Not Synced
Dear friends,
-
Not Synced
maybe we can practice together
-
Not Synced
a short grounding practice.
-
Not Synced
So first of all,
just coming back to our body.
-
Not Synced
You might like to close your eyes
if you're comfortable
-
Not Synced
or you can leave them open as well.
-
Not Synced
Being aware of your feet on the ground.
-
Not Synced
In touch with the Earth.
-
Not Synced
Knowing that...
-
Not Synced
Mother Earth is beneath our feet,
-
Not Synced
even if it's...
-
Not Synced
below a lot of concrete,
she is there.
-
Not Synced
Feeling...
-
Not Synced
our buttocks on the seat.
-
Not Synced
The weight of our body.
-
Not Synced
This miracle of gravity
-
Not Synced
holding us in our place
so we don't float off.
-
Not Synced
Our back is straight.
-
Not Synced
Can let go of the tension in our shoulders,
-
Not Synced
or our hands,
-
Not Synced
or our laps, or our thighs,
feeling the weight...
-
Not Synced
of our hands.
-
Not Synced
The top of our head
pulling up to the sky
-
Not Synced
Coming back to our breathing.
-
Not Synced
Noticing that we're breathing.
-
Not Synced
Breathing in,
-
Not Synced
aware of the whole length of this in-breath.
-
Not Synced
And breathing out,
-
Not Synced
noticing...
-
Not Synced
the whole length of the out-breath.
-
Not Synced
Just noticing like a wave.
-
Not Synced
Our body is breathing because
it knows how to breathe all by itself.
-
Not Synced
Just noticing the whole body breathing in
-
Not Synced
and the whole body breathing out.
-
Not Synced
Becoming aware...
-
Not Synced
of any tension in the body.
-
Not Synced
Any intensity.
-
Not Synced
In our shoulders, our head,
-
Not Synced
our arms, our legs,...
-
Not Synced
And as we breathe out,
we can...
-
Not Synced
invite all that tension to
dissolve away into the Earth.
-
Not Synced
We can invite up a feeling of joy.
-
Not Synced
The joy...
-
Not Synced
of sitting here
-
Not Synced
with the Spring
-
Not Synced
all around.
-
Not Synced
The birds singing.
-
Not Synced
The clouds moving across the blue sky.
-
Not Synced
The buds opening.
-
Not Synced
New life...
-
Not Synced
coming. The sap rising.
-
Not Synced
And breathing out,
smiling with joy to the spring.
-
Not Synced
Breathing in, we know...
-
Not Synced
that Winter is giving way to this Spring.
-
Not Synced
And breathing out, smiling
-
Not Synced
to all the flowers, the leaves
-
Not Synced
which are on their way,
-
Not Synced
which are being created
right now.
-
Not Synced
And how does that feel to have joy
in the body?
-
Not Synced
Simply smiling.
-
Not Synced
Offering ourselves a smile.
-
Not Synced
And noticing
-
Not Synced
maybe around our eyes,
-
Not Synced
maybe in our tummy,
-
Not Synced
already the body changes when we smile.
-
Not Synced
Smiling with our whole body.
-
Not Synced
Breathing
-
Not Synced
and smiling.
-
Not Synced
And inviting up a feeling of happiness.
-
Not Synced
Knowing that we are part
-
Not Synced
of a practice community.
-
Not Synced
We are not alone.
-
Not Synced
And breathing out,
-
Not Synced
feeling happiness.
-
Not Synced
The sensation of happiness in our body.
-
Not Synced
Breathing in,
-
Not Synced
knowing I'm not alone.
-
Not Synced
And breathing out,
-
Not Synced
feeling in connection
-
Not Synced
with all people a little bit
-
Not Synced
all over the world
-
Not Synced
who are practicing
-
Not Synced
with me right now.
-
Not Synced
And breathing in, aware...
-
Not Synced
of this beautiful planet
-
Not Synced
all around me
-
Not Synced
but also inside of me.
I am the planet Earth.
-
Not Synced
And breathing out,
-
Not Synced
feeling one
-
Not Synced
with this beautiful planet Earth
-
Not Synced
all around me
-
Not Synced
and inside of me.
-
Not Synced

-
Not Synced
And you can open your eyes
-
Not Synced
and look around
-
Not Synced
and carry on your day.
