Nice and slow, Controlled, Simple, With attention to pain. The sensations in your body. So take a seat or lie down, My friends. It's just gonna take a few moments of your time. And in return, You'll get a nice little energy reset to go on with the rest of your day. So wherever you are, Nice and cozy, Of course. Unclench the jaw. Drop the tongue at the bottom of the mouth. Soften your cheeks. And the space between your eyebrows. Drop them shoulders down even more. And just notice how you feel for just a moment. Breathing normally, Maybe wiggling your fingers, Wiggling your toes. Maybe circling your wrist or circling your ankle or maybe even circling your neck a little bit. Nice and chill. And release. We're going to go in through the nose, Nice and slow and gentle. Fill up that belly and chest as much as comfortable, Then exhale it out. Open the mouth, Exhale it out.
