You you Hello and welcome to this mindfulness track about grounding and by grounding I mean getting in touch with your physicality with the present moment and and being conscious and aware of where you are now I'd like you to take a moment to come to the present moment To let go of ideas you may have of yesterday of tomorrow of even today There is only now this moment this present Notice your body Notice the sensations you are feeling Perhaps you can notice your heartbeat or the movement of air on your skin Or the rise and fall of your chest You are present right here right now Focus your attention on your breath Inhale Notice the air in your nostrils notice your lungs filling And exhale Follow the breath as it leaves your body With each in breath you invite stillness into your body And with each out breath you release tension and you soften your body I'd invite you now To gently allow your eyes to close if they're not already and to take three slow breaths We begin with a long deep inhale through the nose You hold it for a moment And then release with a long slow letting go And again And again Pay attention of what it feels like to be aware of your breath Be aware of your body Be aware of your being in this present moment Maybe you've encountered some resistance Maybe your mind has wondered This is fine Come back to noticing your breath You have nothing you have to do Simply observe Right here right now there is nothing you need to do Nowhere you need to be Take another deep breath in and say silently to yourself.
I am here now And as you breathe out,
This is me Repeat this a few times breathing in I am here now Breathing out this is me I am here now This is me Repeat this for as long as you need to And then when you're ready bring your awareness back to your body back to physical sensations of touch Returning to the room where you're sitting Returning to the sound you can hear and gently open your eyes You
