A favorite with my Mindfulness class students, this is my version of the Mountain Meditation, inspired by Jon Kabat-Zinn. Through guided imagery and visualization, it brings about a sense of calm stability in the midst of life's changing patterns. As the image of the body and the image of the mountain merge into one, our sense of ourselves acquires the still, unmoving presence of the mountain. All the incidents of our lives are seen as no more than weather around a mountain. In our essential selves, we remain unmoved, unchanging, at rest, at peace.
