Before we begin,

Let's take a few cleansing sighs to release and to let go.

Taking a deep breath and exhaling a sigh out of the mouth.

And two more like this.

Being comfortably either cross legged or on a chair.

Lengthening your spine.

Feeling present,

Poised and relaxed.

Softening your gaze or gently closing down your eyes.

Relaxing your forehead and softening your jaw.

Feeling loose.

Relaxing your shoulders.

Realizing your weight and the force of gravity being supported by the ground beneath you.

Imagining roots growing from you into the earth like a tree.

Place one hand upon your belly and place the other hand upon your heart.

Beginning to breathe into your belly.

Expanding your belly like a balloon.

Lengthening it against your hand as you inhale.

Slowly and gently releasing to exhale.

As you breathe into your belly,

Imagine the energy drawing up these roots into your belly.

Letting go of each exhale.

Exhaling into your belly for a count of four.

Holding for a count of two.

Calmly exhaling for a count of six.

Exhaling one,

Two,

Three,

Four.

Hold one,

Two.

Exhale one,

Two,

Three,

Four,

Five,

Six.

Counting at your own rhythm.

Inhaling for four.

Holding for two.

Exhaling slowly for a count of six.

Exhaling slowly for a count of six.

Expanding your belly as you inhale.

Exhaling the energy up your roots.

Exhaling slowly for a count of six.

Filling up with fresh oxygen with every inhale.

Letting go all the stagnant carbon dioxide and emotions as you exhale.

Exhaling slowly for a count of six.

Now if you feel comfortable extending your inhale for a count of six.

Expanding up from your belly and into your heart.

Widening the ribs and opening the heart.

Drawing the energy up your roots for a count of eight.

Inhaling up your roots into your belly and all the way up to your heart for a count of six.

Holding for a count of three.

Exhaling for a count of eight.

Breathing gently,

Slowly and deeply.

For the next three breaths,

Imagine you are breathing in the essence of peace up your roots into your belly and holding peacefulness.

Before you exhale and let go.

Exhaling slowly for a count of six.

Breathing in for a count of six.

Holding for a count of three.

Exhaling for a count of eight.

For the next few breaths,

Inhaling the essence of kindness all the way up your roots expanding your belly and your ribs and holding kindness in your heart.

Breathing kindness resonate through all of your cells.

Exhaling slowly for a count of three.

And for this last few rounds of breath,

Inhaling joy all the way up your roots,

Your belly,

Your ribs and holding it in your heart.

Bringing a smile within your heart and to your face.

Allowing your whole being to resonate with joy.

Allowing your whole being to resonate with joy.

As you begin to relax the count of the breath,

Breathing at your own natural rhythm.

Resting in loving awareness of peace,

Kindness and joy.

Allowing your whole being to resonate with joy.

Allowing your whole being to resonate with joy.

Feeling free to rest in this peace for as long as you wish.

Have a beautiful day.

Thank you.
