Hey everyone, I'm Michelle, yourmeditation guide.
I'm so grateful for your continued support and all the
wonderful meditation requests you've been sharing.

(00:30):
community. Now let's begin today's practice
together. Welcome, dear friends.
If you're experiencing panic or intense anxiety right now, know

(00:54):
that I'm here with you. Find any position that feels
safe, even if it's not perfectlystill.
Take one slow, deep breath with me now.

(01:37):
Gently place a hand on your chest or abdomen, feeling this
simple movement of your breath. This reminds you that your body
knows how to breathe even now, in this moment.

(02:34):
Notice that in this moment you are physically safe.
Feel the support beneath you. This sensation of panic is
uncomfortable, but it cannot harm you and it will pass.

(03:33):
With each breath, silently count.
Inhale for a count of four, Holdfor a count of 1, exhale for a
count of 6. This longer exhale naturally

(03:54):
activates your body's calming system.

(04:27):
Yeah. As your breath steadies, gently

(05:05):
remind yourself this feeling is temporary.
I am safe. My body knows how to return to
calm. Yeah.

(06:34):
If overwhelming sensations arise, focus on naming what you
can physically sense. 5 things you see, 4 things you can touch,
three things you can hear. This ground you in the present

(06:58):
moment. You are not your panic, you are

(08:02):
the awareness that can observe these sensations as they rise
and fade. Rest in the knowledge that this

(08:59):
wave of panic will recede, just as every wave before it has
done. You have survived every panic
attack you've ever had. We'll now enter into a quiet

(09:56):
period. Continue the counted breathing,
4 counts in, one count of holding, and 6 counts out.

(10:47):
Yeah. Yeah.

(11:47):
Yeah. Yeah.

(13:12):
Gently bring your awareness backto the present moment.
Notice how the intensity may have shifted, even just
slightly. Remember, this tool of counted
breathing is always available toyou.

(13:38):
Thank you for your courage in facing these difficult feelings.
You are stronger than you know. Namaste.
