Hello,
Pashalindi here.
Here's a short mindfulness practice designed to help us let go of thinking and come back to the body,
To the present moment.
We'll be paying attention to different sensations.
So first,
Finding a comfortable sitting,
Standing or lying position.
Closing your eyes or leaving your eyes open with a soft gaze and taking a few nice long deep breaths.
Exhaling fully and then allowing the breath to settle into its own natural rhythm.
And now opening up your awareness to include the whole body and feeling into any sensations of contact,
Pressure,
Hardness or softness.
When you find some sensations,
Resting the attention there,
Allowing yourself to really feel them.
And any changes in the sensations before allowing your attention to move to a similar sensation elsewhere.
Simply noticing when we get distracted and coming back to feeling sensations.
And now feeling into sensations of warmth or coolness.
Finding these sensations and resting the attention there.
Noticing what happens.
And allowing the attention to move to other similar sensations elsewhere.
And now feeling into sensations of moisture or dryness.
And when you find some sensations,
Simply resting your attention there.
Really feeling what's going on there.
And now feeling into sensations of movement.
Now opening up the awareness to include sensations anywhere throughout the body.
Allowing the attention to be drawn to this sensation and that sensation.
Feeling into sensations,
Noting their qualities and if they stay the same or if they change.
Let's continue like this for a few more moments in silence.
And if you wish,
You can continue.
Perhaps feeling the different qualities of sensations in your body at other times during the day.
Thanks for taking time to reconnect.
