Hello and welcome to this practice to help bring you into the present moment by using your sense of touch.
Using our senses is a great way to bring us into the present moment and when we're in the present moment we're not worried about something in the future or the past.
So let's begin.
Now simply bring your right thumb and right forefinger together and gently rub them together with all of your attention.
Feel all the ridges in your fingertips.
What can you notice?
What does it feel like?
Now switch to your right thumb and right middle finger.
Is it the same?
Is it different?
Put all your intention and attention into feeling as many different parts of your fingertips as you can.
And now let's go to your right thumb and right ring finger.
Again,
What do you notice?
Does it feel the same?
Does it feel different?
Putting all your attention into feeling all those different ridges of your fingertips.
And now let's go to your right thumb and right pinky finger.
Do you notice anything different?
Maybe it's smoother,
Maybe it's more rough.
Really just focusing all your attention into your fingertips.
Now let's switch hands,
Starting with your left thumb and left forefinger.
Rubbing together with such intention you can feel all the different parts of your fingertips.
Do you notice anything different from your right hand?
Or does it feel exactly the same?
Now going to your left thumb and left middle finger.
Focusing on all those ridges in your fingertips.
What can you notice?
Now on to your left thumb and left ring finger.
Putting all your intention and attention into feeling as much as you can in those fingertips.
And now going to your left thumb and left pinky finger.
What can you notice?
Maybe it feels more like a stretch to even touch the fingertips.
Maybe it feels smoother,
Maybe it feels rougher.
Just put all your intention and attention into feeling those ridges of your fingertips.
Now you can release your fingers and let's just take a deep breath in together here.
And releasing.
Another deep breath in together.
And releasing.
And remember that you can use your sense of touch by gently rubbing your fingertips together anytime you feel you need to come back to the present moment.
Anytime you're worrying about something in the future or in the past just simply rub your fingertips together to bring you back into this moment.
Right here,
Right now.
Enjoy the practice and enjoy the benefits of being right here,
Right now.
