This is an eight part breath alternating between mouth and nose for the eight parts,

Breathing both in and out and holding at the top for as long as you're able or is comfortable.

This is a breath where you are doing small sips through the nose and then the mouth,

So alternating.

So you're doing nose for eight parts,

Holding at the top,

Then breathing out through nose and mouth,

Alternating small sips and so forth.

So let's begin.

Closing your eyes and just taking a moment to feel into the body.

Feel if there's any tension,

Aches or pains.

Feel into the mind.

Is it focused?

Is it scattered?

Is it racing with thoughts?

Do this without judgment.

We're just feeling into the body.

We'll begin in through the nose,
