Com This is a guided meditation for patients.
When we feel impatient,
There's a kind of agitation in the body.
We're in a hurry to get from point A to point B.
Basically we're not comfortable with where we are right now.
The goal of this meditation is to help you to be at peace and relax with whatever is going on in your life right at this moment.
Begin by finding a comfortable position.
And now close your eyes.
Notice what you're experiencing in your body.
Are you aware of tension anywhere in your body?
What else are you experiencing?
If you're feeling impatient,
Perhaps there's some sense of restlessness.
Notice the details of what you're experiencing in your body.
If you're feeling energy,
Is it smooth or rough?
Notice exactly what it's like.
Bring your attention to your breathing.
Simply notice the in and the out of the breath.
Be aware of how your body feels as you breathe.
Be easily aware of all of these experiences without resistance.
Perhaps sometimes you'll notice a feeling of trying to get away from some experience.
Let that go and allow yourself to feel everything fully.
Now simply be aware of everything that's being experienced.
Along with the feelings in your body,
There are emotions.
Thoughts are coming and going.
Perhaps you're noticing things in the environment around you.
Simply be aware of everything that you're experiencing.
Whenever you notice yourself trying to push something out or trying to make something happen,
Let that go.
There's no need to try to stop thoughts or push them out.
Thoughts may be going on along with all the other experiences.
Anytime you get caught up in a train of thought,
That's fine.
Just easily come back to what you're feeling in your body.
Perhaps there's still some restlessness or agitation,
A feeling of impatience.
Doesn't matter.
Allow it to be there and notice how it feels.
Notice the emotions that are present.
Simply allow the feeling of impatience to be in your awareness.
If you notice that your muscles are tightening up around it,
Let your muscles relax.
From time to time,
You can bring your attention to your breathing.
Notice how soothing it is to feel the breath.
Let the soothing feeling of the breath meet the impatient feeling.
In that way,
You'll never forget.
Can you feel it?
Bring your awareness again to your body.
Feel the weight of your body.
Let yourself sink into the pool of gravity.
If there's still some feeling of impatience,
Some restlessness,
Simply feel that.
Notice what that's like.
Bring your awareness to your breath.
Notice the in and out of the breath.
Whenever you notice tension in the body and your muscles,
Let it go.
Now the music will continue for some time,
And you can continue the meditation for as long as you'd like.
When you're ready to end the meditation,
Take your time.
Come out slowly.
Now the music will continue for some time,
And you can continue the meditation for as long as you'd like.
