Come into a comfortable position with your eyes closed or gazing softly down.
With your eyes closed,
You may become more aware of the sounds around you.
Those that are close by and those that are off in the distance.
Using your senses is a great way to come into the present moment.
Bring an awareness to your breath.
Inhaling and exhaling through your nose without controlling your breath.
Just becoming very curious about this neutral act.
Maybe the temperature of the air,
Maybe where the breath goes after your nose,
Your throat,
Your back,
Your chest or your stomach.
Now bring your hands to your lower belly and deepen your breath.
Inhaling and exhaling through your nose.
This time slowly and deeply filling up your lower belly with each breath.
Allow your breath to come back to its natural rhythm and bring your hands back down to your lap.
We will continue like this for one more minute.
I'll keep time.
Use your breath as your anchor.
Anytime you are distracted,
Internally or externally,
Just bring your attention back to your breathing.
Suffered.
You can release your attention to the breath and continue on your day,
Directing your attention to what you value.
Thank you.
