Get ready to just make yourself comfortable and shut your eyes now…
let your hands lie loosely in your lap… or at your side if that’s easier… just be comfortable and relax your entire body as much as you are able to…
now I want you to take a deep breath and hold it for a minute before exhaling slowly… just letting your whole body relax as you do … and I want you to keep your eyes shut now and just keep listening restfully to the sound of my voice…
and as you’re listening to the sound of my voice, I want you to center for a moment on your breathing… breathing slowly and steady and evenly… and as you exhale each time, just letting your whole body relax more and more…
so that you gradually find yourself feeling like your whole body was settling further and further into the chair with each breath you breathe…
