Gently close your eyes.
Anchor your attention on my voice.
Take a very deep breath in through your nose,
Into your belly and exhale slowly through your mouth.
It is time for you to create a feeling of calmness that you can,
If you choose,
Create within you any time a feeling of anxiety arises.
It is time for you to realize you have an incredible capacity to feel calm and confident at any time,
In any place,
With any person.
Take a deep breath in through your nose,
Into your belly and exhale slowly through your mouth.
This calmness is already within you.
It was there the day that you were born.
It is a feeling of safety and knowing that you belong in this world.
It is within you,
But together we must help you to practice recreating this feeling in your body and in your mind.
Feeling calm is like any other skill.
That is why if you wish to calm anxious feelings and stress,
You need to listen to this audio every day,
Even on the days that you feel good.
By doing this,
You will have an infinite supply of inner serenity whenever you require.
Take a deep breath in through your nose,
Into your belly and exhale slowly through your mouth.
Now as you continue to breathe deeply,
You will relax more and more deeply.
Just allow yourself to float across time and space and in a moment your subconscious mind is going to take you to a very special place.
A place associated with tremendous feelings of peacefulness,
Tranquility and safety.
It may be a place you have been before or some special place you find yourself in for the first time.
And you can allow such a place to spontaneously come into your awareness now.
And as you find yourself there,
Give yourself the opportunity to experience feelings of calmness and contentment,
Security and happiness associated with this wonderful place.
Allow your senses to fully awaken to this place.
Imagine the sounds,
Colors and aromas of this unique and special place.
And I wonder if you have already begun to notice the fact that as you experience and enjoy this special place,
That you can soak up and absorb these tranquil feelings and you can allow these feelings of deep contentment and peace and calm to flow all through you,
To all parts of you.
Allowing all of you to experience this soothing feeling.
And as each moment passes in this special place,
These wonderful invigorating feelings increase and become more a part of you.
Take a deep breath in through your nose,
Into your belly and exhale slowly through your mouth.
It's interesting to notice that when you feel anxious,
You may forget you have this immense serenity already accessible inside of you.
This innate capacity to feel calm,
To know that you are safe.
Imagine that for a moment you chose not to view anxiety as something to fear or to dread,
But instead to see it as a well-intentioned messenger.
A friend that has one desire only,
To protect you.
Now that you are learning how to feel calmer,
You may realize that your ability to feel calm can coexist alongside anxious feelings.
That when you breathe deep into the anxiety,
Accepting it,
Listening to its message,
The very thing you wish to happen starts to happen.
It gently dissolves like a heavy rain that transforms into a soft drizzle.
You can always reassure the part of you that feels anxiety that you know how to help it to feel calmer.
All you need to do is take a deep breath in through your nose,
Into your belly and exhale slowly through your mouth.
It is this simple.
Your body knows you are safe when you breathe deeply.
All is well in this moment,
The only moment you have.
All anxiety and fear melts through your ability to love all the parts of yourself.
All the imagined what-if scenarios in the future dissipates.
There is magic in uncertainty.
All should-haves from the past lose their power as you now choose to look upon yourself and others with compassion.
This moment and your ability to dwell in peace takes your full attention.
No future and no past.
Just this delicious moment that offers you the ability to soothe yourself,
To welcome anxiety like a lost friend and to accept all the parts of yourself with courage and love.
Take a deep breath in through your nose,
Into your belly and exhale slowly through your mouth.
Your subconscious mind knows what you most need to feel safe.
You have all the resources you need to meet any challenges that life may bring.
Never underestimate how strong you are.
Now you can remain in this special place for as long as you need.
You can remain in this place of contentment,
Tranquility and security for as long as you need,
Soaking up these feelings,
Receiving what you need.
And there is something that is going to be embedded and remain in your mind.
You will know that you can return to this special place of yours whenever you need or want.
You will know that whenever you need to feel calmer,
You can return to this special place simply by taking a deep breath in through your nose and exhaling slowly through your mouth.
And when you are ready,
You can drift back through time and space,
Bringing these wonderful feelings and this sense of calmness with you.
In a moment,
I will count slowly up to three and your eyes will open.
One,
Two and three.
Eyes open,
Feeling relaxed and yet alert.
