And using whatever you need to support yourself. To feel safe and secure. So whether you're lying, Sitting or standing. If it feels right for you at this moment. Closing the eyes or having a downcast gaze. So the H of hearts. Allowing yourself to feel supported by the ground as we bring our awareness to the heart centre. So gently transitioning to that place which lies equally between the front and the back. The left and the right side of the chest. Our heart space. Our heart centre. Perhaps about the size of a tennis ball. And without judgment, Just noticing what's here. Our emotions and our feeling tone. And the E. Knowing that whatever is here, It's enough. We are good enough.
