An invitation to pause and let your breath carry you back to the quiet joy of simply being. Let these warm melodies and tender words be a gentle companion, reminding you that it’s okay to rest, to feel the lightness in your own heart. Let it be a sweet breath of calm, a quiet moment of lightness and ease.

Transcript

Take a slow breath in,

And let it go Let your shoulders drop,

Let your body soften And feel the gentle quiet of your own breath It's okay to rest,

To let go of the weight you've been holding To pause for a moment,

Just to feel your own heart beating In and out,

You don't have to keep going right now You don't have to hold it all together Let these words be a soft permission A quiet breath of release You've carried so much more than anyone can see It's okay to set some of it down now To feel the gentle strength of your own stillness This isn't about giving up This isn't about losing who you are It's about remembering that even the strongest branches Need the quiet of the dawn,

The hush of the earth Let your breath be a gentle wave A rhythm that asks nothing of you,

But to simply be here It's okay to rest,

To let the quiet of your bones A soft touch to the parts of you that ache You don't have to fix or force Let this breath be a small kindness Let it go,

Let these words settle in your chest A gentle echo
