Recenter with Ocean Breath: A Calming Moment of Mindfulness

  • Résumé

  • Hey there, welcome to Mindful Moments. I'm so glad you've carved out this little space for yourself today. I know mornings can feel overwhelming - maybe you're juggling work pressures, personal commitments, or just the general background noise of life that seems to be buzzing a bit louder lately.

    Today, I want to invite you into a gentle breathing practice that'll help you reset and find some inner calm. Find a comfortable position - whether you're sitting, standing, or even lying down. Let your body settle and your shoulders soften.

    Close your eyes if that feels comfortable. Take a deep breath in through your nose, allowing your belly to expand like a soft balloon filling with warm air. Then exhale slowly through your mouth, releasing any tension you've been carrying. Imagine each breath is like a wave, washing away the mental clutter and bringing you back to this present moment.

    Now, let's explore what I call the "Ocean Breath" technique. Breathe in deeply for a count of four - imagine you're drawing in pure, clear energy. Hold for a gentle pause, then release for six counts, like waves slowly retreating from the shore. Each breath is a miniature journey of coming home to yourself.

    As thoughts drift through your mind - and they will - simply notice them without judgment. Think of your thoughts like clouds passing across a vast sky. They move, they change, but the sky remains unchanged. You're not trying to stop thinking, just observe without getting tangled up.

    Continue this rhythmic breathing. Feel how each inhale brings renewal, each exhale offers release. Your body knows exactly how to breathe - you're just bringing kind awareness to its natural rhythm.

    As we come to a close, take one more deep, intentional breath. Set an intention to carry this sense of calm with you. Maybe it's a gentle reminder to pause and breathe when things feel intense today.

    Thank you for showing up for yourself in this moment. If this practice resonated with you, please subscribe to Mindful Moments. We're here every day, offering simple, powerful ways to find your center. Wishing you peace and presence.
