This 5-minute meditation uses the five senses of sight, touch, hearing, smell and taste to connect to our physical body. When we connect to our body in this way, the senses send a message through the nervous system to the brain. Hand-in-hand with mindful breathing, this can be an effective way to take control of our thoughts and manage stressful situations. Once you are familiar with the technique, this short exercise can be practised anywhere to quickly ground you into the physical body.
