Welcome,
Welcome wild one to this nature-inspired body scan.
Here we will take some time to ground ourselves and then share a gentle body scan practice.
We will be supported and serenaded by the songs of nature beings.
So firstly inviting you to take some time and find yourself a position that feels comfortable and supportive for your body today.
When you have found that position we will begin by taking a few transitional breaths.
So deep breaths at a pace that suits you and these breaths support us in letting us move on from wherever we are in our day into a place of stillness and slowness.
So taking some time here to land and connect with your breath,
Your body and your inner ecosystem.
For this body scan as a name points on the body the invitation is to send gentle awareness and mindful breath to those spaces.
You may wish to visualize something illuminating those spaces like sunlight or gentle warmth,
But whatever feels right for you today,
Just sending your awareness to those places.
