Hello and welcome to reclaiming your space.
If you're listening to this.
You're likely a teacher or educator of sorts.
And you need a little pause.
Take a quick pause,
A brief quiet between periods.
The space is for you.
Unclench your draw.
And drop your shoulders.
You've been extending so much energy today and you deserve to get some energy back.
We can get some grounding again through our breath.
Breathing is the best medicine.
I welcome you to bring your hands to your thighs.
If you're sitting,
Notice your feet.
On the ground,
Or if you're standing,
Notice your feet.
The ground,
The floor.
Let's take a slow,
Deep breath in through our nose.
Hold your breath.
And exhale slowly out of your nose.
Inhale,
Breathing in,
Opening your heart to all the possibilities of today.
And exhale releasing any negative energy you might be holding on to from your last class or the morning.
Or last night,
Let it go.
It's not serving you right now.
Let's take another deep breath in from the powerful sun,
Because even if we can't see her,
We know she rises every day.
Hold that breath.
And exhale releasing any stale energy that's not serving you so you can be present for your next class.
Let it out easy.
Feel your feet firmly on the floor.
Start to come slowly back into your space.
Remember that you bring so much heart into your room every day.
As you open your eyes and welcome your next class,
Carry this steady,
Open energy with you.
We've got this.
Have a great next period.
