1
00:00:02,040 --> 00:00:07,400
Speaker 1: Welcome in. If you arrived here, you may have unresolved

2
00:00:07,400 --> 00:00:12,800
emotions from a challenging interaction. I want to begin by

3
00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:19,320
reminding you that moment of difficulty is over. Now. Your

4
00:00:19,359 --> 00:00:25,519
mind might still be here replaying parts of it, rethinking

5
00:00:25,559 --> 00:00:31,760
what you said, or wishing it had gone differently before

6
00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:38,280
anything else. Only notice that no need to stop it

7
00:00:38,399 --> 00:00:44,759
right away. You are here now and for the next

8
00:00:45,119 --> 00:00:51,960
few minutes. You don't need to figure anything out. Let's

9
00:00:52,079 --> 00:00:57,320
begin with your breath. Take a slow inhale through your

10
00:00:57,399 --> 00:01:07,120
nose and a gentle exhale through your mouth. Let's do

11
00:01:07,239 --> 00:01:19,239
that one more time. Breathe in and breathe out. Let

12
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:30,599
your shoulders drop, unclench your jaw, if you can soften

13
00:01:30,719 --> 00:01:38,480
your hands. Your body may still be holding onto that moment,

14
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:46,000
and that's okay. It only needs a little time to settle.

15
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:56,040
Now bring your awareness to wherever the tension feels strongest.

16
00:01:59,239 --> 00:02:11,879
It might be your test, your belly, your throat. Instead

17
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:17,159
of trying to release it all at once, just allow

18
00:02:17,199 --> 00:02:24,840
a little space around it. Imagine your breath moving into

19
00:02:24,879 --> 00:02:36,240
that space, softening it, loosening it. You don't need to

20
00:02:36,479 --> 00:02:41,680
resolve the conversation right now. You don't need to replay

21
00:02:41,719 --> 00:02:48,520
it perfectly. You don't need to keep replaying it in

22
00:02:48,599 --> 00:02:57,599
your mind. Gently remind yourself it's okay that it wasn't perfect.

23
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,960
I showed up the best I could in that moment.

24
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:13,639
I can let this rest for now. Let those words

25
00:03:14,039 --> 00:03:20,080
land without forcing them to feel true, Just let them

26
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:30,159
be there. Now, come back to your breath. Take another

27
00:03:30,599 --> 00:03:40,000
intentional breath in and let it out gently. If your

28
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:45,759
mind tries to pull you back in, only notice it

29
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:57,599
and gently return here again and again. Now, notice where

30
00:03:57,639 --> 00:04:05,360
you are, the room around you, the surface supporting you,

31
00:04:07,879 --> 00:04:14,960
the feeling of being here in this moment. Nothing from

32
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:22,399
that earlier conversation is happening right now, Right now, you

33
00:04:22,519 --> 00:04:29,720
are safe to pause. Take one more slow breath in

34
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:38,759
and a long, steady breath out, and when you're ready,

35
00:04:40,199 --> 00:04:45,519
return to your day with a little more space and

36
00:04:45,639 --> 00:04:51,319
a little more peace. No mustay
