Welcome,

Let's take a few light-hearted minutes together.

Notice your breath,

Your body,

And the support beneath you.

Allow a little smile to find its way to your lips.

Play is not only for children,

It's a way to reconnect with joy.

Soften your jaw,

Loosen your shoulders,

And feel the breath lighten.

Imagine a spark of playfulness in your chest,

Growing brighter with each breath.

And give yourself permission to take life a little less seriously in this moment.

Joy and curiosity belong here too.

Let's breathe three playful breaths together.

Inhale curiosity,

And exhale tension.

Inhale lightness,

And exhale burden.

Inhale joy,

And exhale release.

This moment is enough,

And so are you.

Carry this playful spark with you into whatever comes next.
