This 7 min meditation is designed with an open ending so that it can be included as an intro for silent meditation. In this recording, I’m sitting on the floor, against a wall, with a sleeping pup by my outstretched legs. You’re welcome to join me for a relaxing, grounding, and relieving body-awareness meditation.

Begin in a seated position,

Maybe against a wall like me.

Just sort of let your breath press your shoulders down on the inside.

And kind of just sit with no agenda,

Not even holding your posture,

Not holding your mouth,

Not holding your fingers in any sort of position,

But just sort of letting loose kind of slowly,

Kind of easy,

Like kind of squishy and soft,

Like we're kind of just made of sand.

And as you breathe,

Like kind of play with where the flow is taking you.

Mine's kind of going side to side,

But it's different for everyone,

Like what your body needs.

Maybe introduce some neck rolls,

Head rolls.

Mine kind of naturally just matches with my inhales and exhales,

Like that's when it seems to want to switch directions or sort of take a pause or like go even slower.

I'm gonna start to slowly bring it back to center,

To spine,

To intention,

To,

I'm not quite finding my posture as I would in more of a lotus meditation.

This is my wall meditation with the dog.

So I'm just noticing,

Noticing its benefits,

Just having this support to lean against.

It kind of makes the relaxing,

Like I feel like a proper blog that can lean against a corner and like find its way up with little effort,

You know?

If you find yourself in a couple of mind loops or thoughts that are distracting you from letting go,

Just take deep breaths.

Mind your shoulder blades.

When you inhale,

Like feel the bottom of your belly forward.

Fill it with deep air that travels down the back of your body,

The back of your throat,

Back of the esophagus,

Back of your stomach,

Like travels in a kind of a scooping motion.

So you're like really filling up the tank.

And try different exhales,

Meaning like from different muscle contractions.

You can kind of feel like if you just breathe flat,

Like you just decompress in all directions,

It kind of like deflates a certain way.

But when you exhale with like a gut kind of push up,

It brings up this heat through my nose at least.

It feels like I'm cycling all the old breath that gets stuck from shallow breathing,

Like normal breathing,

Like talking breathing.

I don't have time to get to lower breath so that air kind of doesn't circulate as much as the system.

It kind of feels good,

Right?

Body like benefits.
