Good evening and welcome to the sleepy book shelf,

where we put down our worries from the day and pick up a good book.

I'm Elizabeth, your host, and it's always wonderful to be with you.

Tonight we are continuing with thelet.

First let's focus on calming our minds and bodies.

Take a few deep breaths in your own time

before finding a natural relaxed rhythm of breathing. Where do you notice that breath the most?

How does it feel as the cool air comes in through your nose and notice the slightly warmer

air sweeping out.

Where does your body rise and fall?

See if you can focus on sending your breath to any one part of your body at a time.

Perhaps an area that requires a little more relaxation today.

Rest your attention there.

Feeling the muscles relax.

And each time your mind wanders,

just bring it back to your breath.

Now you can focus on the sound of my voice

as I recap our last episode.
