Hi,
My name is Sarah and welcome to this energizing breathwork practice.
Take a moment to arrive into a comfortable seat.
Just start to find a nice slow deep breath in.
And a full deep breath out.
And then just start to let your breath come into its own natural rhythm.
Really starting to pay attention to the body just breathing itself.
Allow yourself to really tune into the details of the breath.
In this moment,
How do you know that your body is breathing?
What indications of the breath do you notice?
Can you feel the temperature of the breath as it slowly comes in through the nose?
And out through the mouth?
Do you notice the texture of the breath?
Rhythm and the pace of the breath.
Expansion of the body as you breathe in.
And the contraction of your body as you breathe out.
Just sit for a moment in this breath awareness.
Allowing your mind to really settle onto the breath.
If at any point in time,
Notice that your mind wanders away.
See if you can bring your awareness back to the details.
The body just breathing itself.
Start to increase the depth and the rate of your breath.
Finding an active inhale.
And a relaxed exhale.
Start to find a rhythm and depth.
Like an expansive wave rolling in and rolling out.
Start to increase the rhythm and the depth of your breath by 1%.
Active inhale,
Relaxed exhale.
And start to slow the breath down.
Start to find a nice slow inhale.
And at the end of the next exhale,
Just allow the breath to go,
Close the mouth down,
Close the mind down.
Drop into your body.
A gentle pause at the end of the breath.
Start to find a nice full deep breath in,
Drawing the breath all the way up towards your collarbones.
When you arrive at the top,
A gentle pause as you hold the breath in.
And then open the mouth side to release.
And then prepare for your second round.
Active inhale,
Relaxed exhale.
Active inhale,
Relaxed exhale.
Your body is relaxed,
Only the breath is working.
And now we're going to slow the breath down.
Start to find a nice slow inhale.
At the end of the next exhale,
Just allow the breath to go,
Close the mouth down,
Close the mind down.
Drop into your body.
A gentle pause at the end of the breath.
Start to find a nice full deep breath in,
Drawing the breath all the way up towards your collarbones.
When you arrive at the top,
A gentle pause as you hold the breath in.
And then open the mouth side to release.
And then prepare for your final round.
Active inhale,
Relaxed exhale.
Active inhale,
Relaxed exhale.
You might notice tingling,
Buzzing or dizziness.
These sensations are normal.
Keep the breath full and deep,
Not fast and intense.
Let the wave roll in and roll out.
In,
Out.
In,
Out.
Begin to slow the breath down.
Start to find a nice slow inhale.
And then let the breath go,
Finding a gentle pause at the very end.
Keeping the mouth closed,
Closing the mind down.
Once again,
Dropping into the body.
Allow your body to become relaxed.
Finding stillness here.
Start to find a nice full deep breath in,
Drawing the breath all the way up towards your collarbones.
When you arrive at the top,
A gentle pause as you hold the breath in.
Start to exhale,
Allowing all of the breath to release from the body.
Once again,
We find a gentle pause here at the end of the breath.
When you feel the urge to breathe,
Just allow yourself to sit in the sensations of your body just for a moment longer.
And start to find a nice slow deep breath in.
And then a full deep breath out.
Let your body return to its natural rhythm of breath,
Just becoming conscious of any sensations that might be moving through.
And then remain here for a few more moments,
Just steeping in the stillness and silence within.
