MIDL: Experiencing The Natural Breath

In MIDL Mindfulness Meditation Training 6/52 you begin mindfulness of breathing by creating the conditions to observe habitual control within the breathing itself. Breathing makes a wonderful meditation object for observing control because it can be intentionally controlled or happen autonomously. To decondition habitual control in this training you simply breathe out, relax and wait for the breath to draw in by itself.

Wonderful practice focusing on our natural breath. Much love and gratitude for creating this practice. ❤️🙏

This mediation has created new space to observe where I can grow. I suspect the MIDL experience will help deepen total awareness in and out of practice. Thank you 🙏

Feeling very relaxed. I was harbouring a lot of tension which eased with this meditation. Plan to do this regularly over the next few days. Thank you!

I love this meditation. So very relaxing. Your voice is so soothing. 🙏

I've always struggled with controlling the breath. The technique of "waiting" for the next in-breath to arrive was incredibly helpful!
