Hello everyone,
Thank you for joining me on this guided meditation which will last five minutes or so.
This meditation is to jumpstart your day or simply to go to bed later tonight.
You can also listen to it while you're driving or if you're taking a break during your work day to kind of recenter.
This practice is very simple,
It's all about the breath.
So we're going to begin by bringing the attention to the breath,
Deep inhale,
Deep exhales.
Maybe you're laying down,
Maybe you're sitting down at your desk,
Whatever position you just chose I want to invite you to check in with yourself to see if you could be five or ten percent more comfortable.
Opening the shoulders,
Relaxing your neck,
Softening your hips,
Just inviting a little bit of movement side to side to find this sweet spot.
Whenever you do find it,
We'll bring the attention back to the breath and in this right moment we're nothing else than a simple observer of our own physical body.
We're only noticing each and every sensations attached to the breath.
Feeling the colder air coming up your nostrils as you're inhaling and the warmer air coming out as you're excelling.
Feeling your belly lightly expanding on the inhale and gently contracting on the exhale.
It's not about how many times you lose the breath,
It's about how many times you come back to it.
In this right moment during this five minute break,
We have nothing to do,
Nowhere to go,
Nothing to fix,
No one to impress.
We're surrendering anything that happened earlier today,
Later today,
Next week,
Next month,
It's just about now.
It's about bringing the attention,
Bringing the attention to all sensations happening in your own physical body.
It's about tuning into everything that's happening within you.
Maybe you'll feel a couple of tensions and if that's the case,
We'll simply direct the breath towards that place in our physical bodies where we're feeling the tensions.
The breath is our anchor,
It's our best friend.
This is what is helping us to connect to now.
So again,
When you feel different tensions,
Maybe in your lower back,
Maybe in your upper back,
Maybe in your hips,
You can direct the breath,
Really feeling,
Breathing in that part of the body that's a little tense in order to allow those different tensions to melt.
Staying around with the breath,
Directing it to different places of the body,
Allowing all of the tensions to melt away one by one.
If the mind is becoming a little too present,
You always have the ability to deepen the breath for a couple rounds in order to surrender any excess of thoughts.
The thoughts are here,
The goal is not to suppress them.
The goal is to embrace them and to work with our own thoughts,
To acknowledge that they're rising and to let them go,
Not let them take over.
The mind is a tool and we have the ability to gain the control over it,
To allow the mind to serve us instead of serving it.
And that's what we're doing by reclaiming our powers and simply,
Simply tuning in to this breath.
Maybe a couple deeper inhales,
A couple deeper exhales,
Surrendering anything heavy that you're still carrying.
We'll take three deep breaths together,
Deep inhale through the nose,
Inhaling deep,
Bright light,
Deep inhale.
And we're going to exhale all out through the mouth,
Letting go all of the density.
Two more deep inhale,
Inhaling deep light,
Letting go of the density.
Last one again,
Inhaling deep,
Deep light to the top of your lungs,
Deep inhale,
Letting out all of the negativity.
We'll bring our hands to our heart,
One hand on top of the other.
Take a second for thanking yourself for showing up for those five minutes of self-healing.
Five minutes for yourself,
Five minutes to breathe.
Thank you for joining me during this practice and for this journey today.
To many,
Many more hours of practice together and exploration of the inner worlds.
Again,
Thank you for joining,
Namaste,
I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day,
Wonderful morning,
Evening,
Whenever you decided to go on this journey.
Blessings to you all.
