Wherever you are, take some moments to adjust your posture.

So you're setting yourself in a way that allows you to feel awake and alert.

There's a quality of sitting or whatever posture you're in upright, alert, and also at ease.

And when you've settled in your position, you might let your body become still and let your attention go inward.

So you become increasingly aware of the inside out of what the experience is right now.

For many that it'll help to close your eyes or let your gaze be downcast.

Be aware of being part of the surf, being connected to the surf, feeling grounded, feeling where your feet contact, the floor,

sense of weight and pressure, the gravitational field of the hug of gravity,

just feel your connection, your belonging, the safety, like as if you're a mountain and just really stable.

And you may become aware of this life breath moving in and out.

Feel the breath.

The breath relaxes with the breath a bit. Let the breath be a way of collecting your attention.

So that as you breathe in, there's an opening to receive.

It's really sensing that you're letting in and being touched by the prana, the life force of this universe.

And with the out breath, there's to letting go, releasing.

As you breathe, you might invite a sense of the smile, the curve of a smile to the lips.

It can be very slight. It has the effect of activating that kind of ease and well-being that's possible.

It calms down, fight, flight freeze.

And you might let it spread into your eyes, so that the corners, the outside corners of the eyes are lifted up some, the eyes are soft.

The brow is smooth.
