Hello, My dear friend. Welcome to this meditation. Relax. Close your eyes, Soften your jaw. Let your tongue rest behind your lower teeth. And let your shoulders drop. Take a deep, Slow breath in through your nose. Letting the air reach. . . The bottom of your ribs and let out a long audible sigh through your mouth. Ugh. Gently place the palm of your right hand directly over the center of your chest. Let your hand rest there with a comforting, Heavy warm. Notice if the muscle underneath your hand feel tight, Sunken or guarded, Protected. You do not need to change it. Just notice. Imagine that your hand is sending a message of complete safety directly into your chest. There is no rush. There is no demand for the heart to open. Before it is ready. You are simply keeping it company. Silently repeat these words in your mind. Allowing the resonance to echo under your hands. I acknowledge the armor I built to survive. Thank you for keeping me safe. I am safe enough. Now to begin softening myself again. Take a very slow, Deep breath into the space beneath your hand. And feel your chest expand and push gently against your palm. Creating a new space. And exhale completely, Letting your shoulders melt even further. When you feel safe.
