Start to take some deep breaths in and out of your nose,
Good,
And breathe in all the way from your hips,
Feel your belly expanding,
Your baby breathing,
Your lungs,
And exhale,
Release.
Feel the body a little softer,
Heavier,
Good.
And again,
Breathe in,
Feel your whole body expanding with air and nourishing your blood,
Your baby,
Breathe out.
And again,
Breathe in,
Filling up your body,
Your lungs,
Your chest,
And breathe out.
And exhale,
Feel your whole body expanding with air,
Taking up all the space.
Really good,
Exhale,
Good,
And start to focus on your feet.
Feel your awareness shift down into your feet,
Fully relaxing your feet and your toes,
Your ankles,
Good,
With each exhale,
A little softer,
A little more surrendered.
Bring your awareness to your ankles,
Your shins,
Your calves,
And as you exhale,
Fully soften and release your ankles,
Your shins,
And your calves,
And bring your awareness to your knees,
Your thighs,
And gently relaxing the muscles in your legs,
Your knees.
Bring your awareness to your hips,
To your pelvic floor,
To your seat.
Exhale,
Gently releasing the pelvic floor,
Seat,
And the hips soft.
Bring your awareness to your belly,
To the muscles around your belly,
Your lower back.
Exhale and soften the muscles and the bones around your belly and your lower back.
Bring your awareness to your internal organs,
Sharing space with your baby,
Relaxing your internal organs as you exhale.
Bring your awareness now to your baby,
Inside your belly,
Taking up space,
And exhale,
Softening with your baby,
Feeling your belly,
Your body relaxed,
Connected,
And soft.
Breathe in and visualize air coming in,
Nourishing you,
Nourishing your baby,
Together as one.
Exhale,
Softening together as one.
Bring your awareness to your chest,
To your heart,
Your heart beating.
Exhale and soften the chest and your heart,
Your lungs.
Just for a moment,
Bring your awareness to your shoulders,
Your neck.
Soften as you exhale,
Your shoulders,
Your neck.
Bring your awareness to your arms,
All the way down to your elbows,
Your wrists,
Your fingertips.
Exhale,
Soften your arms,
Left and right,
All the way down to your fingertips.
Bring your awareness to your head,
Your throat,
Your face.
Soften,
Relax.
Bring your awareness all the way to the crown of your head,
Whole head and face.
Soften and relax around your whole head and face,
All the way from the top of your head,
Down to your feet,
Your toes,
Soft and relaxed.
Breathing in and feeling your whole body expanding.
Breathing out,
Surrendering a little bit more.
Good.
Now,
Gently shift your focus,
Your awareness,
Back to your heart.
Back to your heart space,
Connecting with your heart beat.
Feeling your heart beating perfectly for you with no effort,
No effort from your conscious mind,
With ease and trust.
Your body's wisdom and intelligence keeping you alive.
With each heart beat,
Feeling blood pumping to your veins,
To your body.
Your energy and your life force,
Your breath,
Your prana being nourished.
Together,
Blood and breath.
Feeling your lungs expanding with air,
Oxygen nourishing your blood.
With no effort,
Enhancing this trust in your body,
Working perfectly for you.
Your energy,
All the energy in your internal landscape,
In your body.
Not the mental energy,
The wheels that turn in your head,
But focusing now on the energy of your body.
The primal energy that pulses through your body,
Through your veins.
Feeling your heart beat again,
Connecting back to the space,
With love and gratitude for your beautiful body,
Creating life,
Sustaining life,
Nourishing life.
Bringing your awareness to your belly again.
Bringing your awareness to your baby,
The life your body is magically creating and sustaining.
Even if you can't viscerally feel it,
Bring into your mind's eye the visualization of the heart beat of your baby,
Knowing that it's there,
Beating with your heart.
The baby's blood nourished by your breath.
Grounding in this trust,
Grounding in this connection of your bodies together,
Of your body creating and holding space and beautiful connection.
Feel this beautiful,
Strong energy from the inside out,
Drawing your awareness to the center of your body,
To your core.
Feeling the strength and power of this beautiful energy coming from within you.
So many micro-miracles happening inside your body.
Cells forming,
Organs growing,
Muscles moving,
Breath nourishing,
Releasing,
Releasing what you no longer need for yourself,
For your future,
And creating space for what is true,
For you,
For your body,
For your baby.
Enhancing the trust inside your body,
Your neural networks,
Which exist perfectly with no effort,
These pathways of conception and creation.
Dropping out of the head and into the body,
Grounding our energy and trust from deep within.
Feeling your own energy through focusing on the energy of your baby,
If there's any movement,
Even if it's really subtle.
Tuning into the energy of this being inside of you,
And focusing your awareness on the energy of this being.
Zooming out a little bit now and focusing back on your energy,
Energy of your body and your heart.
Maybe expanding your awareness a bit back to the body,
Your chest,
Your shoulders,
Down to your toes,
Your feet.
And being aware of these two energies rhyming together,
Being in harmony together.
Mama and baby,
Holding space for each other,
And feeling the power of this energy.
Coming back again and again to feeling this energy in the body.
And just by using our awareness,
Noticing it's there,
Noticing its strength,
Its presence.
Notice anything that's coming up,
Your feeling in your body,
Your heart,
Your energetic bodies.
Creating space to breathe and explore what is there.
Playing with what is there,
Feeling grounded and rooted and expansive from within,
From the center point.
And maybe it feels good to deepen your breath again.
Last one like this,
Breathing in through your nose,
Ease,
Expanding your awareness back to your physical body,
Laying down.
And if it feels good,
You can make some subtle movements and eventually coming back to your day,
Or just staying here,
Laying down,
Maybe drifting off to sleep or resting a bit longer.
