Hello,
Pasha Lindy here.
Here's a short mindfulness practice designed to help us let go of thinking and come back to the body,
To the present moment.
So first,
Finding a comfortable sitting,
Standing or lying position and closing the eyes or gazing downwards with a soft focus and taking a nice long deep breath.
Now first of all,
Scanning down through the body from head to toe,
Letting go of any tension you discover with every out breath.
The eyes,
Face and jaw,
Shoulders,
The belly and as we relax,
Our attention is naturally drawn to our body.
We start to feel the body breathing,
Appreciating the sensations of each in breath and out breath and from time to time we'll get lost in thoughts.
This is completely normal and at some point we'll realise and we'll kind of wake up.
No need to worry that your mind will wander.
We're not in control of when the mind wanders or where it goes to.
When we notice,
We can make a choice.
We can choose to let go and relax and encourage mindfulness by bringing our attention back to the breath and appreciating every moment of each in breath and out breath and if you wish,
You can continue,
Perhaps taking time to relax the body and tune back into the breathing again at other times during your day.
Thanks for taking time to reconnect.
