As you return home after a long day
find a peaceful spot –
The sofa, the bed, or your favorite chair
and “collect” yourself:
“Take yourself back”…
from all the things you did,
from all the thoughts you had…
and return to yourself:
breathe in deeply
and relax your shoulders
on the outbreath.
While continue breathing
relax all the different parts of your body,
and thank them for carrying you through your day.
Then drink plenty of water, eat nutritious food,
and listen to relaxing music or to your own heart beat.
Remind yourself compassionately:
“I am home now”-
home in your body.
Let go of all tension,
calm your mind…
at the end of a long day –
be your own home
once again.
