Allow your eyes to comfortably close.
As you do so,
Breathe out down the full length of your body,
Through your open mouth if you like.
Allowing your body to soften and release what it's brought with it here,
And no longer needs to carry.
Make your awareness to where the weight of your body rests,
On the surface directly beneath you.
Give more of your body's weight to its support.
Notice the support is steady.
Sit back onto the steadiness.
In your own time,
Become aware of the play of light and shade through your closed eyelids,
And the ebb and flow of your breath.
Allowing your breath to begin to slow and lengthen.
Notice the sensation as air enters and leaves your nostrils.
The movements your body makes as you breathe.
Notice the expansion of the in-breath and inner stretch.
Notice the release of the out-breath,
A letting go.
Notice your breathing in from the space around you,
And out into it.
Allow everything to be as it is.
Your breath ebbing and flowing.
Each out-breath allowing your body to soften and release.
Let yourself know that it's completely okay to be exactly as you are right now.
Know that everything is in process.
Like the seasons and cycles of nature,
Change is the natural way of all things.
As day follows night,
Winter becomes spring,
And spring turns to summer.
So assimilation,
Healing,
And renewal are part of the natural flow of life.
Know that all the resources you need are there within you already.
Trust in your own growth,
Renewal,
And healing.
As you say the affirmations,
All is well.
All shall be well.
And all manner of things shall be well.
In your own time,
Notice the ebb and flow of your breath.
The sensation of air entering and leaving your nostrils.
Feel the steady support directly beneath your body.
As you do so,
Allow your own words of reassurance and support to come if they wish.
And when you are ready,
You can draw this meditation to a close.
God bless!
