In this meditation,
We'll explore a concentrated awareness practice.
The intention here is to collect the attention as we begin bringing the attention to this sitting,
Breathing body right here,
Right now.
Opening to the comings and goings of sound.
For the purpose of this meditation,
There's nothing worth thinking.
Aiming the attention towards this experience of breathing,
Whether at the tip of the nose or the rise and fall of the belly.
Aim and sustain.
Aim the attention,
Tip of the nose,
Rise and fall of the belly,
Or wherever you can most easily make contact with the breath.
And then sustain that attention for as long as possible.
Breathing in.
Know that you're breathing in.
Breathing out.
Know that you're breathing out.
And then,
As we go through this meditation,
We'll explore a more concentrated awareness practice.
The intention here is to collect the attention as we begin bringing the attention to this sitting,
Breathing body right here,
Right now.
Alright,
Great.
