Thanks for tuning in to this 10 minute breathwork practice aimed at moving stuck energy,
Bringing you into your body and creating clarity within your entire being.
This is best performed first thing in the morning but can also be used any time of the day as a reset for your nervous system.
The breath we will be using in this practice will be in through the nose and out through the mouth.
I would encourage you to really use your diaphragm,
Where on the inhale you draw the diaphragm down towards your belly button,
Feeling your stomach and then your chest expand.
And then on the exhale,
Letting go out of the mouth without forcing and feeling the belly button deflate towards the spine.
It will sound like this.
We will be completing 3 rounds of 30 breaths,
Followed by a breath hold at both the top and bottom of the breath to close off each round.
Through this type of breathing your blood chemistry will change and your nervous system may feel slightly activated.
Know that any tingling,
Hot or cold flushes and resistance is very normal.
My invitation to you would be to breathe through the sensations and trust the process.
I will be guiding you through the entire 10 minutes,
So simply listen along to my voice and let the breath work its magic.
As a precautionary note,
If you are pregnant or have any other contraindications such as heart disease or other breathing issues,
I would suggest either changing the breath to something more gentle such as in and out through the nose or omitting this practice completely.
Finding a nice comfortable place to sit or lie down now.
If you choose to lie down,
I would suggest lying completely flat with no pillow behind your head and just spending the next few moments getting nice and comfortable.
And then when you are ready,
Closing down your eyes.
Bringing your awareness to your breath now.
Noticing where you feel it within your body.
Noticing the temperature of the air entering and exiting your nostrils.
Noticing any places where the breath might feel stuck.
Taking three cleansing breaths now.
In through the nose.
And out through the mouth.
And again,
In through the nose.
And releasing out through the mouth.
Final time,
In through the nose.
And out,
Releasing.
Preparing yourself to begin the first round of breath together.
Beginning in three,
Two,
One.
That's it,
Keep that breath moving.
And through the nose.
Now through the mouth,
Releasing without force.
Letting the breath move you.
Letting it move through your body.
Releasing stuck energy.
That's it,
Keep that breath moving.
Keep going,
Nearly there.
Couple more breaths.
Final inhale here.
And holding the breath at the top.
Feeling the expansion in your lungs.
Your entire chest cavity.
Feeling the fullness of this energy that tingles in the body.
And then releasing that breath.
Holding the breath at the bottom.
Being in the stillness.
This peaceful place.
Taking a breath in.
And releasing.
And that's the first round done.
Getting ready to begin the next round of breath.
Three,
Two,
One.
Clearing the stagnation in your body.
Clearing the stuck energy here.
Moving the breath.
Releasing on the exhales.
Feeling yourself travel deeper and deeper into your internal world.
That's it,
Keep that breath moving.
You're doing great.
Just leaning into that wall of resistance.
Letting the breath clear your system.
Letting the breath provide a reset.
Couple more breaths.
Taking a final inhale here.
And holding the breath at the top.
Holding the fullness.
Letting the mind go quiet.
And then releasing that breath.
Letting go.
Letting your belly button draw in towards the spine.
And holding the breath at the bottom.
In stillness.
In peace.
Taking a breath in.
And releasing.
That's round two complete.
Final round here.
Three,
Two,
One.
Releasing stuck energy.
Making this round your fullest breath yet.
Letting that chest,
Belly,
Collarbones expand.
And then letting your entire chest deflate on the exhale.
Moving the energy.
Calming into your body.
Creating clarity.
Releasing stuck energy.
That's it,
You're doing great.
Nearly there.
Just a few more breaths.
Final inhale here.
Holding the breath at the top.
Staying with it.
And exhale.
Releasing the breath and holding at the bottom.
Final time here.
Letting that energy circulate.
Pulse,
Feel your heartbeat.
Feel your physiology shifting and changing.
Feel your mental state shifting and changing.
Just a few more seconds.
Taking a deep breath in now.
Coming back to your natural breath.
And just noticing.
Noticing what's present within your physical being now.
Noticing the tranquility,
The equanimity,
The peacefulness and calm that you feel within your entire being.
This is your natural state.
It's right here for you under all the noise,
Under all the mental chatter.
And you can return to this state whenever you feel called,
Whenever it feels necessary.
I invite you now to bring your awareness back to your body.
Perhaps noticing what you can feel underneath your hands.
Or where your body is pressing into the earth beneath you.
Inviting in a little bit of movement.
Perhaps through the fingers or toes.
And then perhaps gently opening the eyes.
Bringing yourself back into your surroundings.
And just noticing how you feel.
Declaring how you'd like to show up.
How you intend to spend the rest of your day.
With what type of energy.
And what type of presence.
Thanks for tuning in.
I hope this practice has been beneficial.
And I'm sending you lots of love.
