Transcript

We'll begin just by taking a few big deep breaths So just inhaling through the nose Open mouth exhale sighing it out letting go Go ahead and do that a few more times Getting that breath flowing When we take these deep breaths, It's also a signal to our body It's okay to begin to unwind and release. I Know that things might feel a little bit stressful a little bit overwhelming and you may be feeling that anxiety creeping in But we're gonna take some time we're gonna protect our peace You may taking one more deep breath here Really sighing out on that exhale and now check in with how you're feeling today Without judgment Just check in How am I feeling? What am I feeling What am I experiencing right now in this moment? And now check in with your thoughts What thoughts are in my mind? What am I thinking about that's adding to my stress and my anxiety? Again looking without judgment Just what thoughts? Are moving or maybe racing through your mind right now Now give yourself permission to take those feelings and take those thoughts and set them aside just for a few minutes Maybe you visualize setting them in a jar and placing it beside you or in a box packing it away Now begin to slow down your breath Slowing it down Extending the inhale and the exhale just by a little bit Even like 1% It's getting the full breath in and that complete breath out without pushing or forcing Just letting it be effortless yet full and now in your mind's eye Imagine a white light that's beginning to form a bubble around you This light begins at the top of your head and slowly it begins to move down your body Creating this little protective cocoon around you It's taking your time breathing constructing this white light bubble all around you With every breath that you take This bubble it gets bigger It gets stronger and brighter It's focusing on this little Barrier this cocoon that goes all around you Creating a protective bubble and then once your bubble is complete Let's continue to breathe letting it grow and expand become stronger with every single breath And doing this until you feel like your bubble it's nice and strong You feel like it's complete and then bring your awareness back to your body and your existence Feeling yourself just sitting in this protective bubble This bubble is blocking out any stress any worry any negativity any Chaos that's happening outside All of that stays outside of the bubble. It can't get in On the inside of the bubble is just you and your peace You just enjoy some time here in this bubble sitting quietly Knowing that it can't Be protruded or penetrated by any anxiety any intrusive thoughts Anything Within your little bubble you are safe. You are calm You are peaceful And as you sit and breathe in this bubble You can practice a few rounds of your daily mantra On the inhale thinking I protect my peace and on the exhale only good comes into my space Inhaling I protect my peace and exhaling only good comes into my space Continuing with this mantra if you'd like As you give yourself the gift of a few more quiet minutes sitting in this protective bubble Letting all the stress and worry the chaos the anxiety Let all of it be outside of that bubble as you protect your peace And honor your need for stillness For calm For tranquility Just taking one more long moment here In your little bubble It's taking a moment to say something kind to yourself And we'll begin to return to our bodies to the moment by inhaling through the nose Open mouth exhale sigh it out I'm beginning to reawaken It's ending your meditation practice And if you do like to journal you could write down and reflect on five simple things you could do today To continue to protect your peace Thank you so much for joining me today for this practice

What a simple yet effective way to bring mindfulness and peace to our lives. I have done a few practices from this instructor these past 3 days in a row. I find her tracks inspirational, calming and helpful above all. I recommend this instructor to everyone. Thank you.

This meditation totally reset my morning. I woke feeling anxious and irritated at the perceived emotional labor that’s been demanded of me, but this meditation helped me to put it aside and recognize I only take on what I allow myself to take on. Saving this one in my toolkit for sure!

Great
