You you you Taking a deep breath coming back to the body Relaxing the shoulders relaxing the breathing so that the breath is deeper you're breathing in through the abdomen What you're doing is just gently tuning into how your body feels Most of us are not really aware of how the body feels especially when caught in thoughts that are stressful or feelings that may take us outside of the somatic awareness that is body connection Just taking a few moments to come back to an awareness of how your body feels And to consciously with intention just allow the body to rest and to relax as we go deeper into meditation It's important that you repeat this as a Thought but also it's important that you sense this as an experience So when you are connected to your body,
You can relax the shoulders you can relax All parts of your body that may be tense Very often when we are tense We just don't know the nervous system just is in a reactive state So we just don't know we we don't know how to relax because our minds are not there As you breathe in and breathe out and come back to an awareness of the body And you can take those steps Relaxing the tension letting go of those stressful thoughts deep breath As you breathe in and breathe out not only tuning into the body but also Tuning into how your breath works within this wonderful space that is the physical body the temple Being focused and connected to the way that your breath guides you into the body As you breathe in following the breath breathing into the abdomen As you breathe out relaxing following the breath relaxing Connecting to deep breathing It's important that you are aware of the breath but also that you're focused and connected to the way that the breath is guiding you into the body Deep full breath it's important that you focus on the breath Allow for deep breathing to happen.
If the mind gets lazy and you just fall into sort of a sort of daydream state where you forget about your breath or where the breath is just happening without your focus,
Then come back to the breath and make sure that you're breathing deeply into the abdomen.
As you breathe out,
That you're letting go.
Aware,
Mindful,
Deep breathing.
As you breathe in and breathe out,
Be very intentional in the way that you connect to the breath.
You're relaxing,
But you're still very aware,
Connected and focused on the breath.
You're connected to the breath.
The way the breath guides you is a very powerful way to help your mind and your energy and your emotions to come back to a state of equilibrium.
Mindful breathing is very important.
Follow the breath.
Be guided by the breath.
Deep breath.
As you become aware and mindful of the breath,
Make sure that the way that you exhale is very relaxing,
Very helpful,
Very connected to just letting go.
So the way that you exhale is very different than what most of us practice when we are breathing.
It's important to exhale so that the out breath is longer than the in breath.
So you're breathing out,
Breathing out,
Breathing out,
Prolonging the out breath,
Extending the out breath.
This means that you're really letting go of energies inside of you as you breathe out and not just normal out breath,
But a full complete out breath.
You're letting go of those deep issues that may be there creating stress.
Maybe they're creating tension.
Deep breath.
As you breathe out and relax and let go,
You're creating a space within you.
You let go of the old,
You're creating an invitation for the new to come into this space and to guide you,
To nurture you,
To just help you to elevate to a state of consciousness where there is connection.
There is a sense of oneness.
Deep breath.
Breathing out,
Extending the out breath,
Letting go,
Letting go,
Letting go and relaxing into this state of connection,
Into this state of oneness as you let go of the old,
You invite the present moment into your experience.
You invite the flow into all aspects of your being,
Your physical body,
Your mind,
Your emotional body,
Your energy.
Connect and align with this wonderful sense of flow.
Deep breath.
Extending the out breath,
Relaxing,
Letting go.
If the thoughts in the background are still anxious or if there's a busyness outside of this wonderful flow,
This present moment,
You get drawn into those thoughts or into those feelings.
And just remind yourself every time you breathe out,
Every time you extend the out breath,
You're letting go,
Coming back to an alignment where there is oneness,
Oneness in the way that your body,
Your mind,
Your emotional body perceives the environment and the space around you.
You can focus on this intention so that this intention becomes an activity,
An action that you apply and connect to in daily life experiences.
So beyond meditation,
You're extending this mindful awareness into your daily activities.
The intention is just to come back to the breath and breathe out,
Extend the out breath every time there is stress or tension.
Relax,
Breathe,
Breathe out,
Let go.
So rather than react to anxious thoughts or react to feelings or situations,
You are coming back to this sense of healing,
Elevation that happens within healing.
You're slowing everything down.
You're releasing the tension.
You're releasing whatever else is holding you in that space where reactivity is so very easy.
You're relaxing,
Letting go and grounding yourself in the flow of this present moment through the out breath.
Full,
Deep out breath.
Just make sure this intention is part of your focus today.
Just closing your eyes,
Taking a moment to connect to your heart,
Just sensing this wonderful intention as being part of the way that you connect to the world,
The way that you communicate to the world.
Deep breath.
You may wish to continue in stillness for a few more moments,
Integrating the intention so that the intention is there,
Present,
Without even you needing to think about the intention or remember the intention.
It's just part of the way that you respond to whatever the world throws at you today.
Thank you.
