Embodying Spaciousness

Beginning with eyes open, this short practice is helpful at any time of the day. We begin by grounding our awareness in the body, and we go on to explore the concept of spaciousness, within the body and extending outside of it. This exercise was adapted from neuroscientific experiments with meditation practices described by Martha Beck in her book, Seeking by Starlight.

Dana’s clear & concise tone is wonderful & encouraging!

I really liked how you gave us more space in the meditation as it went on. In the beginning I was thinking you needed to pause more but as you began to give us more space between your words, I think it totally worked. Thank you,

This was one of the best guided meditations I've done. I really struggle with focusing on breath (it makes me anxious not just at that time but throughout the day) so this was perfect! Thank you.

So lovely, grounding, and soothing. Thank you!!

Good for experiencing the moment, for feeling the truth of our cells and our environment that is mostly empty space, and experiencing the wonder of the science we already know to feel real in our bodies. Grounding and expansive.
