Breathing Break
Sit comfortably or lie back and soften your gaze. Turn your attention to your breath, being with the breath as it enters your body, fills your body, and then leaves your body...
See if you can let go of
everything else, bringing all your attention and awareness to
your breathing. Feel the body expand with the inhalation and
relax with the exhalation. Breathe all the air out before you
take the next breath in...
Still keeping your attention on your breathing, see if you can
expand your awareness to include your whole body, feeling
whatever you're resting against, each breath allowing you to let
go and sink back into whatever is supporting you. Feel
your heart beat, notice your pulse in various parts of your
body. Check in with your digestion. Notice if there
are any places of tightness or tension in your body...
If you find tightness or tension, breathe your next inhalation to that part of your being, and as you exhale let the tightness or tension leave your body with the breath...
Continue to breathe evenly, with ease. Allow the peaceful feeling of contentment to wash over you...
