As you inhale,

Find expansion through your belly,

Your ribs,

Your collarbones.

As you exhale,

Melt everything down.

Keep taking a few intentional breaths.

On your next inhale,

I want you to inhale as much air as you possibly can.

Pausing at the top without releasing anything.

Taking one more sharp inhale.

Let go of any clenching.

Just release.

Gradually returning to your normal breath.

I want you to think of three things you are grateful for.

It doesn't have to be anything complicated.

If your hands are still placed on your eyes,

Gradually think about lifting finger by finger as you gently peel away your hands and maybe move them beside you or place one hand on the heart,

One hand on the belly.

Gently blink your eyes open.

Take this feeling of grounding and gratitude with you for the rest of your day or your evening.
