Props: a firm seat, a block or bolster
For the month of January we ground ourselves as we move and live. Can you bring awareness into your feet? They are always with you in the Present; they can serve as a wonderful anchor to return to, time and time again, as needed when thoughts pull on your focus. The Present is where there is a never-ending outpouring of love - for yourself, for others, the world.
You just need yourself and comfortable seat for this 27 minute meditation. This dialogue (first 7 minutes) and formal meditation practice (7 minutes onward) is geared to help you listen deeply, to yourself, your experiences, and your loved ones. We listen with much more than just our ears. And, honest listening happens when we are in the present, rather than thinking back on what was said prior or conjure up our future words.
For November’s meditation, you just need yourself and a comfortable seat. Enjoy this 17 minute guided meditation using a gentle visualization practice to help facilitate a connect to your highest Self. This meditation can be visited daily, weekly, or when in need of slowing down, re-connecting to your spirit, and recognizing the healing power you have within your own mind-body.
You need a chair for this 12 minute meditation. This is intended to help your healing process. Enjoy this daily while supporting a recovery, or to kick-start a healthier mindset. Practice listening to your body and working with it. Notice thoughts of “poor timing,” “why did this happen to me,” “this sucks,” “this is slowing me down and I don’t like it.” Start trusting that your body knows and wants to come back into balance and health.
You need a chair for this 18 minute meditation. This month’s focus is about releasing the need to label, judge, and critique. By nature, words and thoughts create limitations. See if you can experience sensations - in your body and life - without having to label them as good, bad, right, or wrong. Allow them to be as they are, and connect with something deeper, the stillness and breath that is always present inside of you. Carry this with you in your practice and daily life this month!
