Take a moment to settle in,
Make yourself nice and comfortable,
Keeping a tall spine,
Allow your body to relax and closing down your eyes or your gaze if that feels good for you today.
Soften the muscles in your face,
Relax your brow,
Your forehead,
Unclench your jaw and let your shoulders relax away from your ears and melt down your back.
Let's take one deep inhale,
Filling the lungs,
Open the mouth and exhale.
One more time inhale and sigh it out,
Bringing your attention to your breath,
Inhaling and exhaling naturally through your nose.
Notice the coolness of the breath on the inhale and the warmth of the breath on the exhale.
Slowly begin to lengthen your breath,
Letting each inhale and exhale become a little deeper,
A little slower.
We're now going to begin box breathing.
Together let's exhale all the air from our lungs and inhale for 2,

As we transition back to the day,
Remember to check in with your breath from time to time,
Knowing you can return to this practice anytime you need a mental break,
A reset,
Or even when you're just feeling overwhelmed.
I hope you found a little bit of peace to take with you into your day.
Thank you for practicing with me.
