Introduction To Breathwork

This is an introduction to Breathwork Meditation. This style of breathwork is best enjoyed by breathing through the mouth. Feel free to breathe at whatever pace feels comfortable to you. The meditation begins with deep breathe-ins, followed by an introduction to a two-part breathing pattern. Take in two inhales filling up the belly then the chest followed by a big exhale. Sometimes you might feel a bit of tingliness in the hands or feet or tightness in the face, relax embrace whatever comes up.

Transcript

Hello,

I'm Shana Bryant and this is your introduction to breath work.

Begin lying down in a comfortable position.

Head flat,

Arms by your sides,

Ankles uncrossed.

Allow the weight of your body to rest on the floor.

Imagine your ankles stretching away from your hips,

Your neck getting further from your spine.

The entire length of your body resting comfortably on the floor.

With eyes closed,

Begin just a simple breath through your mouth.

And then exhale all of the air out.

Allow the air to fill your lungs,

Fill your heart.

Allow the breath to fill your stomach,

Sweep into your hips.

Take one more breath in,

Exhale all of the air out and then begin your two-part breath.

In through the stomach,

In through the heart and out through the mouth.

Exhale all of the air out and then exhale all of the air out.

Stomach,

In through the heart and out through the mouth.

Imagine that you're pulling in light and love.

With the exhales,

You release tension and stress.

Gain strength in your breathing,

Adding air to the areas that need it most.

If it's your belly for strength,

If it's your chest for love,

Fill that deeper.

And with the exhale,

Send away the feelings of,

The feelings of weightiness,

The feelings of doubt.

Exhale all of the air out through the mouth.

With one minute left of breathing,

Allow yourself to go deeper.

Fortify your breath.

Exhale all of the air out through the mouth.

Slowly allow yourself to return to a single breath in through the mouth and a single breath out.

Sink deeper into your resting position.

And then relax into a comfortable breath,

Whatever that is for you.

Mmm,

Mmm,

Mmm.

Slowly come back into your body.

Roll your ankles,

Flex your wrists.

Roll your shoulders back into the floor.

Move your jaw.

You've completed seven minutes of breath work.
