Ground & Center

A five-minute breath practice designed to help you arrive fully in your body before important moments.

Preparation

Find a comfortable seated position. Close your eyes or soften your gaze. Place your hands on your knees or in your lap.

The Practice

  1. Take three deep breaths, inhaling through your nose and exhaling through your mouth.
  2. Notice where your body makes contact with the ground or chair.
  3. Bring your attention to your breath without changing it.
  4. On each exhale, imagine releasing any tension or anticipation.
  5. On each inhale, imagine drawing in calm and presence.
  6. Continue for 3-5 minutes, or until you feel grounded and centered.

Closing

Slowly open your eyes. Take one more deep breath. Notice how you feel now compared to when you started.
