Find a comfortable position lying down.
Let your body settle into the support beneath you.
Let the arms rest away from the body,
Palms open.
Take a slow,
Easy inhale and a soft,
Complete exhale.
Allow the body to begin to unwind.
Feel the natural rhythm of your breath.
No need to change it,
Just notice.
Inhale a gentle rising.
Exhale a soft releasing.
With each breath out,
Imagine melting a little more into the ground.
Let the breath remind you that you are here,
Safe,
Supported,
Held.
Bring your awareness to the space between your eyebrows,
Soften.
Let your attention move slowly through the body.
Relax the jaw,
The tongue,
The throat.
Soften across the collarbones,
The chest,
The heart space.
Feel a warm wave of ease move down both arms to the fingertips.
Bring awareness to the back body,
Shoulder blades,
Rib cage,
Low back,
Settling,
Softening.
Release through the belly,
The hips,
The glutes.
Let both legs grow heavy.
Relaxing through the thighs,
Knees,
Calves,
Ankles,
And all the way to the tips of the toes.
Your whole body is at ease,
Resting in stillness.
Imagine a warm golden light above you,
Soft,
Comforting,
Steady.
On your next inhale,
Let that light pour down gently,
Filling your body with gratitude.
Gratitude for the breath that moves effortlessly in and out.
Gratitude for the body that carries you through your days.
Gratitude for the people,
Places,
And small moments that support you,
Seen and unseen.
Let this golden light collect at the heart.
Feel it expanding outward,
Warm,
Spacious,
Steady.
Rest here,
Floating in this quiet place of appreciation.
Take a slow breath in and a full breath out.
Feel the ground beneath you again.
Begin to gently wiggle the fingers and toes.
Notice how your body feels now,
Softer,
Clearer,
More spacious.
When you're ready,
Slowly roll to one side,
Pausing in gratitude for this moment of rest.
Then ease your way back up,
Carrying this quiet,
Steady warmth with you into the rest of your day.
