2 Minutes Of Stillness (Disrupting The Daily Race)

Take 2-minutes to disrupt the high tempo activity of the mind and body through stillness and breathwork. Try this instructive audio to get comfortable with the very simple practice of sitting in stillness, then explore how you might bring short periods of intentional stillness to the rhythms of your day. Integrate breath work, open awareness, body scan, and other mindfulness skills as you explore periods of intentional stillness in your day. This is a disruption skills practice. We use this to disrupt habits of moving quickly through our day. We can also use periods of stillness to develop new meditation and mindfulness practices. For example, if we want to build a morning meditation habit and really struggle to make it happen, we can start with this simple 2-minute skills practice every morning. Doing this builds the foundation for a morning meditation habit, and we can hold the intention and possibility that we can shift from stillness to meditation as we practice stillness.
