Hi,
We're going to go through a guided meditation focused on detachment and letting go.
Change yourself in a seated position,
Comfortable,
Feet pressed into the floor,
The ground,
The earth.
Either keeping a gentle gaze or closing the eyes,
Start to draw in deep breaths,
Arriving in the present moment,
The here,
The now.
Taking these moments to deeply inhale and exhale to release.
Take another deep inhale,
Filling up the belly,
And exhale to let go.
One more deep inhale through both nostrils,
And then exhale to let go.
Release the control of the breath,
And let your breath just flow in its own natural rhythm pattern.
The body breathes all on its own without you telling it to do anything.
And start to bring your attention to the mind,
The thoughts in the head.
Just starting to notice,
Notice the pace of the thoughts,
The quality of the thoughts.
Maybe it feels a little spacey,
Maybe fast-paced,
Sluggish,
Clear.
Start to notice these qualities,
And start to isolate one thought,
Maybe one thought that's coming up for today more frequently than others.
Let that thought float,
Just float in the mind,
Being held by yourself.
Notice the thoughts,
How it appears.
Notice any attachments to the thought,
How it makes you feel,
Where you might feel that sensation in your body.
Notice if the thought starts to call up other thoughts,
Feelings,
And emotions,
And if so,
Just redirect yourself back to that single thought.
And now bringing the thought a little closer to the mind and the mind-eye,
Seeing it in bold.
Start to feel the thought become more distant,
Maybe floating further away.
Maybe the color lessens.
The text of the thought might become fuzzy,
As if seen from a distance.
And see the thought far off,
As almost you grow waving at it from miles and miles away,
Waving,
See you later to the thought,
Waving the freedom to let go at the thought.
And as the thought disappears in the distance,
Notice the breath,
Notice your feelings,
Sensations in the body.
Notice how they may be different than before,
No judgment,
Just a different moment than the previous moment.
And continuing this practice with any other thoughts that comes into the mind on your own for as long as your body calls.
More focusing on the breath,
The natural rhythm and flow throughout the rest of your practice.
Keeping the breath at the forefront as the thoughts fade into the distance.
