Breath At Center Of Abdomen

We'll start with three deep breaths.

So imagine the energy of the air coming into your nostrils,

Going down all the way to the center of the abdomen coming back out again.

Now we'll take those three long,

Deep breaths.

You can imagine your attention being drawn inside the body,

Starting at the crown of the head.

And as it flows down into the muscles of the face,

We invite the muscles of the face to relax,

Especially around the eyes and in the jaw.

Let the attention flow down through the neck and shoulders,

Inviting the neck and shoulders to relax.

Inviting the attention to the chest and upper back and invite the muscles there to relax.

Now the attention flows down into the lower back and the abdomen.

And we invite the muscles there to relax.

And just take some nice deep breaths,

Inviting the attention down into the center of the abdomen.

If you like you can try to make the in breath as long as possible,

Really expand the belly out as much as possible.

On the out breath,

You can try to make that long as well.

And at the end of the out breath,

Squeeze all the breath out of the center of the abdomen.

Let's take a few nice long deep breaths like that,

Focusing the attention in the center of the abdomen.

And we'll close this short meditation with a wish.

May I stay grounded going through my day.

May I stay grounded going through my day.
