Body Awareness In Nature

During moments of heightened stress, anxiety and sadness, it can feel difficult to know what we need to do to take care of ourselves. When this happens, taking even just a short time to mindfully connect to nature and bring awareness to our bodies, may help to alleviate and manage those difficult moments.

This 8-minute mindfulness practice focuses on cultivating body awareness in nature. You are invited to find an outdoor green space such as your backyard, park, lawn, or forest. If you have access to trees, resting against one is an option to provide stability and support.
