In these uncertain times, full of anxiety and stress, it’s easy to be swept away - caught in the swirling seas of emotional and financial turmoil.
Spending time each day to ground and center yourself will help provide the foundation from which to emerge from quarantine as a butterfly ready to take flight.
Below is a short practice designed to promote a sense of peace and stability.
Find a quiet, comfortable place and take a seated posture in a chair or on the floor.
Place a hand on your belly and a hand on your heart. Spend a moment simply connecting to your heart beat and breath.
Take several deep full breathes feeling both your belly and chest expand on your inhales. Let everything soften on your exhales.
Place your hands palms down on your thighs. Let your arms and shoulders relax. Let your breath soften. Allow your eyes to close.
On your inhale, repeat silently to yourself, “I am safe”. On your exhale, repeat silently to yourself “I am at peace.”
Repeats these affirmations until you feel a sense of calmness and centering.
Know that this practice is available to you anytime you feel overwhelmed or anxious.
