Bring a compassionate attention to your body…. hold your body tenderly, with its joys and its tightness, its longings and its love, as if you would hold a child who is frightened, exhausted and weary. Say thank you to your body for carrying so much. As you offer gratitude to your body, you can invite it to soften, to be held in loving awareness.
