With your eyes gently closed begin to take your awareness inwards, focusing on your breath the inhalation and the exhalation…a conscious flow inhalation and a conscious flow exhalation. Invite yourself to focus simply on your breathing. If your mind wanders off just bring it back to your breath. Our mind can wander off and without judgment just bring it back and watch your breathing. Feel your breath. Feeling air going in through your nostrils and as you breathe out air leaving your nostrils and going through all the tiny hairs of your upper lip. Allow yourself to be particularly aware of your breath in and your breath out.

Mastery Practice Tool
1. Observe your mind.
2. Acknowledge the thought you are currently running.
3. What you focus on expands: choose to shift to "happy expectancy".
4. Allow for a deep letting go breath. In doing this you are releasing the old and making space for a habit of focus that supports you.
5. Invite yourself to feel happy expectancy in your body.
6. Smile.
Testimonial
Bev's Laughing and Breathing Belly Workshop for Children was one of the best I have attended. She has a gifted ability to gently connect with children and teach and share with them her techniques of belly breathing, rooting, mind vacations and laughter. These techniques soothe and calm them whenever they feel overwhelmed or anxious - be at school, home or before bed time. Whether you have an overwhelmed pre-schooler or a test-anxious pre-teen, Bev's approach works! I love that she gave parents the tools to model and share these fundamentals of meditation with their children. I would encourage families to take her course...your children will thank you and you will benefit from ways to keep yourself calm and allow wisdom in.
