Find a comfortable sitting position.
Let's meditate.
Place your hands on top of your thighs.
You can open or close your eyes.
Move around to make yourself even more comfortable.
Slowly breathing into your nose and slowly breathing out of your nose.
And begin to notice your thoughts.
Begin to notice your thoughts in your mind.
Step outside your thoughts and observe them,
Increasing the space between you and your thoughts.
And as you do this,
Notice that you note your thoughts.
Notice that your thoughts are separate from you.
You can let go your thoughts and still be present to observing your breath and root yourself to the present moment through your hands.
Each time you notice your thinking,
Release the thoughts and come back again and again and again.
As you begin to notice your thoughts,
Release the space between you and your thoughts.
As soon as you notice that you have gotten caught up in your mental chatter or story in your mind,
You have freed yourself from it.
You have freed yourself from your thoughts.
The goal of this meditation is not to stop thinking.
The goal of this meditation is not to stop thinking,
Not to clear your mind.
The goal of this meditation is for you to practice being less masked in your thoughts and knowing the difference between thinking and getting lost in your thoughts.
Don't try to stop your thoughts.
Don't block them.
Let them come up and then let them go.
Stand back and watch your thoughts drift by.
You are not your thoughts.
Slowly start to invite yourself back into your breath,
Bringing your tension back to your inhale and to your exhale.
Exhale.
Slow breath into your nose and a slow breath out of your nose.
Staying in this quiet space.
Inhale,
Reach both hands up.
Hands to your heart center.
We bow down and say Namaste.
Thank you so much for meditating with me.
