� Compassion breaks.
.
Arriving in this space.
As you are.
Taking a deep breath in.
As you breathe out.
Releasing,
Taking another long breath in and even longer breath out.
Allowing the breath to normalise.
Placing one hand on the heart if that feels right for you.
Or perhaps placing one hand on the other hand if that feels better.
And saying to yourself,
This is a moment of suffering.
All beings suffer.
May I be well.
Becoming aware of the body on the ground.
Noticing the points where the body makes connection with the earth.
Feeling the chest under the hand or the warmth of the hand on the other hand.
And saying once more,
This is a moment of suffering.
All beings suffer.
May I be well.
Feeling once more the warmth of the hand.
The points where the body makes connection with whatever is supporting it.
Taking another long breath in.
Holding,
Breathing out even longer.
Taking another breath like this.
Breathing in.
Pausing.
Breathing out.
Releasing.
Relaxing.
Allowing the hand to rest now.
Bringing it down from the chest or from the other hand.
Perhaps saying an intention to step back into your day.
The warmth,
Compassion for yourself.
And when you're ready,
Coming to the end of this practice.
And moving back in to the day.
