Name: Compassionate Body Scan - Cultivating Acceptance With Rumi
Uploaded: 2023-08-23T18:53:45.582Z
Duration: 12 min 29 s
Channel: Lila Grace
Description: This practice is inspired by Rumi’s great poem Guest House. Meeting each part of the body in turn with gentle kindly awareness, as experiences come and go. This being human is a guest house. Every morning a new arrival. The dark thought, the shame, the malice, meet them at the door laughing and invite them in. Be grateful for whoever comes, because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.
