to your breath, drawing your breath down into your belly.

Bringing your attention to any pain in the body with
the intention of observing it, to get an understanding of it,

(01:45):
where it is, how big or small it is, the
space it takes off, if and where it refers. To

(02:14):
understand that it is telling you something meaningful, sending you
a message. Thank your body for bringing this to your attention.

(02:40):
Accept the pain for what it is, letting go of
the fight, the guarding, of the wishing it away, and

(03:01):
just allow it to be as an is. Breathe and accept,
Breathe and understand, accepting that if it is like this forever,

(03:35):
that it would be okay, that you would be okay
when you come to your breath. Today's mantra I can

(03:56):
be with a grip of pain. Repeat to yourself, either
out loud or in your mind, and I can be
with a grip of pain. Follow us on Instagram at
