Welcome daydreamers,
My name is Alexandra and I will be your guiding voice through today's pause and reset.
Take a moment to arrive here.
There is nowhere else you need to be.
Nothing you need to figure out.
Nothing you need to hold on to.
For these next few minutes you can simply rest,
So if it feels comfortable allow your eyes to gently close and take a slow deep breath in.
And a long,
Soft breath out.
Again,
Breathing in slowly.
And exhaling completely.
One more time,
A deep breath in and let it all go.
Now allow your body to become still.
Let your hands rest softly.
Let your shoulders drop away from your ears.
Soften your jaw,
Your forehead,
The little space between your eyebrows.
You don't need to make your body perfectly still.
Just allow it to settle.
As though you've been floating through your day.
And for a moment.
You found a quiet little cloud to rest upon.
You don't need to carry yourself right now.
Let yourself be held.
Notice the feeling of your body being supported by your surface of choice in this moment.
And now,
Bring your attention gently to your breath.
Notice the air moving in.
And moving out.
No need to change it.
Simply notice.
Imagine that with every breath a soft warm light of energy is moving through you.
As you breathe in,
Feel it gently flowing into your body,
Through your chest,
Your shoulders,
Your arms,
Moving all the way down to your fingertips.
And as you breathe out,
Let that light of energy continue its journey.
Through your belly,
Your hips,
Your legs.
All the way down to your feet.
Nothing to force,
Nothing to chase,
Just a gentle flow,
In and out.
If your mind wanders.
That's okay.
Daydreamers are allowed to wonder.
Let your thoughts drift by like little clouds in the sky.
You don't have to follow them.
You can simply notice them and return to your breath.
But just a little longer.
Let yourself be nowhere but here.
Breathing.
Resting.
Being.
And perhaps with your next breath in,
Imagine gathering a little softness,
A little space.
A little lightness.
And as you breathe out,
Release anything you don't need to carry into the next moment.
Take one more slow beautiful breath in and a long breath out.
Feel the stillness you've created and remember you don't always need a whole day away to find a moment of rest.
Sometimes a few quiet breaths are enough to return to yourself.
When you're ready,
Begin to gently bring movement back into your body.
Perhaps wiggle your fingers,
Your toes,
Roll your shoulders softly and when it feels right let your eyes slowly open.
Take this little pocket of calm with you.
And whenever you need it,
You can always come back here to this breath,
This body,
This little daydream.
Thank you for resting with me daydreamer.
Until our next little pause,
Keep breathing,
Keep wandering.
And keep dreaming.
