Welcome to this gratitude yoga nidra.
Take your time to settle in.
Find a quiet space and a comfortable position.
Resting deeply into the support beneath you.
Sense your breath.
The air flowing in and out of the nose.
Allow your face to soften.
And welcome the body and the mind to come into rest.
Soften into the jaw.
Relax the tongue.
The cheeks and the eyebrows.
Your eyes like pools of water.
Your ears soft.
Seeing the rise and fall of the breath in and out of the body.
Inhaling a sense of gratitude for this time and this moment.
Exhaling and letting go.
Inhaling a sense of gratitude for your body and your practice.
Exhaling and letting go.
Allow the sensation of gratitude to rest deeply in your heart.
And as you exhale let this deep gratitude wash over your body.
I am loving and I am loved.
I am deserving and I am grateful.
I have all and I am all that I need.
We'll now scan the body with deep gratitude and thanks for each part.
You may even mentally whisper thank you as we arrive at each part.
We begin at the nose.
The air in and out of the nose.
The prana.
Life force itself.
The lips.
Inside the mouth.
The tongue.
Teeth.

And to analyse.
To dream and imagine.

I have all and I am all that I need.
Taking our breath deeper now.
Inhaling a sense of gratitude for your body and for this moment.
Exhaling and radiating gratitude.
Outwards.
Expanding out from the physical body.
Inhaling a sense of gratitude for this time and this moment.
Exhaling and radiating outwards.
Spend a moment here contemplating this gratitude.
For all that you have in your life.
I am loving and I am loved.
I am deserving and I am grateful.
I have all and I am all that I need.
Slowly awakening the body.
Wiggling fingers and toes.
Grateful for this moment.
This body.
This mind.
Slowly awaken the body.
Take your time.
Consider what you are grateful for in your life today.

With loved ones.
Let it be known.
With love and gratitude.
Thank you.
