Healium’s Beach Meditation Script for Anxiety
Sit in a relaxed, comfortable position and take a deep breath. Scan your body to ensure maximum comfort, adjusting by 5% if needed. For the next few moments, there is nowhere to go, nothing to do. Take another deep breath and notice the colors and shapes in front of you—one by one.
Imagine yourself in a beach chair, without a care in the world. Observe the contours of the clouds, the play of light on the waves. Feel the weight of your body resting on the chair. Shift your attention to your thighs and sit bones; let them relax completely, allowing the chair to rise to meet you. Become one with the beach chair.
Move down to your knees, relaxing them completely. Drop into your shins, ankles, and let the legs and feet become heavy like waves washing over you. Feel the wet sand underneath your heels. Let the balls of your feet stretch into it, enjoying the waves washing over the tops of your feet, ankles, and shins. Bury your toes in the sand and then relax completely.
Open your ears and listen to one sound, then another. Relax the skin on your scalp, forehead, cheeks, and jaw. Move your attention to your throat and feel the warm relaxation move down through your chest, belly, and abdomen. Feel your whole body completely relaxed. Let a slight grin tug at the corner of your mouth. Breathe the warmth of the sun into your heart.
Now, close your eyes and feel them heavy in their sockets. With each breath, count down from ten. Take a deeper breath, open your eyes, and look skyward as you come to the end of this meditation.
Set your intention to carry this feeling of peaceful relaxation with you through the rest of your day. Know that you can come back to it again and again. Namaste.
