Video: Mindful Breathing Survival Guide
Narrator (audio): sitting comfortably take a big deep breath
in through the nose
out through the mouth
as you breathe in notice how the body expands
as you breathe out notice how the body softens
gently close the eyes or keep a soft focus
notice how the inhale is different from the exhale
notice the cool air as it enters the nose
warm air as it leaves
don’t try to change the breath
observe without judgement
watch the gentle rise and fall of the stomach
with each breath in and out
allow thoughts to come and go…
and when you’re ready gently open the eyes again
