Hey there , today's meditation is an invitation to slow down , to just simply take a moment , to reconnect with your breath , to your heart center , to your values , to your heart center , to your values , to your why and to what's really important right now . And the only way that we can connect to these things sometimes is to slow down and take account , take inventory , take your time , give yourself grace . Sometimes , three deep breaths are all it takes to soften the tension of a stressful moment or an unwanted thought . Take a moment just to get comfortable , so you can focus just for a few minutes , just for a few moments , on your breath . Begin by taking a deep breath in and holding it for five seconds . As you exhale , feel yourself beginning to relax . Take another deep breath , as deeply as you now and hold it , and as you exhale , you simply blow out any stress , any thoughts , any unwanted energy that you've been holding on to saying to yourself relax now .
Speaker 1Take a moment to connect to your five senses , beginning your awareness around anything that you might smell , don't assign any meaning , and exhale , blowing out any excess thoughts , thoughts On your next inhale . I want you to draw your awareness around your ability to listen and I want you to focus this inward , to listen to any residual sounds , feelings of stress that are coming from within you and , on the exhale , simply let them go . Now we're going to draw your awareness around your sense of taste and I want you to conjure something that has delighted your taste buds . Start to feel yourself open to the idea that you might even salivate when you think about it . In any case , simply draw your awareness around something delicious and , on your next exhale , simply rest into the feeling that you get after you've eaten something delicious and it's satisfied your hunger .
Speaker 1Ah , on your next inhale , I want you to draw awareness around your sense of touch .
Speaker 1I want you to draw your awareness around any area that you can feel on your body that might like a gentle reminder to release and go ahead and put your hand , exhale , simply breathe away any of the stress or tension or pain in this area . Now , still staying with a sense of touch , I want you to feel your body supported by the surface on which you stand or lie and feel a sense of gratitude and trust . You might feel a tingling sensation that's coming from this deep breathing we've been doing in your blood , beginning to circulate and support your systems to operate efficiently . So , congratulations , you're re-energizing yourself . And finally , I want you to take a deep breath in and hold , and as you exhale , I want you to slowly open your eyes and maybe smile , maybe roll your shoulders or reach to the sky whatever feels right to you and then bring your palms together , maybe rub them and create some fire , play around with the energy between your two hands and then bring them together again in balance . This has been your reset . Well done , namaste .
