Transcript

If you can and if it's comfortable to you,

Close your eyes.

Begin to feel into the low belly as you breathe.

I am safe.

Repeating this to yourself.

I am safe.

Breathing down the breath,

For breath waves match brain waves.

The slower the breath,

The calmer the mind.

Deepening the exhale,

Draw it out longer than your inhale.

I am safe.

Breathe in through the nose and exhale out with an open mouth.

Two more.

Deep inhale through the nose.

Exhale,

Sigh it out.

Slowing it down for one final round.

Inhaling through the nostrils,

Even and slow.

Filling the belly and upper chest wide like a balloon.

In exhaling,

Releasing tension,

Open the jaw,

Sigh it out.

Letting the worries release from the body through the tool of the exhale.

And breathing in,

Allowing space to fill the body.

And breathing out,

Ebbing and flowing,

Becoming a balanced source of oneness with the space around you.

I am safe.

Feeling the support beneath your body.

Staying mindful of your connection to the space around you and the grounding energy beneath you.

Now gently opening the eyes and taking note of five things around you.

Five things in your space,

In your physical world.

Right here,

Right now.

I am safe.

With the sky above and earth below,

I wish you peace within.

Namaste,

My dear friend.
