Use Breath As Your Anchor
- Breathe into the heart area and lengthen the in-breath to collect attention and stabilize presence.
- Relax the out-breath slowly and let the breath return to its natural rhythm to settle the body and mind.
Relax Key Tension Points
- Scan the body and consciously relax tense areas like the jaw, brow, and shoulders.
- Soften the hands and face to signal the nervous system to ease fight-or-flight responses.
Sense From The Inside Out
- Feel sensation from the inside out to deepen intimate awareness of hands, heart, belly, and pelvis.
- This inward attention reveals subtle aliveness and supports receptive presence.
