The Majestic Slow Tortoise.

Welcome, I'm Lauren.

Before we start, find a comfortable position either lying down or seated and gently close

your eyes notice your breathing without attachment.

It doesn't matter how you breathe. Just notice.

Be the observer of your breath.

Be the noticer of self.

Come into this space and just be as you are.

When you're ready, when you're comfortable, let's begin. Sit down or lie down

comfortably and we will begin. Take a breath.

Breathe in and release that breath.

Feel your body beginning to relax,

knowing, being aware that relaxation is a process, an organic process that's different in each moment. And that's okay. Right now, accept the process you are having.

No matter what is occurring around you.

Accept this moment for what it is.

Let the weight of the day drift, drift away.

As you prepare to journey into a tranquil forest, a green forest.

In this forest is a tortoise, a majestic, beautiful tortoise.

Picture this space, the forest, the greenery, the bushes, the

bushes, the flowers, the path, and then there is the tortoise.

Upon the bracken path steps a tortoise.

Slowly, deliberately, carefully.
