The simplicity of being.
Welcome to this guided practice.
Today we're going to come back to simplicity,
In terms of appreciating the simple things in life.
The kind actions of those around us.
The moments of silence and peace that we earn when we return to see and appreciate nature unfolding.
The seasons turning.
The warmth of a loved one.
Their compassionate actions towards us.
The support they give us.
And the way in which they pull us out of dark places.
And the simplicity of being here.
Of being with the breath,
The body.
The simple peace and blossoming of soul.
Take a couple breaths with it now.
That which lives uncluttered.
That which beats a simple ebb and flow.
Your heart.
Unwavored by any distractions,
Chaos,
And recurring thoughts in the mind.
For they are just dramas.
Just things flickering happening here and there,
Up and down.
But what lays constant is your gaze.
Gazing up through your heart.
To see a world of many things.
To be detached of those things.
To be detached of the success,
The wanting,
The more and more.
For the future to come sooner.
For that past scar to be over.
For all these things we wish for and want dissolve,
Dissolve in the presence,
In the here.
In the simple.
Take another breath with me here.
Softening your chest.
Letting go into the home.
Into the peaceful sanctuary of your soul.
Let's practice residing here for a few moments.
Just breathing into the heart space.
Opening more to the presence and subtle movement of the soul.
Perhaps your body slightly moving now,
Just slightly undulating and you can almost let go to that.
Simplicity of being.
Out of stillness it emerges to waver us back and forth,
Experience grace.
Inspiring us to care,
To place attention,
Compassion upon each situation we find ourselves in.
The stillness,
Grace and presence that allows us,
Allows us to be.
To feel authentic with ourselves,
Our world,
All thoughts and emotions.
Sense everything that crosses your mind now.
Sense everything that pounds and rips at your heart.
Sense every aspect uncovered lurking in the shadows of where we still have not learned to soften.
And soften is the message they yearn for,
To soften and love.
Care and attention placed on each breath.
And breathe slowly trusting in the process of surrender.
Letting go.
And just noticing if your mind drifts anywhere at any point and bringing it back.
Letting go into this place of no words,
No descriptions.
Fluid and open into the simple baseline and origin of life and the universe.
Of that which lives at the origin of your soul and deep,
Deep expanding throughout and into your heart and body.
And do it with me now.
Breathe into that depth,
Into the origin of that silence.
Breathe with it and soften to inhabit this space of peace.
And with this feeling of peace and heartfulness,
Feel you can send it and spread it to the world around you,
Into your environment.
Breathe and feel your presence emit,
Uncover and discover all possibilities of life.
Feel it simply all here within you.
For peace,
Its presence.
And just bringing your hands to your heart,
Gratitude towards,
Rediscovering the simple.
Rediscovering yourself and the simplicity in your being.
Thank you,
Namaste.
