Our thoughts are part of our human experience.
Trying to bring our mind back from our thoughts and into a practice of relaxation,
Peace and stillness is the goal for this meditation.
Settle into a seated posture and close your eyes.
Begin to notice the energy in the mind and the body.
Begin to release your thoughts.
Staying focused on the breath.
With the focus on the breath,
Choose one spot in your body that you wish to bring this breath to open,
Relax and release any tension and release any thoughts.
Observe the physical sensation of the breath in the body.
Continue to observe the breath for the next several moments,
Bringing the mind back to the breath to release the thoughts.
Now bring the awareness back to the breath.
And open the awareness to your thoughts.
Take the next several moments to become aware of your thoughts.
Try,
Try just to be with the thoughts,
Allowing the thoughts to float by,
Witnessing the thoughts and not attaching the mind and the body to the thoughts.
Allow the thought just to be.
Watch it pass by and allow it to leave the mind.
Return to the breath and patiently wait for another thought to arise.
Watch this new thought and then bring it back to the breath again.
Continue for the next several moments of witnessing the thought,
Bringing it back to the breath and releasing the thought from the mind and the body.
Notice when you're lost in thought or when the mind wanders.
If any tension starts to arise from the thought,
Bring the focus back to the breath to ground yourself and allow the thought to release.
Bringing your attention back to the space that you're sitting in.
Bringing your attention back to the present moment.
Bring the attention back to the thoughts connected to the mind and the body.
Bringing your focus back to your plan for the rest of the day.
Remembering to pause when needed to unhook the thoughts from the mind and the body.
Give yourself time each day to pause,
Connecting to the breath to release the thoughts,
To release tension and to relax into stillness while unhooking the thoughts.
Stay focused on the breath throughout your day so that you stay grounded.
Enjoy the present moment.
Stay in gratitude,
Awareness with the connection of the breath.
I am grateful for you taking time to meditate and unhook your thoughts,
To live a happier and healthier life full of peace and joy.
With gratitude,
Yours always in meditation,
Marie.
Thank you.
