Welcome,
Welcome.
As we arrive together in this space,
I invite you to get really comfortable,
To perhaps shrug your shoulders back and down,
Sway your hips from side to side,
Maybe take a nice gentle yawn,
Stretch,
And gently come into a relative stillness,
Taking a deep inhale,
Feeling your chest rise,
And as you exhale,
Releasing,
Letting go of that breath,
Taking another deep,
Deep inhale,
Feeling our bodies expand and grow,
And as we exhale,
Letting go,
Surrendering to this moment.
One more like that,
As we inhale,
We expand our chest,
Our body,
Our mind,
And as we exhale,
We release.
We have arrived in this little pocket of time,
There's nowhere else to be,
There's nothing else to do,
And so with that we can rest a little bit more,
We can relax a little bit more,
Surrendering to this present moment,
Noticing how we are arriving,
Noticing how we are holding our bodies,
We're not trying to fix or change,
We're just bringing awareness to our bodies,
How are we holding ourselves in this moment,
Taking a deep inhale,
And exhaling that breath out nice and audibly,
Bringing our awareness to our mind,
The pace of our thoughts,
The texture of our thoughts,
Where our mind is today,
The stories,
The narratives,
The tone,
We're just noticing,
We're not following the narratives,
We're not criticizing or judging,
We're just simply noticing ourselves in this present moment,
Taking a deep,
Deep inhale,
And again sighing that out nice and audibly,
Bringing our awareness to our energy,
Emotionally,
Our state of being,
Noticing our energy levels,
Noticing where our energy is today,
Our energetic field,
Perhaps we're holding on to something that's happened previously,
A conversation,
A responsibility,
A situation,
Anticipating something in the future,
Something to come,
We're holding on to that energetically,
We're not changing,
We're not adjusting,
We're witnessing ourselves in this moment as we are,
Taking a deep,
Deep inhale,
Inhale a little bit more,
A little bit more,
And again audibly releasing that,
Honoring ourselves just as we are in this moment,
Honoring ourselves for showing up,
For making this little moment,
This pocket of time to really connect in with ourselves,
To sit with ourselves gently,
Compassionately,
With kindness,
Knowing that we are enough just as we are,
As we walk this path today,
We are whole in ourselves,
Knowing that we are exactly where we need to be,
May you be blessed with the sacredness of the earth as you move through your day,
Your week,
On this path ahead,
Grá agus bonachtaí,
Love and blessings.
