Welcome to the daily insight.
My name is Brian Hyman.
In today's meditation we will focus on finding the present moment.
Let's begin.
Find a comfortable position and settle in.
Close the eyes and begin to relax the body.
Let's take a deep inhale together and exhale let it go.
Again deep inhale cleansing breath and exhale release the breath.
Last time deep inhale and exhale release.
The next time you inhale repeat to yourself present moment.
The next time you exhale repeat to yourself present moment.
Let's try this together.
Deep inhale present moment and exhale present moment.
Continue on your own with each inhale and exhale.
Repeat the mantra or the words present moment anchoring the mind the heart the body the spirit in the present moment.
As you breathe consciously deeply focusing on the inhale in the present moment and focusing on the exhale in the present moment.
Notice how only a few moments of focusing on the breath quiets the mind.
Notice how only a few moments of stillness relaxes the body.
The next time you inhale present moment notice the pause before the exhale.
That tiny space anchors the awareness deeper still into the present moment.
Our ability to find that pause that little space keeps the mind anchored in the present moment.
As you continue to breathe inhaling present moment finding the pause between the breaths and exhaling the present moment.
Notice the quality of the mind.
Notice the connection between the mind body breath and the present moment.
You you you you By focusing on the breath we anchor the mind the heart the spirit in the present moment.
When we focus on the breath there's little to no room for the mind to wander.
And if the mind does wander we return our attention to the breath.
You you you you Last time deep inhale present moment and exhale present moment.
Start to bring your awareness back to the physical body.
Perhaps wiggle the fingers,
Circle the wrists,
Shrug the shoulders,
Wiggle the toes,
Circle the ankles,
Maybe move the head gently from side to side.
Come back into the physical body,
Come back into the space where you are.
Gently blink the eyes open.
Have a beautiful day.
