Hi and welcome back Let's slow down together There's nothing to do perfectly here No right or wrong way to settle You're just arriving Like a leaf Drifting gently to the surface of calm pond You So take a slow inhale and a long the easy exhale, please Feel your body being supported where it rests Let your breath be easy no effort required Let yourself notice one small place in your body that might Be allowed to feel even 1% of 1% lighter or softer Let yourself know that even a tiny shift is still a shift You Let your awareness linger there Like noticing the subtle shimmer of morning light across a room There's nothing to fix right now Nothing to force Just arriving here You Now imagine a gentle warmth like sunlight Filtering through your skin Or the calm pressure of soft sand beneath your hands You Can move like gentle waves Drift like a cloud Or settle like a quiet glow Whatever feels right for you You This warmth represents the safety of right now Let it move slowly through your body From your head All the way down Through to your fingers and toes Notice how your body responds to this gentle caring presence If your mind drifts, that's okay Every time your attention returns It allows your nervous system to learn and change Deep in your nervous system The areas that store that habit of tension The muscle memory The muscle memory, circuits, fascia The brain's safety networks Are all noticing this calm They're loosening Reorganizing And learning that not every signal requires bracing You don't have to feel it consciously Your body is already doing the work And when old habitual tension releases Just like you're doing now Your brain and nervous system can rewrite patterns That previously signaled pain Making comfort the new default Now Slowly bring attention to any tiny movements That might want to happen in your body A gentle wiggle of your fingers or toes A soft roll of the shoulders A subtle stretch of the spine Notice without forcing anything These small movements Small releases Small shifts If tension appears Acknowledge it If pain is present Allow it for the moment Let it know, I see you I understand But you might not be necessary anymore And if any of this Doesn't feel entirely your way Doesn't feel entirely yours It may be inherited Patterns passed down through your family But you don't have to carry what isn't useful anymore You don't need that They don't want that for you Now we're going to shift the old imprint Of habitual tension and guarding The reflex to tighten Brace Hold your muscles Automatically Constantly Consistently Before the nap round You can repeat after me out loud Or just in your mind Or just let the information flow over and through you There is no wrong way to do this Nice deep breath breathe I acknowledge this feeling of holding Of holding Of bracing in my body I accept this belief and idea That I need to be tense to stay safe And that makes sense Because my body was trying to protect me It thought it needed to do this To survive Stay safe Stay sane Because in my life Or in my lineage I learned, others learned To hold the body tightly Because hard experiences Were often unpredictable Or sudden Muscles stayed ready for action Because danger sometimes came quickly Or responsibilities were heavy For long periods of time People got hurt Left Or lost things that mattered Change happened but they didn't want So staying tense felt necessary I'm allowed to change this agreement I'm allowed to change this agreement Now Because that was to protect me And protection evolves To suit what's needed now Not before So I'm going to allow myself to be fully aware Of everything truly useful About this holding and tension And how it's contributing to this pain Get all the good I can get from it And let the rest drop away and disappear now And nice deep breath please And when you're ready You can allow yourself to step into your new agreement Repeat after me Or just allow the information To flow through you and settle in Nice deep breath please Nice deep breath please I allow myself to be fully aware Of my new agreement now I know that if the threat is gone The muscle can relax The body can rest without consequences The pain can be released I allow that my system can move and rest Without overreacting I can notice sensations without bracing I can feel without being overwhelmed It is safe for my body to release tension It is safe for my body to release pain Anything that's not present time Anything that's not present time Anything inherited Is allowed to be released now And I only keep What supports my healing and well-being Rest is allowed Ease is allowed Safety and release of pain Are allowed And I let myself have this new agreement In every cell Every memory Every piece of DNA I allow myself to know this Hear it Feel it And act on it Starting now And nice deep breath please
