Practice Listening to Our Lung Brain | Sister Dang Nghiem

Practice listening to our lung brain.

In this exercise, you listen to the physiological messages,

specifically coming from your lungs,

including your respiratory rate,

the quality of your breathing,

any chest wall pain or tightness,

or any sensations arising from your chest area.

You can quietly repeat the key words

at the end of each exercise

to aid your concentration and meditation.

Sit or lie somewhere quiet.

Tune in to listen to the sensations

and emotional messages that are issued from your lung brain,

such as a feeling of ease,

versus suffocation,

expansiveness versus tightness or withdrawal.

Lightness and happiness,

versus feeling heavy and crushed,

and so on.

Smile,

rest,

and release any pain or tension in your chest

in every pause,

between the inbreaths and the outbreaths.

Breathing in.

I become aware of my breath.

Breathing out.

I listen to my breath.

Aware of breathing.

Listening.

[BELL]

Thank you.

Thank you, my dear breath.
