As you inhale, notice where in the body you may be holding unnecessary tensionor effort. As you exhale, soften. Notice where you can release tension. Here, bring to mind a place you are thankful for. This mightbe a place within your home, in your neighborhood, or a vacation spot. Whateverthis place is, whether indoor or outdoor, bring to mind what you see in thisplace. What objects, shapes, colors, textures. Are there people? Animals?Plants? Are you alone? Notice what you hear. What sounds exist in this space? Isthere more silence or noise? Observe any scents you notice in this space. Bringto mind the heaviness or lightness aromas in the air. Observe any memories thatarrive as you bring to mind what you smell in this place you are thankful for. Arethere tastes associated with this place? What, if anything, do you taste? Noticewhat you can feel or touch in this place. Observe the air on your skin. Howdoes it feel? Is it hot, cold, warm, cool?  Bring to mind the movement of your body in this place.
