00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:12,439
Speaker 1: Join me here as we pause to let go of

2
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:17,039
the things we are clinging to, perhaps a bit too Tightly,

3
00:00:19,839 --> 00:00:24,960
find a position of comfort and allow yourself to relax

4
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:31,879
into the moment. As we begin, take a slow breath

5
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:40,520
in and exhale with a soft audible sigh, letting the

6
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:50,240
body announce that it's safe to release again. Inhale, quietly,

7
00:00:52,439 --> 00:00:57,039
letting the air out. As you feel your shoulders drop

8
00:00:57,119 --> 00:01:04,359
away from your ears. Bring to mind one thing that

9
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:10,480
you are ready to let go of. It might be

10
00:01:10,519 --> 00:01:20,519
a memory, a resentment, an old identity, or maybe today's tension.

11
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:28,840
See it resting in your open palm, like a small

12
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:36,159
stone you've carried far too long. With your next breath,

13
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:42,439
silently say I see you, thank you for what you've

14
00:01:42,439 --> 00:01:49,439
taught me. And with your next breath, I release you

15
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:58,799
with love one more time, softer inhale, I see you,

16
00:01:59,719 --> 00:02:05,280
thank you, thank you, and exhale I release you with love.

17
00:02:08,319 --> 00:02:15,159
Now Picture the stone gently dissolving into tiny particles of

18
00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:24,000
light on your palm. On your next exhale, tip your

19
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:29,520
hand slightly and let the light drift down through the

20
00:02:29,599 --> 00:02:36,639
floor into the earth, where it is transformed and no

21
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:47,199
longer yours to carry. Feel your palm grow lighter, feel

22
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:55,319
your chest widen, feel your whole body breathe a little deeper.

23
00:02:58,759 --> 00:03:06,240
Remain here for two or three quiet breaths, noticing the

24
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:19,800
new space inside you. Open calm, ready for whatever arrives next.

25
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:30,080
When you feel complete, take one final breath of gratitude,

26
00:03:30,479 --> 00:03:41,400
exhaling out a long, easy breath of relief. You did it.

27
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:49,000
You put something down, and you should give yourself a

28
00:03:49,039 --> 00:03:54,879
lot of credit for that. You remain here and whole,

29
00:03:55,919 --> 00:04:04,800
and hopefully a little lighter. Thank you for this brave

30
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:10,479
act of release. Take this feeling with you as you

31
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:15,840
move forward in your day. No must day
