Sit in simple cross-legged pose or in any pose where you are comfortable and the energy can flow freely through your body.
Now just close your eyes and be with your breath for a few inhalations and exhalations.
Listen to your body and how you are currently breathing. What does your breath sound like? Is it short and shallow, or fast and choppy or maybe deep and even? Whatever it is, just hear it and feel the sensations in your body as you breathe in and out and in and out.
With your next breath, place one hand on your belly & the other on your solar plexus.
Feel your belly expand and then collapse back toward your spine as you inhale and exhale. Continue to hold you hands where there are as you feel your breath travel in and out of your body bringing nourishing oxygen in and releasing carbon dioxide and other toxins out into the universe.
Now place one hand on your solar plexus and one hand on your heart so that you can further feel your breath going up and down your body as it expands and contracts. Feel your hand move away from your heart as you inhale and then come back closer as you exhale.
Open your heart further by inhaling deeper and exhaling longer. Nourish you body more by allowing your breath and the oxygen it brings with it to fill you and then cleanse your cells by strongly exhaling the toxins from your body.
Now let's take a few moments to visualize blowing bubbles with a large wand as you inhale and exhale. This is a happy and calming memory for many people and it will help you to relax further and breathe more deeply.
Inhale and dip your wand into the bubbles.
Exhale and slowly blow the bubbles out through the wand sending all your worries and stress with them.
On your next couple of inhalations, dip your wand into the bubbles and visualize the clear sparkling soap filled with joy and love--so as you inhale, bring that warm and healing feeling of joy and love into your body and allow it to flow down to your toes and out to your fingers allowing you to relax and slow your body down.
As you exhale, blow any type of anger or frustration, tension or stress that you have carried throughout the day into these wonderful soap bubbles and send them all floating away from you—just release these negative feelings and let them go--making more room for joy, love and warm healing energy in your body.
On your last two inhalations, visualize pushing the wand deep into the soap bubbles and scooping any final feelings of frustration or stress into the wand so that you can blow them all away causing you to blow huge bubbles into the air above you. As you do this, imagine laughing and smiling as you see the bubbles taking your stress far up into the clouds and away from you.
You now feel relaxed and centered and ready to return to your normal functions. Open your eyes and stretch out your arms and legs before getting up.
