Transcript

Take a few moments to settle your body in your chosen position. Allowing your body to become comfortable and at ease. You can start to take a few slower breaths. As you arrive into this moment. Right here, Right now. And start to turn your focus from the external world. Into your inner world. Your inner space. Begin to tune into the sensation of the breath. This breath in this moment. Breathing in through the nose. And breathing out through the nose. Feel the sensation of each breath as it passes through the nostrils. You might notice cooler air with a breath in. And slightly warmer air with the breath out. Allow your attention to gently rest with the breath. As you continue to follow the flow of your breath. In and out. And whenever you notice the mind drifting away. When you realize you can slowly, Gently come back to your breath. Continuous process of forgetting and remembering again. And allowing your awareness to become closer and closer to each breath. And starting now to invite a deeper breath. Of fuller breath. Fill your body with breath. And take another slow conscious breath in. All the way up to the top. And pause here for a moment. Linger in that fullness. And when you're ready, Open your mouth and gently let it all go. You can do this again another time. Slow full breath in. Pause just for a moment. Open the mouth and making a sigh, Let it go. And one last time. Slow, Full breath in. Pause. Sigh to let it go. Have a sense of your body and your chosen position. Notice the support beneath you. And start sensing space around you again. And remember where you are. And now slowly with each breath out, Let your awareness externalize once again. And this practice is now complete.
