Mindfulness of body. In this short practice, I invite you to be more grounded by connecting with your body. Please find a comfortable position, Sitting on a chair, And allow your feet to touch the floor giving you a sense of stability and support. Keep your legs uncrossed and your spine straight but comfortable, Giving you a sense of openness. Relax your shoulders. Connect. And you can rest the tip of your tongue on the roof of your mouth, Just behind your upper front teeth, Keeping your teeth apart and your lips closed, So you can relax your jaws. Rest your palms on your lap. And finally, Close your eyes to focus your attention inwards. Let's bring your awareness to the sensations on your feet. The temperature, The texture of the surface underneath. And you might want to press your feet down gently. Just take a moment to register that feeling. And when you're ready. Shift your attention to your lower legs and your knees. How does it feel? Just check for any sensations. Without any judgement. And if there is nothing going on, That's also okay. There's no need to change or fix anything. When you're ready. You can place your hands on your knees. And observe the sensations on your knees changing. Notice the temperature. Feel the weight of your hands. When you're ready, Let go of your lower legs and knees and shift your attention to your thighs as you move your hands to rest on them. Check what you notice moment by moment. And if at any point you find yourself getting lost in thoughts, Emotions, Just notice them, Welcome them, Allow them to flow and gently bring your attention back to your body. This is also part of the practice. And now, Shift your attention to your belly and your chest. And for this part, Place the right hand on your belly. And the left hand on your chest. Breathe deeply. And notice how your body expands. And contracts as you breathe. And rest your palms again on your lap. And focus all your attention on the sensations on your shoulders and arms. And finally shift your attention to your neck and your head. Exploring the sensations on the top of your head on your ears your eyes. Lips. The tip of your nose. And now, This time. Expand your attention to include your shoulders, Your arms. Your chest. Your belly. The legs. And your feet. Holding now your whole body in awareness for this moment. And take your time to notice how you're feeling now. And to accept and embrace your body exactly as it is. With gratitude. And kindness. And this is the end of our session. I thank you for joining me. And remember, You get better in this practice when you do it regularly. So keep practicing. I hope you enjoyed it and I wish you a blessed and mindful day.
