Welcome to this guided meditation.
My name is Yogi Brian.
Find your comfortable spot,
Your comfortable space.
Either laying on your back,
Keeping the body straight,
Knees slightly bent,
Palms either facing up or down.
Or you can have a seat,
Legs crossed,
Spine straight,
Chin parallel to the mat,
Or sitting on a chair.
Any position where your body can remain still.
And allow the eyes to softly close.
Breathing your natural breath.
Either in and out through the nose or in and out through the mouth.
Just your natural breath here.
You've been breathing all your life.
Don't overthink it.
Just breathe.
If you feel antsy or nervous that's totally normal,
Just allow your body to settle.
Giving yourself time to settle.
All you have to do is breathe.
Bringing your awareness to the breath.
Allowing your breath to just be.
Noticing how the breath feels.
Natural breath in and out.
Clearing away any to-do list you have for your day.
Wiping clean any expectations you have for your day.
All you have to do is breathe.
Giving yourself permission to relax.
Noticing the breath smoothing out.
Noticing the mind starting to smooth out.
Each and every breath you take you relax even more and more.
Noticing any tension in the body pinpoint that tension in the body.
Ask yourself where am I holding the tension?
Once you find where the tension is give yourself permission to relax.
Give yourself permission to release the tension.
Each and every breath you take release the tension.
Shoulders start to relax.
Jaw starts to relax.
Eyelids are so relaxed here.
Eyelids are so relaxed.
It's hard to open your eyes.
Try to open your eyes.
It's just so hard to open your eyelids.
Whole body relaxes now.
And allowing your mind to be.
Allowing the thoughts to be.
Just watch the thoughts.
Like you're sitting in a movie theater and your thoughts are on the screen.
Just watch the thoughts.
Allow them to be.
Nothing to do or control.
Be the observer.
Be the observer.
Watching the thoughts,
Observing the thoughts.
No expectation.
Just allow those thoughts to ebb and flow.
Now bring in your awareness back to the breath.
Noticing how the breath feels now.
Noticing how the body feels.
Noticing how the mind feels.
Feeling this tranquility,
This calmness,
This relaxation.
Embracing the present moment.
And feeling gratitude for the breath.
Taking up one breath at a time.
Taking up one breath at a time today.
Take a nice deep inhale through the nose.
On an exhale,
Open the mouth side out.
Taking up one breath at a time today.
Thank you so much for meditating with me today.
Hope you have an amazing day.
Namaste.
