Finding a comfortable seated position and as you land in your seated position seeing whether you could notice the contact between your body and whatever surface is beneath you and as you land here and orient yourself in space with your eyes open kind of looking around noticing the space around you could you get this sense that you are exactly where you're meant to be getting a sense of the space welcoming you of you landing here and just opening yourself to the possibility that you're exactly where you're meant to be and as you land here and close down your eyes invite your awareness to travel inward to your internal landscape and the experiences emotions and sensations that are alive within noticing in particular the ones that are resistant to this moment maybe to this practice to where you are and just inviting some gentle movement to meet these sensations within perhaps you bring a hand to the part of your body where you're feeling resistance maybe some gentle hip circles or shaking out the arms and neck stretch a big yawn so inviting yourself to meet the parts of you that are resistant to what is here to where you are and as you next breathe in feel as though you're gathering all of those parts and bringing your awareness up into your brain and as you exhale it's like you're softening the organ of your brain allowing your awareness your consciousness to travel down through the body and releasing any resistance out of the base of your being and down into the earth as you breathe in feel the breath travel up through your tailbone all the way up to your heart space inviting your awareness to rest in your present heart here turning your attention to the love that exists in your heart space your present heart turning your awareness to a sound that you can hear now seeing whether you could follow the journey of one sound noticing the energy of seeking focusing on one sound and seeing then if you could open your awareness to all of the sounds available to you right now no need to seek just an open receptiveness to the sounds available to you in this moment right now and seeing whether you could open yourself to the possibility of listening with your heart opening yourself to the possibility of listening with your heart allowing every sound you experience now to fuel the love in your heart like every sound you witness is filling your heart with this unconditional presence and love every sound is a blessing as you next breathe in breathe into the abundance of your heart space and as you exhale feel all of your senses open to the experience as it is the textures on your skin your body breathing any smells and opening yourself now to the spaces that exist around the sensations the air the paws at the bottom and the top of the breath the gaps between your skin and your clothes this open awareness of both space and matter noticing it all without a need to judge any of it noticing it all simply as the gifts of this moment the gifts of presence the gifts of presence feeling your heart receiving presence your open awareness and dropping yourself into this sense of presence holding you presence holding you that when you turn your awareness to the present moment it always means you acknowledging the unconditional holding of presence and the blessing that it is to choose presence when you're ready bringing your awareness back to your breath taking one final inhale into your abundant heart space and as you exhale feel as though you're sharing this abundance with the space around you with the present moment gently beginning to wake your body up find some slight movement in a way that invites the abundance of this moment into your body and maybe you just recite to yourself either internally or out loud I'm here I'm here and as you gently open your eyes still reciting I'm here I'm here I'm here allowing your eye gaze to broaden as you arrive back with the sense of sight inviting this practice to bleed into the rest of your day now recognizing and choosing the gift of presence knowing and remembering that it is always here holding you
