Morning Body Scan With Gentle Movement

The poet Ellen Bass talks about how she writes poetry because she doesn’t want to miss the world — what a beautiful way of describing how any contemplative practice, including the practices of yoga, can help us be more present and receptive to the daily gifts and lessons the world has to offer. Today’s Embodied Meditation is a Morning Body Scan with some gentle movement, inviting you to bring attention and reverence into the start of your day.

A lovely way to start the day. Bookmarked for future use.

Really beautiful practice, music and movement for the morning. Gentle and calming, soothing voice. Thank you!

Lovely meditation / yoga; some on my back & some sitting upright.

May I be receptive to all the world has to offer.

Very helpful, even for those of us (ahem!) who tend to be low-energy in the morning! Recommended.

Thank you for this lovely, gentle way to start my day ❤️
