The Affectionate Breathing Meditation is a gentle and nurturing practice that invites us to cultivate a deep sense of self-compassion and connectedness. As we settle into a comfortable position, we bring our attention to the natural rhythm of our breath. With each inhalation and exhalation, we infuse our breath with warmth, kindness, and love. We embrace our breath as a gentle embrace, soothing and comforting ourselves in the present moment. This practice allows us to develop a profound sense of self-care, acceptance, and tenderness, as we nurture the relationship we have with ourselves. Through Affectionate Breathing meditation, we foster a compassionate connection to our inner world and awaken a profound sense of love and compassion that can extend to others and the world around us.
