And as you're arriving in this fresh moment and fresh posture,
Melt and sink into that support beneath you on each exhale.
You might even check in and see if it's possible to get even 5% more comfortable.
If you haven't already,
You might just tune in to the places where your body meets the floor,
The bed,
The chair,
Wherever you're resting.
Just feeling the earth's support come up through the structures of the building if you're inside or just feeling that direct contact with the earth if you're outside.
Throughout this practice,
Just continuing to melt into that support whenever that's available to you.
And then you might notice where in your body you feel your breath the most or the most easily.
We'll just follow the next few breaths together in and out,
Feeling the body move with each breath.
And then we'll bring into our awareness the lower half of the body.
So sensing the feet,
The ankles,
The legs and hips.
Studying the lower half of the body with our presence and our kind awareness.
Yeah,
Coming home to the lower half of the body here in whatever way that makes sense for you today.
And then coming up into the upper half of the body with your presence,
Gentle,
Kind of feeling the presence whenever possible,
Embodying the belly and lower back,
Ribs and heart,
Arms,
Neck and all the way up to the head,
The crown of the head.
Yep.
Yeah,
Coming home to this upper half of the body.
And then the entire right side of the body,
All the way from the crown of the head to the bottom of the right foot.
Filling the body with presence.
Not judging what's there,
Just welcoming what you notice,
Whether it's numbness or pleasure or anywhere in between.
There you go.
And then moving across the left side of the body from the crown of the head to the bottom of the left foot,
Embodying the whole left side of the body.
You have to remember there's no right or wrong way to be embodied.
So awareness is enough.
And then sensing the whole inside of the body.
Resting our presence with the entire inside of the body.
Front,
Back,
Left,
Right,
Top,
Bottom.
Right,

Right,
Left,
Right,
Top,
Bottom.
Connected here with the whole body experience while sensing the outside of the body now.
Maybe that's the edges of our skin,
Might be the air on the outside of the body,
The room around us,
The space around us.
Sensing the outside now.
Right,
Left,
Right,
Top,
Bottom.
Right,
Left,
Right,
Top,
Bottom.
Right,

Right,
Top,
Bottom.
We'll just rest in awareness together here for a minute.
Nothing to do.
No one to be,
Nowhere to go.
We'll just rest in awareness.
We'll just rest in awareness.
We'll just rest in awareness.
Staying connected to anything here that feels supportive,
Nourishing,
Settling,
Pleasant.
Stabilizing that feeling as you bring your awareness even more fully into your space,
Into the room.
Maybe looking around,
Noticing anything that feels different or better as we bring the practice today to an end.
