We'll begin today's practice in a comfortable seat.
So begin to make your way into a shape where you're seated.
Here's a great option,
Cross-legged and maybe seated on the shins.
Draw your attention to the flesh that's touching the surface you're seated on,
Allowing for that tactile sensation and interaction.
Draw the mind in.
And as the focus begins to center inward,
It brings a natural relax into our awareness.
As we begin to detect the space surrounding us,
The communication and the vibrations within us,
The external as well as internal feedback.
Widening our scope as much as we can.
Releasing our range of what we're able to hold in our attention,
Hold in our awareness.
As our awareness begins to broaden out and diffuse outward,
Just observe if there's any reoccurring thoughts or images,
Feelings that are arising.
And we'll work with name.
This exercise where we name our feeling,
Our thought,
Or our sensation.
It begins when we notice what's surfacing,
What reoccurring pattern is showing up.
Once we've named it,
We acknowledge that it's here,
That it's present.
And we make space for it to be here without judgment,
Without trying to alter it in any way.
And then we expand away from it.
Exhaling our field of awareness but with a little more distance.
We notice,
Acknowledge,
Make space,
And expand.
Wait.
Notice,
Then you can ridge psyche and another green.
Notice,
Acknowledge,
Make space,
Expand.
See,
Acknowledge,
Make space,
Expand.
Notice,
Acknowledge,
Make space,
Expand.
See,
Acknowledge,
Make space,
Expand.
This exercise can be done with light emotions,
Heavy emotions,
The habitual cycles of thoughts,
Our habit loops,
Our energetic vibration.
We can bring it in.
Slowly begin to draw your attention back to the touch points,
The flesh that's making contact with the surface,
Your surroundings,
Your external environment,
Your internal environment.
Keeping that awareness nice,
Wide,
And expansive.
Providing the room to feel,
To think,
To be,
Without judgment,
Without bias.
Just a place that you can expand from,
Learn,
And benefit from as well.
Starting to pull in a longer,
Deeper inhale,
A slow sealing off of the exhale.
And a full,
Deep breath in,
A surrendering breath out.
A slow,
Deep breath in,
A surrendering breath out.
I hope this practice brings you and all beings benefit in some way,
Shape,
Or form.
With love and light,
Gratitude and grace,
Namaste.
