About this listen
Take a moment right now to simply arrive. Feel your body settling into wherever you're sitting or standing. Let your shoulders soften, your jaw release, and imagine any tension beginning to melt away like gentle morning mist.
Breathe in slowly, and as you exhale, let go of anything that doesn't serve you in this moment. Your breath is like a faithful companion, always here, always steady, waiting to support you exactly as you are right now.
Today, we're going to explore what I call the "Ocean Breath" technique. Imagine your breath as waves - sometimes gentle, sometimes more pronounced, but always rhythmic and natural. Place one hand on your belly, and the other on your heart. As you breathe in, feel your belly expand like the tide rolling in - full, rich, expansive. Then as you exhale, let it fall back, just like waves retreating from the shore.
With each breath, you're creating a small sanctuary of calm. Notice how your breath moves - not forcing anything, simply observing. Some breaths might feel smooth, others might feel a bit choppy - and that's completely okay. Just like the ocean has its own natural rhythm, so does your breath.
If your mind wanders - and it will, because that's what minds do - gently guide your attention back to the sensation of breathing. No judgment, no criticism. Just a soft, kind return to the present moment.
As we complete our practice, take a deep breath in, and as you exhale, carry this sense of calm with you. Throughout your day, you can return to this ocean breath - even just for three breaths - whenever you need a moment of grounding.
Thank you for showing up for yourself today. If this practice resonated with you, please subscribe to Mindful Moments. We'll be here, supporting your journey of presence and peace, one breath at a time.
