Settling into a comfortable posture, this practice invites you to become mindfully aware, still and calm in the present moment. Come home to the body and focus on the sensations, temperature, and points of tightness that become apparent. This is a practice of connecting to the sensations of the body, before simply letting them go and sitting in a space of pure awareness.

Temperature,

Tightness and so on Connect to the sensations of the body And allowing yourself to settle back and sit comfortably If you feel sensation in your body,

Just softening your face,

Your eyes,

Your shoulders The sensations are simply come and go in the space we call awareness Nothing to do,

Nothing to have Just bodily sensations rising and passing Like twinkling star on the open sky The sensations simply being known by awareness How is it feel to be aware,

To know you know Nothing to do,

Nowhere to go Just be in the moment Be present and aware Be here,

Now I like to invite you to notice your thoughts and emotions Any thoughts or emotions come to your mind Simply notice them Name them,

Let them be and let them pass from the blue sky of your mind And simply come back to your breath Come back to this moment Nothing to do,

Nothing to have,

Nothing to be Just these mental sensations,

Bodily sensations coming and going Like the twinkling star in the open sky Is it possible to simply rest in the field of awareness,

Rest in knowing Just notice what is it like to know that you are aware Is it possible to rest in this spacious mindfulness Awareness that can hold sounds,

Thoughts and sensations You don't need to accomplish anything right now,

Just be in the moment Then on your next breath,

Kindly bring your attention back to your breathing Come back to this moment,
