If it feels okay,
You can make yourself comfortable or simply stay exactly as you are.
You might begin by noticing the space around you,
Perhaps a sound or something you can see or simply noticing that you are here.
There is no right way to do this.
If it feels comfortable,
You might notice your body,
Any sensation that is present or even the absence of sensation.
There is nothing you need to change.
If it feels helpful,
You can offer yourself these gentle words.
In this moment,
My awareness is in my body in whatever way it shows up.
You might notice how the words land in your body or you can simply let the words exist.
When you are ready,
You can offer yourself another phrase.
In this moment,
I notice what's here in my body just as it is.
If it feels okay,
You might gently notice something around you again,
A sound,
A color or a shape or you can stay with your body or your breath,
Any of these is enough.
When it feels right,
You can offer yourself.
I notice moments of ease or neutrality in my body.
I can be here gently at my own pace.
I notice moments of ease or neutrality in my body.
I can be here gently at my own pace.
As this practice comes to an end,
You might take a moment to notice your body or the space around you,
Staying as present or as distant as it feels right for you in this moment.
When you are ready,
You can gently return to your surroundings in your own time.
Thank you for being here.
