Transcript

Find a comfortable position where you can relax completely.

Close your eyes and begin to take slow,

Deep breaths.

Inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth.

As you breathe,

Imagine a gentle,

Soothing light entering your body with each inhale.

This light represents calmness,

Peace and relaxation.

As you exhale,

Imagine all of your stress and tension leaving your body in the form of a dark cloud.

Watch as this cloud dissipates into the air,

Taking all of your stress with it.

Now with your attention to your shoulders,

On your next exhale,

Allow them to drop and relax completely.

Bring your attention to your jaw,

Allow it to soften and relax.

Draw your attention to your hands,

Feel each muscle relax.

Take notice of your stomach,

Allow it to fully soften.

Next,

Draw attention to your legs,

Allow them to relax and soften with each breath you take.

Allow each part of your body to fully relax with each exhale.

Repeat these affirmations silently.

I release all stress and tension.

I am calm and at peace.

I allow myself to relax.

I release all stress and tension.

I am calm and at peace.

I allow myself to relax.

If any thoughts or worries come up,

Acknowledge them and then let them go with your next exhale.

Return your focus to your breath and the calming light filling your body.

Take one more deep breath,

Filling yourself with peace.

When you are ready,

Slowly open your eyes.

Take a moment to notice how relaxed and calm you feel and know that you can return to this state whenever you need.
