Transcript

Hello and welcome to today's premeditation body movement exercise.

If you haven't already,

Head to your meditation spot and stand in front of your chair or cushion with your arms and hands hanging weightlessly at your side.

Take a deep breath in and flow your arms from your side up over your head,

Allowing your palms to gently meet overhead,

And when you're ready,

Exhale,

Bringing your arms back down to your side.

Feel free to close your eyes if you feel comfortable to do so as we repeat this movement.

Again,

Inhale as you bring your arms up above your head,

Palms gently touching overhead,

And exhale,

Bringing your arms back to your side.

One last round,

Inhale as you bring your arms up above your head,

Palms meeting,

And then exhale,

Bring your arms back to the side of your body,

And just allow your arms to hang as you stretch out your fingers,

Bringing them to a gentle wiggle.

Wiggle your fingers,

Wiggle your wrists,

Wiggle your arms,

And if you feel inspired,

Feel free to also do some neck rolls,

Or do some swaying with your hips,

Some hip rolls,

Whatever it is that you feel inspired to move right now.

Do it with ease and gently,

And just bring movement to your whole body,

Maybe shake out your hips,

Your legs,

Shake out your knees,

Your feet,

And when you're ready,

Let's move into a twisting motion.

Bring your arms up in front of you,

Shoulder level,

Parallel to the floor,

And gently begin twisting your torso from side to side.

Do as many twists as you need until you feel more relaxed and connected to your body.

You can bring some breathing into this work,

Whatever feels good right now.

Just do it gently,

With ease,

And once you're ready,

Give your body a tight hug,

And take a seat in your meditation spot,

So that we can begin.
