This is a guided Earth Descent practice, led by Dr. Reggie Ray, Spiritual Director of the Dharma Ocean Foundation. In this practice, we connect with body and open to the space and energy of the earth beneath us. This practice is done in a lying down posture, lying flat on our back on a carpet, mat, or cushion. Our knees are up and tied together, with a yoga strap or belt to reduce pressure on our lower back and psoas muscle. Our head should be in a comfortable positon, either flat on our mat or on a small pillow to provide ultimate comfort and calm. Our elbows are on our mat, and our hands, resting gently on our lower belly—right over left if they overlap. Note: This session builds on the 10 point practice that Reggie offers in a separate guided meditation in this series for Insight Timer.
