Hi,
I'm Tracy Sagrati.
Welcome to your morning breathing practice.
As you listen,
The beat of a drum will come in.
Begin by finding a comfortable seated position.
Let your spine be very long.
Tuck your chin just a little bit.
If you're comfortable closing the eyes,
Close the eyes.
You can rest the hands in the lap.
Breathe into your body.
Breathe out.
Inhale into your body.
Exhale.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Breathe in.
Now we'll double the exhale.
Breathe out.
Keep breathing out.
Breathe into your body.
Breathe out.
Keep breathing out.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Keep exhaling.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Keep exhaling.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Keep exhaling.
Doubling the inhale now.
Breathe in.
Keep breathing in.
Breathe out.
Keep breathing out.
Breathe in.
Keep breathing in.
Breathe out now.
Keep breathing out.
Inhale.
Keep inhaling.
Exhale.
Keep exhaling.
Breathe in.
Keep breathing in.
Breathe out.
Keep breathing out.
Inhale.
A lot of pause after the inhale.
Keep inhaling.
Hold the breath.
Exhale.
Keep exhaling.
Hold the breath.
Inhale.
Keep inhaling.
Hold the breath.
Exhale.
Keep exhaling.
Hold the breath.
Inhale.
Keep inhaling.
Hold the breath.
Exhale.
Keep exhaling.
Hold the breath.
Inhale.
Keep inhaling.
Hold the breath.
Exhale.
Keep exhaling.
Hold the breath.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
As you feel the drumbeat fall away,
Place one hand on the chest and the other on top.
From this place of stillness,
Create your intention for your day,
Your sankalpa.
When you have it,
Repeat it in the mind three times using exactly the same words.
Your morning practice is now complete.
