I Choose to See Miracle A 10 Minute Somatic Reset for Anxiety Relief & Inner Peace

10 minutes of guided meditation, a somatic reset for anxiety relief. Just for a second, stop. You've been running on optimization mode, trying to squeeze every drop of productivity out of your day. But today, we are changing the metric of success to the miracles that exist right in front of us.

You are not your thoughts, you are not the person listening to them. And today, we are going to find the gap between you and the noise. Welcome to the calming anxiety podcast. I'm your guide Martin.

This 10 minute session is designed for mindfulness for beginners and deep anxiety relief. We are setting our daily intentions to reclaim your space and find your centre of inner peace. So find your quiet place now. Somewhere comfy to sit or lie down where you won't be disturbed for a while.

And cross your legs and arms as we want an open body to invite an open mind. We will begin with the double inhale breath. Currently, the fast is proven way to hack your nervous system and turn off the panic response.

And inhale deeply through your nose, then take a second tiny sip of more air at the top to fully pop those lungs open. Now let out a long, slow, audible sigh through the mouth. Again, inhale, sip a bit more and then release like a balloon deflating.

Keep this rhythm going to signal to your brain that you are safe.

Now bring your attention to the muscles around your jaw. Unclench your teeth and drop your tongue away from the roots of your mouth. Let a wave of softness travel down your neck and into your shoulders. Imagine offloading a heavy backpack, slipping it from your shoulders and letting it hit the floor.

You do not have to carry the weight of the world for the next 10 minutes. Scan down now through to your belly and allow it to soften. There is no armor, no protection needed here. As you exhale, imagine the negativity of the weak leaving your body.

Exceed your breath on a cold winter's morning. You imagine the darkness as if like a grey mist. Watch the mist dissolve, dissipating and vanishing into the air, leaving behind only clarity and peace of mind. Keep it deeper and deeper.

You allow yourself to unwind, to relax, to find true peace and harmony within the sanctuary of your consciousness. Right now you are flipping the switch from fight or fight to rest and digest.

If your mind wanders gently, shepherd it back to the tiny moment of silence at the bottom of the outrath. That is where your peace lives, rest in the pause. You are the mountain, you are still and grounded while your thoughts pass like clouds.

Let us now move on to the powerful and positive affirmations, repeating these words silently within your own mind's eye or whisper them within tent with true belief.

I choose to see the miracles around me.

My energy is renewing itself with every conscious breath I take.

I am honouring my capacity, not just my output.

I choose to see the miracles around me.

I am grounded, I am present and I am free. And now relax, ever deeper.

Honoring yourself with this gift of time to heal and reset. And I wonder if you would imagine a small glowing ember of light at your solar plexus in the center of your torso with every ember of the light grows brighter and warmer.

This is your pilot light that never goes out. Imagine this golden radiance spreading down your arms through your heart and down into your legs. You are becoming your own source of heat and light. And now imagine you are standing at the door of a beautiful cabin.

You open the door to find the storm has passed and the sky is a brilliant, clear blue.

As you step outside you see a tiny green shoot poking through the snow. These are your miracles. New beginnings, fresh joy and the laughter you are ready to feel. You are no longer huddling for warmth.

You are opening up to receive it. You are not behind. You were just resting and it is safe now for you to shine again. Your energy is like the sat in a tree rising up from the roots to wake up your heart.

You are thoring out and allowing the natural rhythm of life to return. Focus on the physical sensation of this goodness growing from a tiny spark into a warm glow.

To help see the miracles in your daily life here are three caring tips. Then practice glimmer hunting, challenge yourself to find three tiny things that feel good, like a nice smell or a funny song and simply say to yourself that is a glimmer so that you train your brain to lower anxiety. Two, the fresh air first rule, step outside for just five minutes before you look at any screen simply to remind the body the world is big and open. Three, practice unspoken gratitude by looking at someone tonight and silently listing three things you appreciate about them to naturally improve your atmosphere.

Now gently start to bring your awareness back to your surroundings. Wiggle your fingers and your toes. Take one final deep energizing breath and stretch out the muscles in your arms and legs as you exhale. This is your winter radiance.
