Hello, Beautiful. Thank you for being here with me right now. Take one slow breath in. And then let it out through your mouth as your eyes close. Your body may be still. What your mind does not. Scanning ahead. Planning, Replaying. Predicting outcomes that haven't happened yet. The next flight. The next meeting. Next conversation. Next decision. And the mind thinks. If it thinks hard enough, It can control what's coming. Three. Slow and gently. And slowly bring attention. On to the rhythm of your breath. Let it bring you right here into this moment. Breathing in. Breathing out. Right now, Nothing is happening. No conversation is unfolding. Now presentation is beginning. No cake. Is closing. In this exact moment, You are simply here. Notice where your thoughts are pointing. You're reaching into the future. Trying to solve it. So gently bring your attention back to your breath. Feel the air move in and out. Over and over again. You can silently say to yourself, Breathe in every time you breathe in. Breathe out. Every time you breathe out. This gives your brain a job to do that focuses you here in the present moment. The future is not asking anything of you right now. The only thing that exists. Is this inhale? In this exhale. Imagine your thoughts as planes taking off in the distance. You see them. You hear them. But you don't have to board them. Let one thought rise. And notice it. And then let it fly away like that plane. Overthinking feels urgent. It feels important. But you are allowed to stop. Solving. You are allowed to rest your mind. You are allowed to not know what happens next. Place one hand gently on your chest if you can. And feel the steadiness there. Your body is safe. Take one final breath in. And exhale slowly. Feel your mind continue to soften. And your body continues. Just settle. What's next for you will meet you. When it arrives. And you will be ready. For now. Let it all go. And be. Namaste. Beautiful.
