relaxed.

Also alert. let yourself settle, turning the attention inward and just noticing the life of the moment. Closing your eyes. And taking these first few moments

will be breathing together, a long deep breath, inhaling slowly and deeply,

filling the lungs. And that's slow out breath where you actually feel a letting go or releasing.

And again, a nice full deep in-breath, filling the chest and lungs. A slow out breath letting go, letting go.

And again, inhaling deeply. With the out-breath sense that you can release tension, softening down the length of your body, letting go, letting go.

And again, inhaling deeply. Slow, even out breath, slow, even out breath, releasing, letting go.

And now as the breath resumes in its natural rhythm, just sense that you can observe the breath.

Observe the body and sense a growing presence that's right here in this body is a way of deepening, letting go.

You might bring the attention to the brow,

and let the brow be smooth softening the eyes.

Sensing with the out breath that you can let go of any tightness or tension you might behold him.

Letting the jaw be unhinged, slight smile at the lips.

Feeling all the little micro muscles around the face softening so that with each out breath now

There's a sense of releasing

Tension in the neck.

Letting the awareness fill the shoulders.

So that with each out breath you continue to sense a kind of letting go,

a softening, a loosening, a very easy and effortless way.
