Welcome to this moment for yourself. Find a comfortable position, whether sitting or lying down. Allow your body to settle and feel the support beneath you.

Close your eyes gently, or soften your gaze downward. Take a slow breath in through your nose.

And let it go with a long, easy exhale.

Again, breathe in deeply.

And release.

With each breath, you begin to let go of the day.

Notice any tension you are carrying. Perhaps in your shoulders, your jaw, or your hands. You do not need to fix anything. Simply bring your awareness there.

As you exhale, imagine that tension softening, like ice melting in warm sunlight.

Let the day's worries drift to the background. They will still be there if you need them later. For now, you are allowed to set them down.

Feel your forehead relax. Let your jaw unclench. Allow your tongue to rest easy in your mouth.

Now bring your attention to your shoulders. Gently roll them back and down. Feel them drop away from your ears.

Your arms grow heavy and warm. Your hands rest completely at ease.

Take another slow breath in.

And a long exhale out.

With each breath, you sink a little deeper into calm. The stress of the day loosens its grip. You are here, in this quiet moment, and all is well.

Notice the stillness that lives beneath your thoughts. It has been there all along. You do not have to chase it. Just rest in it now.

If your mind wanders, that is natural. Gently return to your breath.

There is nowhere to be but here. Nothing to do but breathe.

Begin to deepen your breath once more. Feel your body supported and safe.

Carry this calm with you as you go about the rest of your day. The stress has passed through you, and you are lighter now.

When you are ready, gently open your eyes. Take one final, refreshing breath.

And return to your day with a quiet, steady peace.
