Let’s check in :)
Follow along with me:
Take a tiny moment with me and check in here,
When was the last time you checked where your shoulders are?
Are they tense? Riding up near your ears? Stiff? Heavy?
Are you sitting or standing rounded forward?
Could you bring your ribcage over your pelvis and your shoulders to head stacked above that?
What is your jaw doing?
Is it clenched? Tight? Stiff?
Could you give it a little wiggle, some release?
Feel your feet on the floor.
Take a nice big breath.
Can you ease your breath a little bigger, longer,
Can you fill air down into your ribcage and belly?
And let that air sigh and release out.
Taking this tiny moment to check in with yourself, your body,
And send some thank yous to yourself,
For showing up,
For taking this little moment,
For doing what you can do,
And for taking this moment to reset and check in.
The world is whirling, time is slow and fast,
there are endless things on your to do list, to feel list, want to do list,
Things might feel heavy, or funky, or overwhelming, or what is even happening.
Find your little moments of personal health and wellbeing within it all.
Give yourself a moment to sit or stand tall, to release unneeded tension, to be present in this little moment, to finally take a nice big breath.
And to just be here right now.
Tiny moments like this can create powerful resets and revitalizations within your day and week.
Taking a little moment to actually listen and check in with your body and self is powerful.
And all these tiny little things add up into the big change that you make happen.
Start with a little minute here and now.
What did you feel as you followed with today?
