Remember
Your body is your FRIEND – just trying to help
It is not an enemy trying to cause you harm
it has stood by you for years now looking out for you
feel some kindness towards it
it’s all just a big mistake
lots of mistaken cycles – a false alarm
you are frightened – your friendly body rushes to your rescue
but that causes you to be frightened and so on –
oh dear – poor body got it wrong trying to help
be kind to it – be gentle towards it
stop sending your body so much dislike
it’s just trying to help – just responding to a false alarm
nothing actually wrong
all is well
smile to your body – send it happy vibes – forgive it
be gentle towards it
tell it all is well – really – all is well
thank you body for trying to help – you can relax now – all is ok
no danger – we are ok – look around – it’s just a room
it takes time to settle – adrenaline slowing
let go – it will settle in it’s own time – give it time
stop holding onto the body like it’s about to fall apart
let it all hang out
just go bleaugh
all is well
even if you held your body REALLY tight and tried to stress yourself up
nothing would happen
there’s nothing wrong
just a mistake
a cycle
let go of your stomach – SMILE – a BIG one 🙂
shoulders drop – feet on floor
let go all over like a sponge
and then look – listen – focus out – ignore the rumblings
get on with your day
let the movie run
it’s just a movie – no real substance
no danger – just adrenaline
let go
look at these words as words – letters – language –
look at the space between the words
look at the screen – there is more to you than panic or jitters
there is room – sound – body – smell – touch – light – shapes – space –
silence – noise
rest in that – take a deep breath – smiles – all is well 🙂
