About this listen
Let's begin by finding a comfortable position. Whether you're sitting, standing, or lying down, allow your body to settle. Close your eyes if that feels good, or soften your gaze. Take a moment to notice where you're holding tension - perhaps in your shoulders, your jaw, or your hands.
Imagine your breath as a soft, fluid wave moving through your body. Breathe in slowly, drawing air deep into your lower belly, letting it rise like a gentle tide. Then exhale, releasing any tightness or stress, watching that wave recede. There's no perfect way to do this - just gentle, natural breathing.
Now, we'll practice what I call "ocean breathing." Inhale through your nose for a count of four, feeling your chest and belly expand like the rising ocean swell. Hold briefly at the top, then exhale through your mouth for six counts, imagining you're slowly releasing that wave back into the sea. Each breath is a small reset, a moment of pure presence.
Notice how your breath moves without effort. When thoughts drift in - and they will - simply acknowledge them like passing clouds. No judgment, just gentle recognition. Return to the rhythm of your breathing, your anchor in this moment.
As we complete our practice, take a final deep breath. Recognize that this moment of calm is always available to you, no matter what the day brings. You can return to this breathing technique anytime - waiting in line, before a meeting, or when you feel overwhelmed.
Thank you for spending these moments together. If this practice resonated with you, please subscribe to Mindful Moments. Until next time, breathe easy and be kind to yourself.
