Settle into a pose,
And relax into a stillness that doesn't make you feel trapped or rigid.
Take a few full breaths to help you settle.
Whenever you're ready,
Breathe naturally,
Whether that's through your mouth or nose.
As best you can,
For the few minutes of this practice,
Stay still,
Knowing that the more still you remain,
The more the everyday tension you carry will become apparent.
What are you feeling right now?
What parts of your body are calling for your attention?
What are the thoughts that accompany these sensations?
Are you able to tune into the body parts that are not tense or sensitive?
What parts of your body are calling for your attention?
What parts of your body are calling for your attention?
What parts of your body are calling for your attention?
Notice any urge that may arise to shift positions to relieve any discomfort you may be feeling.
This is a completely normal reaction,
And yet,
See if it's possible to be with the sensations for at least three more breaths before adjusting,
If at all.
What parts of your body are calling for your attention?
What parts of your body are calling for your attention?
Once the timer goes off,
Move in any way you like,
Trying to be present for the flood of relief you may feel from adjusting your posture.
What parts of your body are calling for your attention?
