Settle into a comfortable,
Supported position.
Let your whole body relax into stillness.
Take a slow inhale and a long exhale.
Allow your breath to soften.
Imagine a gentle darkness around you,
Quiet,
Calm,
Comforting,
Like the moment just before dawn.
We'll begin with a slow,
Steady body scan.
Bring awareness to the crown of the head,
Forehead,
Cheeks,
Jaw.
Allow the face to melt,
Throat,
Collarbones,
Shoulders,
Arms,
Hands,
Feet,
Knees,
Toes,
And hands.
Let the arms become heavy,
Chest,
Ribs,
Belly,
Pelvis.
Release any holding,
Hips,
Thighs,
Knees,
Shins,
Ankles,
Feet,
Knees,
Toes,
Hands,
Feet,
Knees,
Feet.
The entire body rests.
Now,
Imagine you are standing at a threshold between this year and the next,
A doorway of light.
Behind you,
Everything you've carried,
Learned,
Navigated,
Survived.
Ahead of you,
Space,
Softness,
Possibility.
Imagine placing the weight of the year behind you.
With gratitude,
Without gripping,
Feel the doorway widening.
Now,
Bring one intention to mind.
Not a goal,
Not pressure,
A feeling you want to carry forward.
Maybe softness,
Steadiness,
Clarity,
Joy.
Hold this intention gently at the center of your chest.
With each inhale,
Let it expand.
With each exhale,
Let it settle.
Imagine stepping through the threshold into a new space filled with light.
Rest here.
Nothing to rush.
When you're ready to return,
Deepen your breath.
Feel your body supported beneath you.
Move slowly and rise with your intention intact.
