In this short guided experience you will slip into a deepened awareness and kindly acceptance of your physical body... This idea of cultivating our body awareness starts by developing a sense of lightness of the body as you bring awareness to your breath. Relaxing your body while the mind is completely aware is a wonderful gift.

Feel the body connected to the floor.

Feel the awareness of your body.

Start to make small movements of your body,

Wiggling your fingers and toes a bit,

Nice deep breath,

Breathing in and out.

When you're ready,

Gently blinking your eyes open,

Taking this awareness of your body with you into the rest of your day.
