Now, before our episode begins, here's a quick word from today's sponsors.
Hey friend, welcome to Wake Me Up into this guided breathwork session.
Breathwork is a really powerful practice, especially in the morning when you want to wake the mind and body.
It helps to detoxify and energize the body by bringing oxygen to it and removing carbon dioxide.
It has anti-inflammatory effects, and simply put, it will help to reset your mind, both with calmness and energy.
Now it is possible and totally normal to get a little bit lightheaded while you do this.
this, so I recommend that you sit or lie down just to keep yourself safe.
And this practice is very simple. It's 20 deep breaths, followed by a one-minute hold.
And we'll do all of that three times. I'll guide you through the whole thing. So,
let's go ahead and get started. And you can begin by letting out all of the air in your lungs.
Great. Now inhale. And exhale. Inhale. Inhale. Inhale.
And exhale. In and out. Keep it going now. In and out. In and out. In and let it out. Nice and smooth. In and out. Deep breaths all the way. In and out. In half way. In and out. Keep going. In.
and out. In, in. You're almost there now. In, in and out. Just a few more. Stick with it. In. Keep those breaths deep. In. Last one. In and out. Let it all go and hold. Notice your body. You might feel some tingling in your fingers or your toes or other parts of your body.
You might feel a light buzzing, and it's all okay.
Feel your body.
If you're struggling and you need to breathe in, then you can at any time, but you're almost there.
Ten more seconds.
Great.
Now take a nice slow breath in.
Let it out, and let's begin again.
In, in, in.
Keep those breaths deep.
In, out, in, nice and full all the way, in.
You can do it.
In, keep it going.
Just a few more.
In, in all the way.
Let all of your air go, your body and your mind.
Feel what's happening.
Ask yourself, how can I relax deeper into this hold?
If you need to, you can bring.
Breathe, but you're almost there.
Ten more seconds.
And take a nice deep breath in.
Let it out.
And here we go for the final round.
Inhale and exhale.
Inhale.
Keep your breath going.
Exhale.
Don't let it slip away now.
Inhale and exhale.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Let this round be your best.
Inhale, exhale.
Inhale and exhale.
Breathe in, breathe out.
Inhale, exhale.
Inhale, and exhale.
Breathe in deeply.
Breathe out deeply.
Halfway now.
Inhale and exhale.
Inhale.
Inhale and exhale.
Inhale.
You're almost there.
And exhale.
Inhale.
Don't give up now.
Exhale.
Inhale.
You can do this.
Exhale.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Inhale, two more.
Exhale.
Last one.
Inhale.
And exhale.
Let all of your air go.
Your body may feel different.
than usual.
That's okay.
Relax into it.
Soften down.
You have so much oxygen in your body, you don't need to hold your breath.
It's not forced.
It's natural.
If you do need to breathe at any time, of course you can.
But you're almost there.
And if you'd like to extend this hold even longer, feel free to do so.
But if you're going to wrap up with me,
You can go ahead now and take your final recovery breath.
Enjoy it.
Take a nice, slow, deep breath, and let it out on your own time, nice and easy.
Well, my friend, great job.
I hope you're feeling full of positive energy, that your mind is clear, and that you're ready for a great day.
I encourage you to save this episode so that you can come back and repeat this breathwork exercise anytime you'd like.
I personally always find it easier to have someone guide me through it because it removes
the need to do all of the counting and thinking and you just get to focus on the experience.
So I hope that this experience was a good one for you.
