Welcome to this moment,
My friend.
Right away,
Close your eyes if that feels right and place a hand or two over your beating arm.
Breathe in deeply,
Exhale,
Let it go.
Start to drop into your heart,
Feel your energy drop into your body,
Settling into this safety of stillness.
Breathe in slowly,
Hold,
Exhale,
Hold,
Exhale,
Hold.
Continue to find your rhythm here,
Breathing in,
Holding,
Breathing out,
Holding.
Feel how your breath anchors you deeper and deeper into this moment,
Where you can realize everything is okay,
Feel all that is worrying you just fade away as you focus on your breath.
Don't leave this moment,
Be here.
Stay with your breath,
When it feels right,
Allow the breath to go,
Take one cleansing breath,
Inhale deeply,
Exhale,
Let it go.
Bring awareness to your feet,
Feel the connection between your feet and the earth beneath you,
Feel how you are held by the earth,
It is unwavering,
Steady,
Let the solid ground beneath you remind you that you don't have to hold it all.
Open your heart to these words,
May I love and accept how I am being stretched right now,
May I lean deeper into my edges and my growth.
May I embrace the mystery and the unknown,
May I anchor deeper into trusting my experience,
Knowing that it is all happening for me,
May I surrender knowing that there is nothing I need to control or force,
May I let go of any preconceived ideas I have about how this season of my life should be and surrender to the process of unfolding.
Let it go.
Notice what has landed on your heart,
What can you carry with you,
Maybe notice a shift within you,
Maybe a deeper connection to the abundant source of peace within you.
Only when you are ready,
Bring awareness to your surroundings,
Let it be really slow,
Feel your hips sink into the cushion beneath you,
Notice the air around you,
Eventually finding intuitive movement to reawaken the body,
And on your next inhale,
Blink your eyes open if they were closed,
Exhale let it go,
Gently looking around,
May you remember your breath is always there to anchor you,
To support you,
From my heart to yours.
