Guided Meditation for Busy Mums
Find a quiet and comfortable space where you can sit or lie down, free from distractions. Close your eyes gently and take a deep breath in, filling your lungs with fresh air.
Exhale slowly, releasing any tension or stress you may be holding onto.
Now, bring your awareness to your body. Notice any areas of tightness or discomfort, and allow them to soften with each breath.
Feel the support of the ground beneath you, grounding and anchoring you in this present moment.
As you continue to breathe deeply and rhythmically, imagine a warm and soothing light surrounding you.
This light is your source of calmness and peace, gently enveloping you in its embrace.
Visualize yourself in a serene natural setting, perhaps by a tranquil lake or in a peaceful garden.
Feel the gentle breeze against your skin and the warmth of the sun on your face.
With each inhale, imagine breathing in relaxation and tranquility.
With each exhale, release any worries or concerns that may be weighing on your mind.
Allow yourself to fully let go and surrender to this moment of stillness.
Now, bring your attention to your breath. Notice the sensation of air flowing in and out of your nostrils.
Feel the rise and fall of your chest with each inhale and exhale.
As thoughts or distractions arise, simply acknowledge them without judgment and gently guide your focus back to your breath.
You are here, in this moment, fully present and aware.
Take a few more deep breaths, feeling a sense of peace and contentment washing over you. Know that you can return to this place of calmness and relaxation whenever you need it.
When you're ready, slowly begin to bring awareness back to your surroundings.
Wiggle your fingers and toes, and gently open your eyes. Take a moment to thank yourself for taking this time to nourish your mind, body, and spirit.
