This is a guided practice for beginners and for those who want to train themselves to relax more through breath work. You will learn about the breath, the actual process of breathing and how focusing on the breath in order to relax helps you to enter spontaneous states of meditation. The breath is one of the most powerful tools we can use to positively change our physiology, mind, thoughts, energy state, emotions, and spiritual state. By learning to observe our breath and its movement with focus and detachment, we learn to become the 'observer' and to also manage the various physical, mental, emotional, energetic, and spiritual processes to achieve our highest and best good, instead of reactively, in response to external sensory stimuli.

Transcript

Meditation,

Breathing.

Find a comfortable place where you can sit on a chair or on the ground or simply lay down.

Close your eyes and intend to relax.

Exhaling through your nose,

Exhaling out of your mouth,

Letting go of all tensions on the physical,

Mental and emotional level of your being.

Focusing your awareness at the nostrils on your breath.

If you find yourself distracted in the process of breathing,

Simply notice that you have become busy with thoughts,

Involved in your emotions and come back to the breath.

Observing the inflow and the outflow of your breath at the nostrils.

Watching the breath moving in,

Into your nostrils,

Into your throat,

Down into your lungs.

And as you exhale,

Watching the breath moving out of your lungs,

Into your throat and out of your nostrils.

Intending for the breath to relax.

Flowing down,

Lengthening your breath.

Intending for the breath to be equal on the inhale and the exhale.

You're not forcing,

You're not straining in any way.

You're simply intending to balance your breath.

Experiencing the breath flowing through both nostrils equally.

Intending for the flow of breath to become smoother,

More rhythmic.

Becoming aware of any thoughts or any emotions that surface through this process and coming back to the breath.

Flowing down,

Lengthening the breath.

Enjoying the rhythmic and balanced quality of your breath.

Feeling the body relax more,

The mind become more quiet as you continue to focus on your breath.

Intending for the breath to become harmonious,

Balanced.

Enjoying this deep inner peace,

This quietness.

Slowly begin to come back,

Deepening your breath,

Feeling yourself inside your body,

Wiggling your fingers and your toes,

And gently opening your eyes.
