Hello and thank you so much for joining me for this mind over endopain meditation where we use science-based mindfulness tools to manage your endometriosis stress,
Pain and anxiety when you're ready,
I invite you to close your eyes or keep an unfocused gaze in front of you whichever you prefer,
Sitting up straight or lying down your head,
Shoulders,
Belly and full body slowly relaxing we'll start with just a deep breath in through the nose an extra quick inhale filling all the way up and a deep exhale out just sighing it out one more time deep breath in through the nose through the belly an extra quick inhale filling all the way up and a deep exhale out great job we'll just start by gently bringing your attention to your breath feel the air as it moves in and out of your body notice the coolness of the air as you inhale and the warmth as you exhale let your breath flow naturally without forcing it with each breath feel your body softening releasing any tightness we'll just shift your focus to your body starting with your head notice any sensations here the muscles in your forehead the space around your eyes and your jaw as you exhale allow these areas to relax slowly scan down to your neck and shoulders breathing deeply and letting go of any tightness you may be holding just take a nice deep breath in feel your lungs expanding expanding with each inhale and releasing with each exhale if there's any heaviness or discomfort here simply observe it without judgment let your breath soften the space around your heart and feel the magnetic energy of your heart slowly expand we'll just direct your awareness to your abdomen notice how your belly gently rises and falls with each breath with each exhale as you exhale let your stomach relax releasing any tension or knots that might be there as you continue to breathe deeply bring your awareness to your legs all the way down to your feet feel them grounded and connected to the earth with each breath let your legs and feet relax allowing any remaining tension to just melt away hopefully your body is feeling relaxed and your breath is steady we'll just take a moment to set an intention for yourself this intention can be anything perhaps you want to invite more calm into your life ease anxiety create space for healing maybe it's setting better boundaries with people or work while remaining the mindful,
Cool,
Calm cat that you are or maybe you just want to see the humor and joy in life again after your pain has robbed you blind of it whatever it is bring that intention to the front of your mind and just breathe deeply into your intention feeling it planting its seeds in your heart and taking root throughout your entire being growing stronger with every inhale and exhale and as you continue to breathe visualize this intention becoming part of you guiding your actions and thoughts throughout your day allow yourself to feel the energy of this intention filling your entire body with all the good feels changing you on a molecular level just take a few more deep breaths feeling grounded in your body and connected to your intention we'll just arrive back to the room by taking a deep breath in and a big exhale out with a nice long sigh we'll wiggle the fingers and toes give ourselves a nice gentle stretch and slowly open your eyes you're doing so great warrior be sure to look for ways to ground yourself and your intention throughout your day watering the seeds of it with every mindful moment go on now you've got this
