Inhale and exhale,
Fill your lungs with life force energy and slowly release.
And lift yourself these next few moments to cultivate self-awareness and compassion.
Because my love,
You deserve nothing less.
You deserve to pause,
To feel and be in awe of your breath and the vessel that it channels through.
Right now there is nothing more important than this,
Than you.
So my love,
I invite you.
I invite you to soften,
Whether you be in stillness or in gentle movement.
Find your comfort as you are and really take your time to do so.
Begin to smooth the muscles of your forehead.
Begin to unclench your jaw.
To slowly release the tension you've been carrying in your shoulders and heart space.
Take another deep breath when you're ready.
Softening even more with each new inhale and exhale.
Notice how that feels to consciously breathe.
Notice each point of the body that comes alive with the in-breath and each point of the body that softens with the out-breath.
Truly begin to notice and feel any other sensations this breath offers you in this moment.
This breath of yours is a gift,
A sacred offering of love to the vessel that is your body.
The vessel that is you.
This breath is your life force,
Your prana,
Your chi.
How does your body receive this gift?
How does your body receive this breath?
Listen to the rhythmic wave of life force channeling through you.
Listen to the way it guides your awareness back home to self,
To soul.
There are so many layers of your body seamlessly working together in this moment to gift you the experience of this breath,
This life.
A cosmic dance between stardust and cells gliding and unfurling together to weave the magic that is your breath.
Do you feel it?
The magic you already hold within?
Do you feel it?
Take another deep breath when you're ready and just feel.
For these next few moments I invite you to join me in holding deep reverence for the breath and body that is yours.
A few moments in your day to pause and to appreciate yourself exactly as you are.
The living,
Breathing being that is the container for your consciousness.
I invite you right now to remember your magic.
To remember how powerful your beautiful body is.
Your body is the vessel that allows you to breathe here right now.
Your body is the vessel that allows you to feel the elements around you.
To feel the warmth of the sun,
The touch of a loved one.
Your body is the vessel that allows you to explore this earth,
To taste your favorite meal,
To smell your favorite flower.
Your body is the vessel that allows you to experience everything that this moment has to offer you.
And there is magic to be found and honored within you,
Especially right now.
Some days the depth of that magic is harder to discover than others.
But we begin to remember by honoring the breath.
We start here with the inhale and the exhale that flows through you right now.
This breath is sacred.
You are sacred.
So my love,
With each new breath,
I invite you to remember how magical and powerful you are.
How unbelievably divine your body,
Your vessel,
Simply is in this moment.
Even if only for your ability to breathe in the present.
You are sacred.
This breath is sacred.
Bathe in this deepening reverence for your body.
Because this moment is your opportunity for self awareness and compassion.
This moment of being is yours to use as you need.
Inhale and exhale.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Breathe out.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
