Stress Relief

Quiet, please,
Nobody speak.
I need to make sure,
I can hear my heart beat.

Please welcome silence.
Let it fill the room.
Turn off the lights.
Leave me in my tomb.

Remove all distractions.
Let me have a think.
So into my mind,
I am able to sink.

I need to relax,
Let my brain take control.
This is the way,
To engage with my soul.

The calm will wash over
And offer me peace.
The tension will rise
As my stress is released.

So give me five minutes
To let me unwind.
These are the steps,
To a healthy mind.
