Imagine yourself in a peaceful, safe place. With each breath, feel your body relax, starting from your toes, up to the top of your head. Let go of any tension, worries, or stress.
Deepening
“As you continue to breathe deeply, imagine yourself descending a staircase, with each step taking you deeper into relaxation. With each step, feel yourself becoming more calm, more centered, and more focused.
