So as you're listening,
Letting your breath deepen.
Letting your eyes close if they're open.
Bringing one hand to your belly.
And one hand to your heart.
And just noticing where you feel your breath.
Noticing the rise of your belly.
Noticing the fall of your belly.
Letting your breath deepen and slow by breathing through your nose.
And out of your mouth.
Deep breath in through the nose.
Slow breath out through the mouth.
Letting your body rest.
Letting your mind reset.
Nothing to do.
Nowhere to go.
Just experiencing sound.
Experiencing stillness.
Experiencing what's always here.
The breath.
We'll begin to breathe rhythmically as a way of unifying our heads and our hearts both individually and collectively.
So if there's a hand resting on your belly,
You can begin to pay more attention to it.
And if your hand isn't on your belly,
You can bring it there now.
And I'll count in and out for six.
And all you have to do is just focus on the breath.
Noticing the rise.
Noticing the fall.
So we'll take a clearing breath together,
Breathing out.
Breathing in two,
Three,
Four,
Five,
Six.
Out two,
Three,
Four,
Five,

In two,

Out two,

In two,

Out two,
Three,
Four,
Five,
Six.
Breathing further into presence.
Experiencing what's here as you let go of doing.
And just stay with yourself as a human being.
Receiving the sounds.
Receiving the breath.
Receiving any images or colors that come to you.
Any messages even.
Just being with what's real.
And just be with what's real.
And just be with what's real.
And just be with what's real.
And bringing one hand up to your heart center.
And accessing,
Just for a moment,
This place inside of you beyond worry.
Beyond the judgmental mind.
Beyond your inner critic.
Beyond the storms of strong emotions.
And this place deep down where your basic goodness exists.
And feeling yourself with such tenderness and compassion in this moment.
And feeling into your goodness and calling for the sense of gratitude.
Gratitude for yourself for showing up in this moment.
For giving yourself this gift,
This opportunity.
Or maybe gratitude for someone else in your life.
Gratitude for your life situation.
Gratitude for nature.
Your pets.
Feeling yourself fill up with gratitude as you breathe in.
And letting that gratitude wash over you and pour out into the world as you breathe out.
We'll do this together.
Synchronizing our heads and our hearts individually and as a whole.
So we'll take a calming,
Soothing breath in through the nose and slowly out through the mouth.
And then we'll start breathing rhythmically and breathing in and feeling yourself.
Fill up with goodness and gratitude.
Breathe out.
Let it wash over you.
Pouring out into the world.
Out together,
Letting go.
Breathing in.

Through each and every cell in your body.

I am grateful,

You are grateful,
You are blessed.
Everything you need comes to you with effortless ease.
Everything I need.
Everything I need.
Everything I need.
This is the time to receive.
Receive the messages that your intuition,
That the spirit of guidance has to give you.
Listening.
Letting yourself open to what your body needs.
To what your heart needs.
Visualizing the version of yourself that feels most whole,
Complete,
Perfect.
And just sitting in that visualization.
Experiencing this part of yourself.
You create your reality.
You cannot make it be a benevolent one.
One full of kindness.
One full of joy.
One full of blessings.
One full of abundance.
One full of love and authenticity.
Connection.
Truth.
Presence.
Receiving the goodness that you already are.
That's been lying dormant.
Waiting for you to get quiet enough to hear its whisper.
Reminders of the truth.
Who you really are inside.
Your basic essence.
You are here to love and be loved.
To give love.
To receive love.
To embody love.
Love is your nature.
Resting.
Resetting.
Receiving.
Relaxing.
Feeling bliss.
Feeling joy.
Feeling happiness.
Feeling calm.
Feeling ease.
Feeling peace.
Feeling joy.
Realizing that all of these feelings in this moment can be cultivated,
Can be remembered,
And can be returned to over and over again throughout your day.
Anytime you need them.
What a gift that we can experience.
The truth.
The essence.
Of the goodness that we are.
Now we'll begin to bring this goodness,
This love,
This gratitude back into the real world.
By just sensing into our bodies and feeling the weight.
The pressure,
The contact.
The cushion,
The floor,
The bed,
The chair.
And then very slowly wiggling the toes.
Wiggling the fingers.
When you're ready.
You can blink your eyes open.
Or if you feel like falling asleep,
You can just drift sweetly to sleep.
