Soft Belly Breathing To Invite In Calm

Here’s a Sample of the “Soft Belly Breathing To Invite In Calm” Guided Meditation Script:

So, to reduce anxiety,
start by taking a moment to loosen up your body..
soften any unnecessary tension in your belly and shoulder,
and discover a posture that feels each relaxed and alert.

Now close your eyes
or look downwards
and rest your hands
in an easy effortless way.

Take just a number of moments
to scan your awareness
through the sensations of your body,
and wherever possible,
soften and release
obvious areas of physical tension.

Relax your breath,
and breathe in through your nose
and out through your mouth.
This may be just slightly unfamiliar,
but when done is a natural, easy going way,
it could be a extremely relaxing choice to breathe.

In through your nose
and out through your mouth.

Now let your belly be soft.
If the belly is soft,
more oxygen goes to the underside of the lungs.

There’s higher oxygen exchange.

Oxygen moves more easily into the blood,
and it goes to the entire cells throughout the body,
including the cells throughout the brain,
supplying your brain with the nourishment it needs.

If the belly is soft,
it helps to activate the vagus nerve.

Vagus means wandering,
and this nerve wanders up
through the abdomen and chest,
back to the central nervous system throughout the brain,
and it promotes rest.

It is an antidote
to the fight or flight stress response.
