I invite you to start by simply just taking a breath in and a gentle breath out.
Taking a moment to settle wherever you are.
You don't need to change anything about yourself right now.
You are allowed to arrive just as you are.
If it feels okay,
Gently close the eyes.
If not,
You can lower your gaze or let them rest softly on something around you.
Remember,
There is no wrong way to be here.
Start to take a slow easy breath in through the nose and let it go through the mouth.
Letting the breath move at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
Whatever the speed,
Whatever the pace,
No need to judge,
Just observe.
Begin by noticing where your body meets support.
Whether it's the chair beneath you,
The ground beneath your feet,
The quiet steadiness that holds you no matter what's happening around you.
You might press your feet gently into the floor,
Feeling the connection.
Let the shoulders soften away from the ears.
Let your hands rest softly by your side.
You don't need to hold the weight of the world.
Now start to bring awareness to your breath again.
Notice the texture,
Cool as it enters,
Warm as it leaves.
If it feels comfortable,
You can place a hand on your heart or on your belly.
Feeling the rise and the fall.
Remember there is no obligation,
There is only choice.
A reminder that life is moving through you gently,
Softly.
If any emotion arises,
Whether it's tension,
Sadness,
Restlessness,
There's no need to push it away.
Simply notice it.
Start to take a deeper inhale in and a nice long exhale out.
Let the breath fill the spaces that once held tightness,
That once held rigidity.
Allow those spaces to become expansive.
Allow those spaces to become a little bit more free.
And if it's not happening today,
That's okay.
Meditation is just a way to bring awareness into the body,
Into the breath,
And into the mind.
Without judgment,
Without attachment,
Just observation.
Take a deep inhale in through the nose.
And a nice long exhale out.
Another deep inhale in.
And exhale fully.
Start to bring awareness into the body.
Whether it's bringing movement into the fingertips or the toes.
Or maybe swaying your body side to side.
Moving your neck right and left.
You can start to open the eyes if they were once closed.
Noticing the space around you,
The colors,
The lights,
The sounds.
And we'll finish with one round of breath.
So taking a deep inhale in and exhale side out.
We have come to the end of this meditation.
If you feel inclined to,
Please leave a rating and a review.
And I wish you a great day or night ahead.
