So why not subscribe and make mindfulness part of your daily routine. But now find your quiet place to sit or lie down somewhere you won't be disturbed headphones as well if you prefer, and close your eyes so that with your imagination you can expand your awareness to connect to feel, to explore the almost hypnotic rhythm and the rise and form of each and every breath.
Truly a moment of time in your lifeline, to find balance, to find peace within the sanctuary of your thoughts. So feel your breathing now intimately like never before. To be aware as you inhale of each subtle change, every sensation, as your chest in flight expands and rises. Take your time to explore them all, from the lowest part of your ribs to your shoulders, from your spine to the front of your chest. Feel it, Embrace it, understanding and appreciating the shifting rise and form the ever changing sensations.
Take all the time you need. Your only focus is this mind and body connection between thought and feeling. But with every outbreath, you open your awareness, You tune in the simple joy of release, of blissful relaxation. Every outbreath a sigh that touches the core of your soul, that releases the negativity and doubt of the day, that lets go the stress, the tension. Truly allow yourself this moment right now, to heal, to find balance within. But with every outbreath, with every thoughtful connection, you truly allow yourself to unwind, to release the negative thoughts, the tensions, and drift deeply, now further and further down, deeper and deeper and deeper, still breathing in passion, excitement, hope, exhaling the negative thoughts that hold you back, relax, unwind, truly floating further and further down. Imagine all the stress just evaporating from the surface of your skin, and almost as if being bathed in warm summer sunshine. It eases away the tension, the stress. It unties the knots in your muscles, and you relax, and you unwind, and you just float, so that in the beauty of your mind's eye as you exhale, now you see these wonderful words of positive change. You whisper them softly in your soughts. You feel them and embrace them. So relax, unwind, imagine and repeat. I listen to my body with patience and deep appreciation. I listen to my body with patience and deep appreciation. I listen to my body with patience and deep appreciation. I listen to my body with patience and deep appreciation. And with every repetition, every outbreath, still you continue in allowing yourself to just drift to one more, to truly let go the panic, the fear, the worries, the regrets, and move forward in positivity with self worth and focus. So relax, now ever deeper, and once more, imagine and repeat. I listen to my body with patience and deep appreciation. I listen to my body with patience and deep appreciation. I listened to my body with patience and deep appreciation. I listen to my body with patience and deep appreciation. Further and further down, unwinding, relaxing, finding peace and harmony flowing through every thought, every future decision. Relax deeply and safely, truly allow yourself to heal, to grow, to set yourself free, and then again imagine and repeat. I listen to my body with patience and deep appreciation. I listen to my body with patience and deep appreciation. I listened to my body with patience and deep appreciation. I listened to my body with patience and deep appreciation.
