Does your tummy feel tight and contracted?
Here is a simple exercise to try when you are feeling anxious, stressed or have an over active mind. It can also be practiced in a chair using the arms of the chair.
Sit upright, with a soft tummy.
Gently lengthen the spine and open the chest.
Inhale slowly with an abdominal breath feeling the whole spine lengthening and the ribs expanding sideways.
Take your awareness to the solar plexus (between the ribs). Imagine this space filling with warmth, self acceptance and love.
Hold the breath briefly and soften. Allow lifelong tensions and concerns to melt. Feel your whole body soften.
Exhale and gently rotate into a seated twist.
Place your right hand behind you and your left hand on your right knee.
Keep your spine long and the twist gentle.
For five slow breaths, sense the warmth of self-love and acceptance dissolving old tension and welcoming new flow.
When ready, repeat on the opposite side.
