Find a quiet space.
Get into a comfortable position either sitting or lying down.
Close your eyes.
Silence your mind.
Focus on your breath. Breathe in deeply, hold it, then exhale slowly.
Now direct your awareness to your body.
Release any tension in your muscles.
Relax your hands, arms, legs, and feet.
For a moment, allow yourself to let go of all your worries.
Imagine yourself in a safe space.
What does this space look like?
Enjoy the stillness and peace in this space.
Keep your mind clear. If your thoughts start to wander, focus on your breathing.
Focus on what you see, hear, smell, touch, or taste in your imagined space.
Now bring your attention back to your body.
Take a deep breath, hold it, then exhale slowly.
Open your eyes when you are ready.
