Take a nice long deep breath right now as a way of collecting the attention, inhaling

and filling the lungs.

And then let the out breath be slow enough that you can sense a kind of releasing, a letting

go.

And again another long deep in breath.

And with the out breath sensing that you can let go and relax any unnecessary tension

or tightness, let go, let go.

One more time, a nice full and breath.

And then a slow, even out breath, releasing and letting go.

Then as your breath now resumes in its natural rhythm, feel the quality of presence that's

right here.

And sense a quality of heart presence, feeling your intention for the meditation, the intention

to be here with your senses awake and touch with the liveliness.

And feeling this body breathing, we begin to scan down the body to increase that sense

of refuge and presence.

You might soften the eyes, let the brow be smooth, and feel the liveliness in that region

of the eyes, a receptive presence to what's right here.

You might bring a slight smile to the lips and then feeling the inside of the mouth, letting

the tongue fill the lower palate.

And then relaxing down to the root of the tongue.
