3-Minute Grounding For Overwhelm & Overstimulation

Let yourself arrive where you are, you don't need to change how you feel, just give your system a moment to settle. Finding a position that feels supportive, whether that is sitting or lying down. And when you're ready, let's begin. Notice the surface beneath you, the weight of your body being held, nothing to do, just allowing support. Let your hands rest wherever they naturally fall, jaws soft, shoulders not held up, seeing if with each inhale and exhale they drop a little further and further down. Bring your attention to the contact points of your body, feet, back, hips or wherever you feel the most support. If the mind is busy, that's okay, you're not trying to focus, just noticing contact. Let the breath move in its own rhythm, no need to slow it down, just noticing the body breathing itself. Take a moment to notice if anything feels even slightly more settled. And when you're ready, gently return to your day.
