyes if that feels okay. Or simply softening your gaze towards the floor, Taking a slow breath in through your nose and exhaling through your mouth, Letting it be soft, And starting to notice what's present in your body. Maybe you notice emotions, Maybe you feel different sensations, Maybe you just notice the flow of energy through your system. Whatever's here, Letting it be here, You're not trying to change it, Just letting it breathe. With each in-breath, Breathing into any area where you feel emotion or sensation, And as you exhale, Letting it soften, Even just a little more. No force, Just space, Inhaling, Noticing what's alive in you, Exhaling, Softening into deeper ease, And continuing in this way, Letting the breath be your companion. You can even place a hand on that area, Offering it attention, Warmth, Care, Letting your body know, I'm here with you, And if thoughts come, No judgement, Just innocently returning to the breath and the emotion or sensation once you notice. You don't need to understand what you feel, Just staying with it, Witnessing it, Breathing with it, Letting it move at its own pace, Continuing with that breath, Letting each breath say, You're allowed to feel this, To be with this. You don't have to hold it all alone, A few more breaths like this, Each breath inviting your body to soften and release, Creating more and more space, Let presence do what words cannot, And then simply letting that practice go, And returning to your normal breath, Just resting right here, Noticing how you feel. You don't have to feel better, You stayed with you, And that in itself is healing, Taking as much time as you want or need in this space, Only when you're ready, Only when you're ready.
