So dear friends, dear listeners, let us give ourselves the space and time to practice mindful breathing together.
So if you are sitting on a bus, on a train, in your car, or going for a walk, going for a jog, or cleaning your house,
wherever you may be, if you can allow yourself just a few minutes to be still, you can remain standing.
Or you can just sit down on a bench with two feet on the ground, our back upright, but not rigid.
Our shoulders relax and now allow ourselves to be in touch with the inbreath.
And called the inbreath by its name.
Hello inbreath.
And recognize the outbreath.
Called outbreath as its name.
Hello my outbreath.
and just be aware of the inbreath and aware of the outbreath.
If the breath is short, enjoy a short breath.
If the breath is long,
enjoy a long breath.
Breathing in.
I'm aware this is an inbreath.
Breathing out.
I am aware that this is my outbreath.
Inbreath.
Outbreath.
In touch with the breath.
I feel life inside of me.
In touch with the breath.
I also feel life all around me.
The trees, the sun, the cloud, the trees, the flowers, the hums of life all around me.
Life is present.
And I am present with life.
Breathing in.
My breath grows deeper.
Breathing out.
My breath grows slower.
In, deep.
Out, slow.
Whatever worries I have, I can release with my breath, allowing myself to be in the present moment.
In, deep.
Out, slow.
I am present with my body.
I am present in the very moment.
Breathing in.
I get in touch with my whole body.
From my head, my face.
My shoulders.
My upper body, my lower body.
If there's any tension, I release the tension with my breath,
allowing myself to sink deeper into my body, into the present moment.
In.
And out.
Breathing in.
I am in touch with the nature of emptiness inside of me.
I am a manifestation of all the conditions.
My ancestors, spiritual and blood.
The whole universe, the cosmos, nature, everything that is around me is also present in me.
Breathing out.
I am free from all.
In, I am in touch with emptiness.
Out, I am one with emptiness.
I am the nature of Interbeing.
Breathing in.
I recognize myself in this moment.
Breathing out.
I am free from all thoughts of what I am, who I am.
I am a wonderful manifestation.
I am free from all sides.
And I am free to also grow, each day, each moment.
Breathing in and out.
Breathing in.
I allow myself to be here, not running after the future.
Breathing out, I enjoy this present moment.
I enjoy this process.
In, not running after.
Out, I am grounded.
Breathing in and out.
Breathing in.
You are beautiful.
You are kindness. You are compassion.
Breathing out, how wonderful to have all these elements inside of me.
In, life inside of me.
Out, life all around me.
