When you arrive at your meditation or yoga practice, take a seat that allows your spine to be upright yet relaxed. A straight back without rigidity helps the breath flow freely and allows prana to move with ease.
Let your shoulders soften and drop, rest your hands comfortably, and gently close your eyes.
Begin to simply experience the breath, without trying to control it.
Notice the coolness at the nose, the movement at the back of the throat, or the rise and fall of the chest or belly.
Gently lower your chin to create space where the neck meets the head. This helps calm the mind. Soften your facial features and turn your awareness inward.
Breathe in for 6 steady counts, hold for 4, breathe out for 6, and hold again for 4.
With each breath, feel everything you’ve been holding onto slowly dissolve away.
Now divide the breath into three parts:
✨ one third into the belly
✨ one third into the chest
✨ one third into the head
Finally, repeat the mantra OM three times — or any mantra that feels sacred to you. Chanting a mantra helps move the mind away from difficult thoughts and emotions and into a peaceful, grounded space.
🕊️ Take this calm with you into the rest of your day.
