Welcome to Finding Your Rhythm I invite you to begin to notice your breath Feel the flow of the air of your in breath Is it through your mouth or your nose?
Now I invite you to notice your exhale is the flow of air through your nose or your mouth Just notice lightly Just become aware of what is right now Don't seek to change it,
Just notice Now please begin to keep a count of how long you breathe in for on each in breath For example,
In 2,
3,
4 And now notice how long you breathe out for Just count It may be out,
2,
3,
4,
5,
Or 6,
Or 7 For now it doesn't matter what it is,
Just notice what it is Just notice and learn from your body what feels easy and effortless as a rhythm Notice with awareness and curiosity and count lightly Now choose a rhythm that's most comfortable for you and try to keep to that same rhythm whatever it is It might be in for 5 and out for 5 or in for 4 and out for 6 Just lightly notice the count and keep the rhythm that's most comfortable for you It may help you to notice the pauses between the inhale and the exhale And the pause between the exhale and the inhale These may just be a second or two,
But they are important opportunities to let go of tension Just notice your breath flow Enjoy the rhythm If you lose count or the rhythm,
Don't worry,
It's natural for this to happen Just pick up where it feels most comfortable and find your rhythm again Let the rhythm of your breath flow Feel the breath flow easily,
Smoothly and evenly Feel any tension begin to melt away as your breath flows through your whole body Just count gently until you feel the rhythm take over If you feel too relaxed,
Just shorten the count of the inhale and the exhale by one And if you feel too energised and want more relaxation,
Then increase the counts by one Find your own energising rhythm Let the rhythm of your breath flow I now invite you to focus and keep your rhythmic breathing going for the next three minutes You keep the rhythm and I'll keep the time Let the rhythm of your breath flow Enjoy yourself,
You're doing really well Finding the rhythm is the practice If you lose it momentarily,
You can just find it again Let your breath flow and feel the energy flow through your whole body Let the rhythm of your breath flow Well done Now gently stop counting and let your body find the rhythm it wants without any conscious control by you Bring your attention to your seat or to your feet and feel them ground firmly Notice how you feel,
Are you more positive,
More energised,
Clearer,
Lighter with greater clarity ready to face your day Recognise that this feeling is always available to you,
You just need to find your rhythm and let it flow Bring your attention into the room,
Hear the sounds and sense the smells Open your eyes and see the colours,
Shapes and textures with renewed clarity With gratitude for a multiverse full of clarity,
Energy,
Love and compassion Rise up and walk into your day
