Slow down,

And bring yourself back home. 

PAUSE…

Find the rhythm of your breathing.

The slow rise of your belly and chest and you breathe in.

And the contraction of your body as you breathe out.

PAUSE…

Be here,

With your breath.

Riding its gentle waves in and out of your body.

Over and over again, 

Settling into its cycle.

LONG PAUSE…

 Now take a big, deep breath in,

Imagining the air clearing out what’s inside.

Hold it for just a moment.

And then breathe out,

Releasing the air, and everything not needed inside. 

PAUSE…

Breathe in deep again,

This time letting the air stretch your spine straight,

From the bottom of your tailbone,

All the way up to the crown of your head.

And then let the air go,

Exhaling and softening your body into comfort. 

PAUSE…

Relax your breathing,

And let it find a nice, easy rhythm.  

PAUSE…

Notice the natural slowing down of your breathing,

And clearing of your mind,

As you focus your attention on the air coming in,

And the air going out. 

Breathing in,

Breathing out. 

PAUSE…

Let the thoughts pass,

As you come back to your breath.

LONG PAUSE…

Now take another full, deep breath in,

Gathering up any thoughts, 

Worries, 

Or plans,

And holding your breath for just a moment at the top.

Hold it.

And then let it go, 

Releasing all the air, 

All the worries, 

All the thoughts, 

All the plans,

Into the space around you,

Watching them dissolve and disappear. 

PAUSE…

Now hold yourself up straight as you breathe in one last big breath,

Expanding your spine and releasing the tension within,

Imagining all that air rising to the top of your head,

And then exhale,

Releasing your breath,

Calming your mind,

And relaxing your body. 

PAUSE…

Let yourself settle once again into the steady, easy flow of your breathing.

And just be here for a bit.

PAUSE…

Feeling light.

Clear.

Fresh.

LONG PAUSE…

Namaste, Beautiful
