Mindful Awareness Of Emotion

This guided mindfulness practice will be about just bringing some mindful awareness to your experience,

Including thoughts,

Emotions,

Sensations,

Whatever is happening.

So just start off by seeing if you can relax your gaze or close your eyes and just notice your breath.

Notice where you feel the breath on the inhale and the exhale.

You don't need to do anything to change your breathing,

Just notice how the breath brings you into this moment and into the body.

And just notice what that's like to just touch into the moment and your experience in the body in the here and now.

And as you do this you can recognize that right now just for this moment I can allow everything to be just as it is and I am safe and I'm okay while allowing everything to be just as it is.

There's nothing I need to fix or change or figure out right here.

And as you do this you're going to notice other thoughts.

You might notice some emotions,

Some body sensations,

And that's normal.

Your mind might be making some judgments or you might be lost in stories and that's just the mind's natural tendency.

As soon as you notice that,

Just gently bring yourself back to the breath,

Back to the moment,

And remind yourself that it's okay to have those thoughts.

It's okay to have these emotions.

It's okay to have these body sensations.

This all can be here.

This all can be here and I can make space for it in my loving awareness or just in my awareness.

And just notice.

Notice the thoughts.

Notice the emotions and continue to go back to whatever is coming up as it comes through.

I'm noticing this from this place of my awareness and that is okay.

That can be here.

That can be here and I'm okay.

There's never anything bad about a thought,

An emotion,

Even a tendency.

It is what it is.

It's all equal.

And there's the practice.

This too can be here and that's okay.

Knowing that once we accept,

Fully accept something,

Only then can it change.
