Practicing from Villach
A guided sequence for physical relaxation and awareness through movement and breath.
Begin by lying down, consciously relaxing the entire body from toes to head. Focus on the breath. Perform gentle spinal twists while lying down, moving the head and legs to opposite sides. Follow with rolling side to side while holding the knees. Stretch the body side to side and then fully. Move to a kneeling position for cat-cow stretches, coordinating movement with breath. Practice standing movements involving arm raises and knee bends to shift weight. Conclude by lying down again for deep relaxation, focusing on the natural breath. The session integrates mindful movement with sustained awareness of bodily sensations and breathing patterns.
"Feel and relax the whole body, from your toes to the top of your head."
"Be aware of your breathing, normal breathing."
