Have to share this gorgeous gatha for meditation from TNH. This one got me through a medical test today; it made me feel solid, lucid and calm in a situation that usually causes a good deal of anxiety. I highly recommend it!

Breathing in, I know I am breathing in.
Breathing out, I know I am breathing out.
In...
Out.
[breathing in, etc.] I feel my in-breath grow deep.
I feel my out-breath become slow.
Deep...
Slow.
I feel calm.
I feel ease.
Calm...
Ease.
I smile to my afflictions.
I release my afflictions.
Smile...
Release.
In, out.
Deep, slow.
Calm, ease.
Smile, release.
