Take some moments to feel as you come into stillness, this body breathing.

And you might ask yourself what wants to let go right now, sensing the possibility of

releasing any unnecessary tension or tightness.

As a way of deepening presence to scan through the body, relaxing, letting go.

You might soften the eyes, let the brow be smooth.

It's helpful to bring a slight smile to the mouth.

And just feel the mouth from the inside out, the tingling, vibrating.

Getting the awareness spread through the face, letting the features, be it ease, scalp

and skull feeling tingling, vibrating, aliveness.

You might let your shoulders relax back and down some.

And take some more time if you haven't already to feel the shoulders to the inside out,

perhaps sensing a dissolving, a melting ice to water and water to gas.

Let the hands rest in an easy, effortless way, softening the hands.

And feeling from the inside out, the aliveness, such there.

Let there be an openness to the chest.

Feeling with the movement of the breath that you can contact the aliveness inside, feeling

the region of the heart.

And if it helps to smile into the heart, the feel a sense of a smile spreading through

the heart and the chest to make a room for what's here.

Letting this next breath be received in a softening belly.
