Take a moment to find a comfortable seat,
Shift and move your body,
Lengthen your spine,
Soften your shoulders and settle into stillness.
Allow your eyes to close gently so that you are better able to focus on my voice.
Feel how your body begins to relax.
Tune in now to your own breath.
Allow your breath to slow down and deepen.
Breathing naturally,
Comfortably.
Settle into your own pace for your breath.
As you inhale,
Feel your lungs expand.
As you exhale,
Feel all the pressure within you release.
Breathe in,
Expand.
Breathe out,
Release.
Feel as all the tension flows out and away from your body.
Breathe in and breathe out.
Letting your whole body soften and relax.
Sinking deeper into a feeling of calm and comfort as all the tension melts away.
Bring your attention to your eyelids.
Allow the muscles around the eyes to soften.
Feel as that softening sensation spreads across your forehead.
The muscles of your face release completely.
Your cheekbones soften.
Your jaw releases.
Your whole face is smooth and relaxed.
Breathe in,
Expand.
Breathe out,
Release.
Enjoy the sensation of softness as all the tension is melting away.
Allow this softening sensation to travel downwards,
Spreading across your throat and your neck.
Feel as any tightness,
Any tension melts away.
The relaxation spreads to your shoulders,
Smoothing away tightness.
Allow the shoulders to melt to their natural height.
Everything feels soft,
Relaxed and calm.
Breathe in,
Expand.
Breathe out,
Release.
Feel your body letting go of tightness and welcoming in softness.
This calm,
Peaceful feeling continues downwards through your chest,
Your abdomen.
Feel as the tension dissipates.
Your bones sink heavy.
Your muscles release.
The tension melts out and away from your body.
Breathe in,
Expand.
Breathe out,
Release.
Notice your hips.
Allow them to soften.
Your legs feel heavy and relaxed.
Even your ankles let go of any effort.
Your whole body is sinking into deep relaxation.
Breathe in,
Expand.
Breathe out,
Release.
Feel how calm,
How soft your body is.
Total relaxation.
Savor this sensation.
Breathe in,
Expand.
Breathe out,
Release.
Everything is soft.
Your whole body is heavy and relaxed.
Breathe in,
Expand.
Breathe out,
Release.
Welcome to the present.
Feel the sensation of your breath in your body.
Slowly wiggle your fingers and your toes.
Feel as sensation returns to your body.
In your own time,
When you are ready,
Softly open your eyes.
