Taking a deep breath
Noticing your body’s position
Easing into your body
Now take ten deep breaths…
And as you continue your deep breaths
With each breath
Sensing your body relax
Sinking further and deeper in a relaxed position
Feeling warm relaxation enter you from your toes
Through your feet
And your heels
Acknowledging that your feet hold you up day after day
Giving thanks for what your feet do for you
Feeling peace inside you
Warm relaxation now travels to your ankles
And with each breath, this warmth flows up your calves, the back of your knee, to your hamstrings
Feeling your body go deeper in a state of pure serenity
This warmth now flows up your shins, your knees and your quadriceps
As it flows, it hugs your legs
And wraps you in a profound
love
Now take ten deep breaths as you
fully experience the relaxation in your legs…
Welcome the warm relaxation to your groin, your hips and your pelvic area
Honor the strength of your core as the warmth continues upward
Giving thanks to your digestive system for nourishing and cleansing you
And take ten full breaths as you restore your core...
Feel the relaxation now circulate in your lower back
Massaging you
Releasing tension
And it slowly flows up to your upper back
Feel your muscles and your spine release tension with each breath
And simply notice how much lighter your back is
With awareness of how your body feels right now, take ten deep breaths...
Feel the warmth hug you now
Up the sides of your body
Into your chest
Receive this love
Receive this embrace
Receive this acceptance
Noticing the love and warmth flow to your shoulders
Your upper arms, your elbows, your forearms and now to your wrists
Allowing each muscle to relax
And experience peace
Feel the warm relaxation now flow to your palms, your hands, and your fingers
One by one each finger and thumb is appreciated
And now take ten deep breaths,
noticing the relaxation in your body...
Now take ten deep breaths as you
fully experience the relaxation in your legs…
Feel the warmth flow to the base of your neck
And moving up to the top of your head
As it massages you and relaxes you
Give your mind the opportunity to truly relax
Savor each sensation as the warmth circles to your forehead
Your temples, your eyes, your ears, your cheeks
Your nose, your mouth, your chin, your jaw
And in these next ten breaths, absorb the relaxation even further....
Your body is relaxed
Your cells are restored
Your spirit is reinvigorated
Continue your breathing
Continue your healing
Continue your time as you see fit
And invite the warm relaxation to stay with you
