Welcome to the present moment of Nordic Wood relaxation.
Before we begin,
Remind yourself that this time is for you and you alone.
Allow no distractions,
No worries and no to-do lists to interfere with your time.
Take a moment to make yourself comfortable wherever you are.
Maybe strengthen your back or trace gentle circles with the nose,
Relaxing your neck.
Once you've reached a place of stillness,
Begin to deepen your breath.
In through the nose and out through the mouth.
Let's do it once again.
In through the nose and out through the mouth.
Very good.
Find awareness of your breath,
Total awareness in your breath.
Noticing the inhale and noticing the exhale.
Begin to feel the belly expand with each inhale.
Feel the belly contract with each exhale.
Feel the breath coming in through the nostrils and feeling the lungs.
Feel the breath exiting through their nostrils as the lungs deflate.
Relax the breath.
Relax the breath.
Find a feeling of heaviness in the body.
Feel it.
Feel the heaviness.
Feel each part of your body from the toes to the top of the head.
Feel it.
Feel each part of your body from the toes to the top of your head become heavy.
You are so heavy that you sink into the floor.
Find that awareness.
Feel the heaviness.
Feel the heaviness.
Feel the heaviness.
Feel the heaviness.
Now,
Become aware of the lightness in the body.
Awake that lightness in each part of the body from the top of the head to the tips of the toes.
Every part of the body is light and weightless.
The body becomes so light that it might float off the floor.
Be aware of the lightness.
Feel this lightness.
Very good.
Now find the feeling of being cold.
Find that sensation of being chilled to the bone.
Imagine facing the ice wind of winter head on you.
Imagine walking barefoot on the slab of ice.
Your feet are cold.
Your bones are cold.
Your body is cold.
Be aware of that feeling of coldness.
Know the cold.
Now turn the feeling of heat.
Find that experience of heat all over the body.
Imagine a hot,
Humid day.
No wind.
The sun beating on your skin.
Imagine sitting in a sauna.
Warm steam rising and feeling the air with heat.
Be hot.
Feel the heat all over your body.
Be aware of the heat.
Now bring in the feeling of pleasure.
Completely submerge yourself in pleasure.
Relieve any past experience of pleasure,
Either physical or mental.
Be in that moment.
Feel the pleasure.
Be aware of that pleasure.
Now come back to your breath.
Notice the calmness of your breath.
The evenness of your breath.
They inhale.
They exhale.
They inhale.
They exhale.
They exhale.
Open your eyes.
Thank you for your time and thank you for being with us with Nordic Wood relaxation.
