Welcome to the grounding breath meditation.
The grounding breath helps us to stay present and close to our center.
When we feel stressed,
Ungrounded and exhausted,
We often times experience that we are far out of the body.
It is recommended to practice this breathing meditation lying down on the floor or if available to you directly in the grass,
In the garden or somewhere outside where you can feel and touch the earth.
Take a moment to settle in and set your practice intention.
Inhale and exhale gently through the nose and arrive in your body.
Feel the earth underneath you.
She is holding you and supporting you.
Feel how your head,
Shoulders,
Arms,
Buttock,
Your legs and your feet are touching the ground.
It's the connection to the earth.
We slowly begin with the breathing practice.
Breathe in through your nose for 4 seconds and exhale gently through your mouth for 8 seconds.
Breathe in through your nose for 4 seconds and exhale gently through your mouth for 8 seconds.
Listen to your breath and try to focus more on the long,
Steady exhalation out of your mouth.
Breathe in through your nose,
Exhale gently through your mouth.
Bring your awareness to the soles of your feet and with the inhale imagine drawing up energy from the earth into the soles of your feet,
Up to your legs,
To your hips,
To your belly,
Chest and head.
Imagine the energy flowing from your head,
Chest,
Belly,
Hips,
Legs back down through the soles of your feet to the earth.
Breathe in slowly for 4 seconds,
Draw up the energy from the earth and exhale gently to your mouth for 8 and feel how the energy is flowing back to the earth.
Breathe in slowly,
Exhale gently through your mouth,
Exhale gently through your lips,
Exhale gently through your nose,
The long steady exhalation out through your mouth.
Inhale slowly through your nose,
Draw up the energy from the earth,
Exhale gently through your lips,
Exhale slowly out your mouth.
Bring the energy back to the earth.
Breathe in slowly,
Exhale gently through your lips,
Exhale gently through your lips,
Exhale gently through your lips,
Exhale gently through your lips,
Exhale gently through your mouth for 8.
Breathe in slowly,
Exhale gently through your lips,
Exhale gently through your lips,
Exhale gently come back to your natural breathing rhythm,
Breathe in and out through your nose,
Rest for a moment and notice how you feel.
Thank you for breathing with me.
Have a wonderful rest of your day.
