Breathe in and out slowly,
Calmly and deeply.
Breathe in and out with relief,
Being aware of your breath.
Aware of the light each breath gives to you.
Giving a gentle awareness to all sensations within your body.
Feeling the areas of pain and feeling the areas without pain.
These are simply sensations.
It can be so easy to label the areas of pain in our body as suffering.
We often forget the areas of non-suffering,
Of wellness within our body.
Let us release the labels of being a person who is in pain.
And instead being aware that you are simply feeling sensations.
Focus your attention on an area without pain in your body.
Maybe choosing a limb or a very small area.
Any space where there is no pain or less pain in your body.
Now as you focus on this area,
Allow it to occupy your full mental awareness.
Simply present and aware of this area without pain.
Bringing your consciousness and total focus here.
Breathe calmly and enjoyably as you bask in this sensation.
Attention isμΌ Now bring your attention to an area of strong sensation or pain.
Place your awareness here.
And this time,
Send your breath to this area as if your breath is a healing light and it is reaching on your inhale to this area of pain in your body.
It is extending the area of wellness,
The area without pain,
And touching into this area of pain.
And as you exhale,
The pain softens and you soften the importance of this pain in your mind.
Breathing and sending healthy thoughts of wellness to this area.
Exhaling,
Releasing and softening thoughts of pain,
Sensations of pain.
The sensation of pain is one of many sensations in your body.
In the area where you don't feel pain also holds a sensation,
A sensation of hot or cold,
Tingly,
Healthy,
The feeling of your clothes on your skin or the air or the wind touching your skin.
Why must we judge which sensations are perceived as joyful and which are that of suffering?
Can you see all sensations as simply sensations tying your body and your mind to this moment?
Let us do a body scan from the feet up to the top of your head.
Simply feeling every sensation in your body.
Do not get stuck on one sensation.
Just be aware of each sensation,
Whether that's pain or no pain.
Cold,
Itchy,
Warm or soft.
Treating each sensation with gratitude and awareness.
Slowly scanning your body,
Feeling each sensation with gratitude and simple awareness.
Let us do a body scan from the feet up to the top of your head.
Let us do a body scan from the feet up to the top of your head.
If you get caught on an area of discomfort,
Take a big breath in and send light to it as you exhale and allow it to soften and soften the hold it has on your mind as you continue moving up or down the body.
Let us do a body scan from the feet up to the top of your head.
Your pain,
Your sensations are one very small aspect of your environment.
Look and feel deeper into your soul's essence.
Who you really are.
Your light and your love.
Your compassion and your peacefulness.
It always remains.
It is always present.
Let's now focus on that inner state of being.
Connecting to the subconscious state of wellness and of wholeness.
Your inner light.
Feel,
Envision and expand this beautiful inner light that you hold.
This space of wellness and wholeness.
This space of wellness and wholeness.
Come back to your physical body.
Be aware of each sensation but also aware of the depth of your core.
Of the love and compassion of this space of inner peace within you.
Being simply aware that you will feel what you choose to focus on throughout the day.
Take deep breaths.
Don't associate with your pain but associate with your wholeness and with the health within you.
Be aware of your inner light.
Feel,
Envision and expand this beautiful inner light that you hold.
This space of wellness and wholeness.
