Swallowing Anxiety to Resourceful Relaxation

Swallowing your food can feel easy again, without the throat tightening the moment you notice yourself doing it.

That catch in your chest when a meal arrives, and the sudden awareness of your own throat that follows, is the exact pattern this session was built to meet.

A breathing pattern anchors the start, working like a transfusion, breathing in a resourceful colour and breathing out tension across three or four long exhales. From there you move to a mountainside with snow and a view of the forest, settled into a comfortable chair, where the ice locked in your neck and throat is imagined melting in the warmth of each breath. Food appears there too, and you notice how effortless it feels to taste and swallow it.

It runs about eleven minutes, and it's designed so that eating stops feeling like something to manage and starts feeling like something you simply do.
