Welcome to this grounding meditation.
Find your comfortable seat,
Either on a chair or sitting cross-legged on the floor.
Lengthen the spine,
Tuck the chin towards the chest,
And then roll the shoulders a couple of times.
Up,
Back,
And down.
And then come to stillness,
Close the eyes.
And start to rub the palms of the hands in front of you.
Hear the sounds and the sensations in the hands.
And then place one hand on the belly,
One hand on the chest.
Bring your awareness to the contact of the back of the body with the floor or the surface underneath you.
And then become aware of the contact of your hands with your body.
Maybe feeling the texture and the temperature of your clothes.
And also those tiny movements of the hands,
Up and down,
In rhythm with your breath.
And then keeping the eyes closed,
Take a deep breath in through the nose.
Open the mouth and sigh out.
Again,
Breathe in.
Fill up the belly,
Fill up the chest.
And then open the mouth and exhale.
Hold the air out.
One more time,
Breathe in.
Open the mouth and sigh out.
And then go back to your natural breath,
In and out through your nose.
Notice how you feel just after a couple of minutes of grounding meditation.
You're ready.
Open up.
