Relaxing Meditation For Stress And Anxiety Relief

A breathing meditation for those days you feel anxious and stressed. Research shows that deep breathing can have a direct effect on the overall activity level of the brain. What this means is that slow, deep breathing stimulates the vagus nerve, which runs from the brain to the abdomen and is in charge of turning off the “fight or flight” reflex. By breathing slower and more deeply from your stomach, you signal your nervous system to calm down.

Let's begin in a comfortable meditative position, Whether it's seated or lying down. Follow the sound of my voice, Close your eyes and relax. Start to slow down and deepen your breathing. Breathe in and breathe out. Breathe in and exhale out. Keep the steady rhythm of relaxed deep breaths. With each breath you relax a little more. Focus on your breath, Feel it fill your belly. As you exhale any physical, Mental and emotional tension gets released with it. All that matters is this moment. This is your time, This is your time out. Breathing out any tension, Deep breath in and exhale out. Relaxing deeper and deeper. As you breathe in, Visualize this calm as a glowing white light showering your head. See and feel this white light flowing through you, From your head down to your neck, Your shoulders, Your back, Down your spine, All the way down to your feet, Your toes. You are embraced in ultimate peace and relaxation. You feel as light as a feather. Your body feels free. You are free of any tension, Any stress. Deeper and deeper calm overcomes you. You are relaxed and you are at peace. Your entire being is love. You radiate love. Deeper and deeper love shines from you. You are love. You are peace. You are calm. You are love. You are peace. You are calm. And now while I remain silent for a couple of minutes, Remember to stay relaxed and aware of this peace and love around you. If your mind wanders, Just refocus on that loving breath of yours until you hear a bell telling you it's time to come out of your meditation. It's time to come back to your breath now. Slowly come back to your body. Deep breath in and exhale out. Whenever you are ready, Open your eyes. Thank you so much for joining me. I hope you feel calm, Relaxed and censored. Namaste.
