Softening into the body.
Softening into the touch points with the ground seat.
Maybe noticing sounds as they enter the ears.
Noticing any predominant sensations around the body.
Noticing any predominant sensations around the body.
Noticing any permanent sensations around the body.
Perhaps it's sensations of the belly as we breathe.

Noticing anything,
Judging.
Noticing anything,
Judging.
Noticing anything,
Just noticing this experience.
Inviting this gentle awareness to the parts of the body That could use some attention.
Inviting the breath to deepen.
Allowing the breath to oxygenate our whole body.
Breathless,
Caring,
Curiosity.
The whole body is feeling as we breathe.
Inviting a sense of ease.
Or care for the whole body.
This breath.
This moment.
Gentle awareness.
Being awake.
And aware of this experience.
All right.
Each breath.
Each breath.
Different from the last.
This is the new experience.
Being awake.
And aware.
Right now.
And may we bring the same quality,
Kind awareness.
For our experience for the rest of the day.
Sensing into the points of contact with the ground and the sea.
Maybe taking a deep breath or two.
And just being awake whenever you're ready.
