A practice to help you untangle from anxiety, worry, stress and struggle and rest in the mind in the moment.
So just taking a moment to really get comfortable and settled in here for this meditation. And allowing your eyes to close when you're ready. And now taking three deep, slow, full breaths. So breathing in. Breathing out and just letting go of the breath and seeing if you can also let go of any tension and tightness in the body.
Just taking two more breaths just like that, in your own time now. And with each exhale again, just getting that sense of allowing any tension or tightness to soften a little and let go. And then at the end of this exhale, just letting go of any control of the breathing and let the breath settle into its own rhythm. Just continuing now to stay in touch with the feeling of the breath moving in the body, Just resting attention on that flowing feeling of the breathing. And resting in the present moment, resting in the breath.
So for many of us it can be quite hard to take a pause from all the urges to fix and change things around. So you might find your mind racing to kind of do your to-do list, plan something, or think about goals. Maybe your mind is wandering to, an exciting experience you could have in the future instead of being here and now. We often do so much of this kind of stuff, striving towards getting something or becoming more. We do so much of it that we often end up running ourselves into the ground.
We so rarely just let ourselves be. Through mindfulness we can learn to unwind that habit unwind from the rushing and the striving and the constant struggle with self improvement so that we can cultivate deep contentment and find a more fulfilling way of living our days. So just for these last moments of practice, see if he can just let things be. Just let yourself be and just relax and enjoy the flow of the breath moving in your body. There's nothing else you need to do right now.
Nothing you need to solve. Nothing more you need to become. So just resting, giving yourself this time and space to simply be and feeling the breath moving in your body. And as the practice now comes towards a close, just notice how your mind and body are feeling after taking this time out to simply be. And taking now a deep breath in.
And letting it go, as you begin to wriggle the fingers and toes. And when you're ready, opening the eyes, I'm wishing you a great day ahead.
