Pause & Breathe | 2-Minute Meditation

Take two minutes to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself.

This short guided breath meditation offers a simple way to create a moment of calm whenever you need it. Through gentle, mindful breathing and focused awareness, you’ll be guided to slow down, settle your mind, and return to the present moment.

Whether you’re feeling stressed, overwhelmed, distracted, or simply need a little space to breathe, this practice can be used anytime you need a quick moment to yourself.

This meditation was inspired by my training in Divine Sleep Yoga Nidra with Jennifer Reis.

Hello and welcome. Make yourself comfortable. Lying down or seated. Close your eyes if that's comfortable. Become aware of your breath. Notice your body resting. Begin to feel your breath, Your natural breath. Aware of breath in your chest. The easy rise and fall of breath in your chest. Settle into your body. Feel the Earth underneath you, Holding and supporting you. Feel your breath flowing easily through your body. No need to change your breath. Notice your breath and follow it. Continue noticing your breath. And now begin to gently deepen your breaths. Lengthen your spine, Or feel free to gently stretch. Take another full breath in, And as you exhale, Simply notice how you feel. Ever so slowly, Allow your eyes to open.
