Begin by finding a posture that feels comfortable for you today,

whether that's sitting up in a chair with both feet firmly planted on the floor

or lying all the way down.

Once you've found a comfortable position,

start by taking a deep breath in

and exhaling, filling the lungs with air, and sighing everything out, continuing to breathe in and out in whatever way feels natural for you today. The

The Feeling your body relax a little more deeply with each breath.

Allowing your jaw to hang loose,

feeling your shoulders drop away from your ears,

and feeling the weight of your body grow heavier with each exhale. Focusing fully on the breath and the body has a memory for emotions.

We know what joy feels like.

We know what grief feels like.

And now, using your breath to tune into the rest of the body. Try and identify where any extra energy is living

in your body today. Perhaps it's in your gut, your throat, or chest. Not judging it, not trying to label it just yet, simply noticing

where the emotional energy is collecting in this moment. Thank you. And as you tune in to the frequency of whatever emotion you have in your body today, notice whether there's any connection between the spots where you tend to store your emotional energy

and any places in your body that frequently experience pain or discomfort.

We're simply trying to notice what is present right now. Thank you. A lot of emotional processing happens in the body, and the brain can play an active role in speeding that up simply by labeling the emotion.

You can move it from the unconscious part of your mind into the rational brain.

Start to become more aware of it. start to notice when it resurfaces and what it

reminds you of. So now, take a minute to label this emotion as closely as you can,

knowing that there's no right or wrong answer.
