Welcome.
Arrive on your back.
In a comfortable position.
Take a moment.
To adjust your body.
So you can fully relax into the support beneath you.
Whether that's your bed,
A yoga mat.
Or the Earth itself.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Close your eyes if that's available to you.
Eliminating any visual distractions in your space.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Begin to feel your attention moving inward.
Away from your to-do list.
Away from the stressors.
And little anxieties that arise throughout the day.
Or perhaps it is a bigger weight.
That hangs over your head like a heavy cloud.
Allow it to dissipate in the dappled rays of the golden sun.
Feel the sun's warmth against your skin.
As the clouds disperse.
The sun's energy spreads more evenly.
Enveloping you in a blanket of warmth.
You soften and melt into the bed of sand beneath you.
Feeling the tiny grains mold to your body.
Cradling each muscle.
Each bone.
Feeling the earth's heartbeat.
Pulse through you.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Inhale fully.
Exhale completely Draw your attention.
To the gentle warmth of the waves that play around your toes.
The water laps up to your ankles.
And back out again.
If it's comfortable for you.
Allow the water to wash up to your calves.
And back out again.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Feel the warmth of the sun again on your relaxed arms.
Allow the water to move up to your fingers.
Your wrists your elbows.
Your shoulders.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Inhale,
Squeeze little fists with your hands.
Exhale,
Release.
Inhale,
Squeeze little fists,
Hugging every muscle toward the bone.
Exhale.
Let go.
Inhale,
Squeeze fists,
Hug in.
Exhale.
Release Bring your right hand to your belly.
Your left hand to your heart.
Allow the breath to fill your chest,
Expanding on the inhale.
Softening on the exhale.
Sink the gentle rush.
Of the waves with your breath.
Inhale… Exhale.
Feel the buoyant lift as the wave crests above your chest Supporting you.
Allowing you to let go a little more as the water pulls softly away.
Inhale as the water moves up your body.
Exhale.
As it gently recedes.
Taking with it.
What you need to leave behind.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Inhale,
Expand.
Exhale.
Release.
Inhale,
Open.
Exhale.
Let go.
Inhale,
Fill up.
Sigh on your exhale,
Syncing the sound of the breath with the rush of the waves.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Release your arms back to your sides.
The waves begin to slow.
As you return to your natural cadence of breath.
Wiggle your fingers a moment.
Wiggle your toes.
Make little circles with your wrists.
And your ankle.
Take your arms over your head in a beautiful full body stretch.
Getting long from end to end.
Lower your arms back down.
Allow your eyes to slowly flutter open.
Returning to your familiar surroundings.
And carrying with you.
The peace.
And renewal of the waves.
Namaste.
