Hello sweet beings. It's an honor to spend a few moments with you here. So just taking a moment and noticing where you are. Just looking around. Feeling the space that you're in. Seeing any colors, Shapes, Textures. What is the quality of the air? Noticing any scent or scents. Feeling the temperature. Just noticing whether you're sitting or standing. Just drawing your awareness and attention all the way down. Down. Down to your feet. Taking a deep breath. Letting it go with a nice vocal sigh is helpful. Let's do two more like that. Breathing in through the nose. Letting it go with a nice vocal sigh. You can do a hum or you can open the mouth. Try a different way this time. Breathing in all the way into the belly. Hold it at the top and let out a nice vocal sigh. And then just letting the breath restore to its natural rhythm. An extra sigh always helps me. And then we're going to just take a moment here to self-regulate. This is a very quick practice that you can do at any moment, Any time, Anywhere. Whether you're sitting or standing, Just bringing awareness to your feet or your seat. And it starts like this. We place a hand on the heart. And placing a firm but gentle hand on the heart. There's a lot of nerve endings in the heart center here, So we're engaging the vagus nerve. We're putting some gentle pressure here, Saying we're safe. We've got ourselves. We've got. I got you. I've got you. Yeah. You can place your hand or just rub a little in your heart center. Just offering some care and grounding here. So filling your feet or your seat on the ground or the floor. Placing a hand on your heart. And we're going to take a big, Deep breath all the way down. Filling your belly, Filling your lungs all the way up. And then you're going to take one more sigh. Okay, So filling through the nose. And then just noticing. You can gently close the eyes if that feels right for you or lower your gaze, But just noticing the quality of your experience in this moment. And you can do that three times. You can do it as many times as you need to recenter, To ground and stabilize yourself. Again, Feeling your feet on the ground, Your feet or your seat on the ground, Placing a hand on the heart and taking a big, Deep breath and sigh. To recenter, To self-regulate, And just bring yourself back to the present moment. You are loved. You are more than worthy. Go be the love that you want to see in the world. Thank you. Thank you.
