Episode Description:

Welcome! This series introduces listeners to what meditation is and how to practice. And if you’re not a meditation beginner, it’s also a great way to re-ignite your practice in the new year.

For each week of January, we’ll review a different foundational topic followed by an introductory guided practice (but you don’t have to do them in order!).

Meditation and mindfulness is about so much more than just the moments you do something like listen to this episode. It’s a practice that takes times to integrate, to explore, to address emotional challenges, and fold into our daily lives. I’m so glad you’re starting (or continuing) here with me.

This episode (4/4):

  • Why is it important to focus on body? The body exists in present time - when we focus on the sensations we feel, we become present

  • The body helps us get to know ourselves in a deep and intimate way

  • The body is the first to identify when something is wrong, when we are excited, and more, even before the mind recognizes it

  • Tuning into the body, or listening to the information to the body is telling us, helps us move through the world with more ease and assurance about who and how we are

  • It’s an intimate gift to tune into the body

  • This is a body scan meditation and can be done lying down as well!

  • This practice can be used to help you fall asleep :)
