Welcome to this simple body breath based grounding practice.
You can do this practice anytime you want to,
Maybe right upon waking or before bed,
Or in the middle of the night,
If you can't sleep,
Or anytime in between.
Anytime that you wanna just pause and connect with your own body and breath and the support,
The physical support that is available to you in that moment.
So when you're ready,
If you would like,
Maybe starting to find a position that feels as stable and as at ease as is possible in this moment.
So this could be seated,
This could be lying back,
This could be standing.
Any position where you feel supported and at ease in your body to whatever degree is possible in this moment.
And as you're getting situated,
If you want to,
Maybe beginning to notice the parts of your body that are supported right now physically by whatever is beneath you or behind you,
If you're sitting against a chair back or a wall,
You can do this practice.
So if you're sitting against a chair back or a wall,
Starting to perhaps notice the physical support that is here for your body in whatever position you're in.
Maybe starting to let your muscles soften a bit as you receive that support.
Maybe allowing yourself to be held or supported by the ground or whatever you're sitting,
Standing or lying on.
And if you would like maybe beginning to sense your breathing,
If you haven't already,
Maybe starting to feel your breath coming in through your nose or through your mouth and your breath leaving through your nose or through your mouth.
And just maybe following your breath with your awareness as it comes and goes in your own natural rhythm.
And maybe starting to feel the movement of your breath inside of your body,
Maybe feeling the movement of your breath in your chest or your belly.
Maybe some movement in your rib cage or perhaps in your back,
If you want to maybe noticing where you feel your breath moving in your body as you breathe.
Maybe three or four more breaths.
And then when you feel ready,
Maybe bringing your awareness to the parts of your body once again,
That are supported right now physically by whatever is beneath you.
Bringing your awareness to your grounding points,
These parts of your body that are grounded to whatever is beneath you in this moment.
And maybe just taking a few breaths as you really sense that physical contact between your body and whatever is beneath you.
And if you want to,
You could experiment with bringing your breath to touch those areas,
Your grounding points,
Or to fill those areas.
Maybe three or four more breaths as you consciously sense your grounding points in this moment as you breathe.
And then feel free to continue longer if you wish to,
Sensing into your grounding points as well as your breath.
And if you feel ready to begin to transition,
Maybe starting to bring some movement into your body,
Perhaps your fingers and toes,
Maybe a little bit of movement into your neck,
Just gently stretching.
Maybe some bigger stretches in your arms and your legs if you want to.
Just finding your organic natural movements,
Stretches,
If you're transitioning now.
Maybe a couple more breaths,
Maybe even a bit of a deeper breath with an exhalation out your open mouth if you wish to.
Yeah,
Thank you so much for grounding,
For connecting with your body and your breath and the support that you felt beneath your body.
And I hope that you have a wonderful day.
Thank you so much for being here.
And I hope that you have a wonderful day.
