Let's do this quick exercise on how taking breaths can regain focus.

After this task is complete,

You will noticeably be more relaxed and will get a good understanding of where your focus needs to be.

Get into a comfortable position.

Please close your eyes as if you are going to sleep,

But do not go to sleep.

Stay awake and listen to my voice.

Make sure you are comfortable now so that you do not need to move your body to remain still and calm.

Taking deep breaths allows us to feel calm and focus on the present moment so we begin to notice your breath.

We are going to take 10 full and deep breaths,

Allowing for each breath to relax you.

1.

Breathing deeply,

Allowing your belly to expand and exhale,

Letting the air escape.

2.

Take in a full breath of fresh air and let it go,

Allowing yourself to feel very relaxed.

3.

Make your breaths meaningful and exhale,

Just letting the air go.

4.

Focusing only on your breath and let it go.

Nothing else matters except breathing.

5.

Fully focus on this breath in and when you let it go,

You feel extremely relaxed.

6.

All your focus is on your breath,

Letting your worries go when you exhale.

7.

Breathe with passion and exhale,

Letting that wave of relaxation come over you.

8.

The only thing that matters is your breath.

Focus on it,

Let it come in and go out.

9.

Expand your belly as much as you can as you breathe in and exhale,

Letting your belly fall.

10.

This is the last one,

So make it really good and completely full.

When you let it go,

You will feel invigorated from this task.

Now you can return to the present moment and be aware of your surroundings,

Taking all the time you need.

Take care my friend.
