Oasis breathing practice. This relaxed awareness exercise can be practiced either sitting or lying down.

Please pause this

record if you need a few moments to get yourself ready to enter into this guided relaxation

as comfortably as you can. Bring your

awareness to the front of your body,

from your hips to your chest.

And pay careful attention to this area as you breathe.

Tune into the movements of your muscles, your ribs, your stomach, and your sides. and notice how they move as you breathe. Notice how your abdomen expands and opens to receive each incoming breath and how it sinks back and settles and how it sinks back and settles as each breath leaves your body.

Now allow your breath to slow and deepen slightly.

And watch as your body expands more to accommodate that deeper breath.

Feel your stomach expand and accept your breath.

Feel your sides expand. and accept your breath.

Feel your sides expand and accommodate your breath.

As you relax more deeply now and become fully focused on this simple act of steady, restful breathing. Can you feel if your breathing is fully relaxed?

Try tensing your stomach and holding your breath fully in a long and slow exhalation,

emptying your lungs completely.

Now pause for a moment and breathe in again with full concentration. Let the air flow freely into your body. Imagine your body

greeting the breath, welcoming it in, expanding to allow its space to enter, to fill your lungs and nourish you.

Now again, hold the breath.

Tense your stomach.
