Nurturing Presence: A Guided Journey to Embodied Ease In Rena's guidance, we start by breathing deeply, allowing our breath to reach its natural depth. We're encouraged to slow down, letting each breath settle us. Rena prompts us to notice any tension in our bodies, gently inviting us to release it without force. We're asked to recall a mildly stressful situation and observe where we feel it in our bodies. Then, we imagine someone who brings us comfort and imagine what they might say to ease our stress. We multiply this feeling of support infinitely, soaking in the sense of Hashem's safety and nurturance. Throughout, we pay attention to how our bodies respond, staying with the feelings of ease for as long as we need.
