Hello,

Paschal Indy here.

Here's a short compassion practice designed to help us evoke positive emotions.

For the next few minutes,

We'll be imagining ourselves in a safe space.

So first of all,

Finding a comfortable sitting,

Standing,

Or lying position.

And taking a nice,

Long,

Deep breath.

And now bringing to mind a place we feel safe.

This could be a place that we've actually been to,

Like a beach or a forest,

Or even our cozy bed.

Or this could be a place that we're imagining somewhere we'd like to go to.

So making a choice about where our safe space will be for this practice.

What do we see in this place?

Are we in nature?

At home?

What can we hear?

The ocean?

Or birds,

Perhaps?

How does it feel in our bodies?

Can we feel the warmth of the sunshine,

Perhaps?

Can we smell anything pleasant?

Taste anything pleasant?

Soaking in all of these qualities.

Contentment.

Ease.

Warmth.

And any other qualities we feel we need.

And resting there.

And if you can,

If you like,

You can continue.

Perhaps pausing at times during your day and remembering this safe space.

Thanks for taking time to reconnect.
