This is your time to soften,
To unwind what the day has wrapped around you,
To melt gently into this moment.
And so starting by finding a position that feels comfortable.
You can sit or lie down,
Wherever you choose,
Letting yourself soften into the support beneath you.
There's nothing you need to hold right now.
It's okay to let go.
Let's take a breath in together and release with a gentle sigh.
A few more like this,
In through the nose,
Sighing it out through the mouth.
And as you do,
Letting your jaw soften,
Letting your shoulders drop.
Feeling your belly open to receive the breath,
Nothing to fix,
Just an invitation to arrive right here.
And now bringing your awareness to your feet,
Can you feel their contact with the surface beneath you and allowing your breath to flow as if it's flowing all the way down to your feet,
Letting them feel supported and now slowly moving your attention up to your ankles,
Your calves and shins,
And with each breath,
Inviting them to soften a little more,
Experiencing the breath like a warm current moving through you,
Unwinding tension you didn't even know was there.
And on the exhale,
Allowing your whole system to melt.
And now bringing your awareness to your thigh,
This part of the body can hold so much.
Letting your breath be an offering of tenderness.
With each exhale,
Experiencing any tension releasing,
Like a ribbon coming undone,
Unfolding into a greater state of ease,
Allowing your pelvis to become heavy,
Letting gravity take over,
And now bringing awareness to your abdomen,
Your center,
Experiencing the rhythm of your breath like a tight,
Breathing in deeply,
And with each exhale,
Letting go a little more,
Continuing to flow your attention higher,
Feeling the breath expanding through your ribs,
The space behind your heart,
Can you feel into the energy of your heart,
Even a little,
If emotion wants to come at any stage,
Let it flow,
Knowing that it's not yours to hold,
And now gently bringing your attention to your hands,
Your fingers,
Letting them soften,
Breathing into your arms,
Your shoulders,
Releasing anything that feels tight or held,
Bringing your attention to your neck,
Your jaw,
Even the muscles behind your ears,
And experiencing your whole body now,
If any thoughts arise,
Let them flow by,
Like clouds,
Gently bringing your awareness back to your body,
Finding more softness,
More ease,
You can stay here for as long as you like,
In the softness,
In the spaciousness,
