00:00:08.679 --> 00:00:14.599
Welcome to this meditation for deep relaxation. Whether you've had

2
00:00:14.599 --> 00:00:17.399
a long day or just need a moment to reset,

3
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:21.399
this practice will help you release tension, calm your mind,

4
00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:28.399
and return to a place of peace. Let's begin. Find

5
00:00:28.399 --> 00:00:33.399
a comfortable position, either sitting or lying down. Close your

6
00:00:33.439 --> 00:00:37.479
eyes and let your hands rest gently in your lap

7
00:00:38.119 --> 00:00:42.799
or by your sides. Take a deep breath in through

8
00:00:42.799 --> 00:00:51.320
your nose, hold it for a moment, and now release

9
00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:57.960
it slowly through your mouth. Let's do that again. Take

10
00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:07.040
a deep breath in. Feel your lungs expand, and as

11
00:01:07.079 --> 00:01:10.719
you exhale, imagine letting go of any stress or tension

12
00:01:10.760 --> 00:01:22.040
you've been carrying. My more time, deep breath in and out.

13
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:30.840
Now bring your awareness to the top of your head.

14
00:01:36.680 --> 00:01:44.079
Imagine a warm, soothing light gently touching your scalp. This

15
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:50.840
light is the most beautiful, most relaxing light you've ever seen,

16
00:01:52.719 --> 00:01:56.480
and as it begins to flow down anywhere this light

17
00:01:56.560 --> 00:02:12.680
touches tension releases from your body. Feel the light moving

18
00:02:12.719 --> 00:02:16.919
to your forehead, releasing any tension in your forehead your

19
00:02:16.919 --> 00:02:24.479
temples continues down to your jaw that your mouth falls

20
00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:32.280
softly open, allowing any tightness to melt. Away. Feel the

21
00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:40.719
warm light moving down your neck in your shoulders. Now

22
00:02:40.759 --> 00:02:47.159
your neck and shoulders are completely relaxed. Notice how your

23
00:02:47.159 --> 00:02:51.199
shoulders begin to drop or relax, as if a heavy

24
00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:58.800
weight has been lifted. Allow the light to flow down

25
00:02:58.840 --> 00:03:07.800
your arms, through your elbows, wrists, all the way to

26
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:14.800
the tips of your fingers. Now your arms are completely relaxed.

27
00:03:19.159 --> 00:03:23.000
Bring your attention to the light touching your chest. Now

28
00:03:23.039 --> 00:03:26.719
with each breath, feel the light filling your heart space,

29
00:03:27.960 --> 00:03:34.919
expanding warmth and calm throughout your upper body. That it

30
00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:41.840
flow down into your stomach, releasing any tightness or tension there.

31
00:03:42.879 --> 00:03:48.919
And now your upper body is completely relaxed. From head

32
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:57.199
to your waist. The soothing light continues to flow down,

33
00:03:57.560 --> 00:04:09.000
moving into your hips, in your thighs and knees. Feel

34
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:15.599
it releasing any heaviness or discomfort in your legs. Let

35
00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:23.800
it travel down through your calves, your ankles, and finally

36
00:04:23.879 --> 00:04:27.360
to the soles of your feet, grounding you in this

37
00:04:27.560 --> 00:04:35.879
moment of peace. Your entire body is now bathed in

38
00:04:35.879 --> 00:04:42.360
this warm, relaxing light. Feel how deeply calm and supported

39
00:04:42.439 --> 00:04:49.920
you are in this moment. That's Deepen this relaxation by

40
00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:54.800
focusing on your breath. Take a slow inhale through your

41
00:04:54.839 --> 00:05:03.399
nose with a count of four, two three four, Hold

42
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:07.600
it for a moment, and exhale to the count of

43
00:05:07.720 --> 00:05:16.759
six two three, four, five six. Let's do that again.

44
00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:28.279
Inhale two three four, hold it and exhale two three

45
00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:36.199
four five six. Feel your body sink deeper with each outbreath,

46
00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:49.079
deeper into relaxation. With each inhalation. Imagine your body expanding,

47
00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:59.279
and with each exhalation, feel yourself getting deeper and deeper

48
00:05:59.319 --> 00:06:04.120
into relacation. Every outbreath brings you closer and closer to

49
00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:17.040
total relaxation. Whenever you're ready, return your breath to normal

50
00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:22.560
and now, imagine yourself in a place that feels deeply

51
00:06:22.959 --> 00:06:27.519
peaceful and safe. This could be a quiet beach, a

52
00:06:27.639 --> 00:06:31.040
serene forest, or even a cozy spot in your home.

53
00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:40.079
Picture yourself there, surrounded by calm and beauty. Feel the textures,

54
00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:45.800
smell the sense, and hear the sounds of this beautiful place.

55
00:06:52.079 --> 00:06:56.920
Allow yourself to simply be here, fully present, and completely

56
00:06:57.360 --> 00:07:09.639
at ease. In this safe space, there is nothing you

57
00:07:09.720 --> 00:07:17.800
need to do, no expectations, no worries, just you, your

58
00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:37.040
breath and this moment. Know that you can return to

59
00:07:37.120 --> 00:07:41.199
this feeling of relaxation and peace whenever you need to.

60
00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:50.759
When you're ready, bring your awareness back to your body.

61
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:59.040
Feel the surface beneath you, the gentle rhythm of your breath,

62
00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:08.199
and the calm within you. Slowly begin to wiggle your

63
00:08:08.199 --> 00:08:15.759
fingers and toes, stretch gently if you feel good. When

64
00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:21.639
you're ready, open your eyes. Take a moment to notice

65
00:08:21.800 --> 00:08:27.000
how relaxed and refreshed you feel. Thank you for taking

66
00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:32.360
this time for yourself. Until next time, take care and

67
00:08:32.480 --> 00:08:32.960
be well.
