Today's practice is all about bringing self-compassion, love, and gratitude to areas in the body that are experienced as unsafe, painful, distressed, or upsetting. When we tap into self-compassion, it can help us to relax, feel more safe, and improve our relationship with our body.

A huge bonus of this practice is that it helps kick self-criticism in the butt!

In this focused meditation, we are going to tap into the power of mantra and focus in order to counter stress and divert the mind from repetitive negative thoughts (ruminations). Added bonus, this mindfulness practice can also help improve concentration and improve well-being overall.

Are you able to notice a thought, but not connect into the sensations in your body? Maybe you’re often overwhelmed with somatic sensations, but can’t seem to identify or track the origin? Do you struggle to connect to or name your feelings?

Yeah – that’s pretty common for survivors of abuse!

The good news is … practices like this one can absolutely help you connect your head, heart, and body so you will feel more attuned to yourself and better able to stay regulated.

Do you ever get so absorbed in anxious or negative thoughts that you feel like you’re on a runaway train that you can’t get off?

In today’s practice, we explore cognitive diffusion, which allows us to observe our thoughts and allow them to flow through and exit the mind so that we don’t fuse to the thought, which is what can lead to rumination, anxiety, dysregulation and suffering.

Cultivating moment to moment awareness of the body, reducing autonomic arousal (freeze, flight, fight), and improving proprioceptive awareness (which is our sense of balance) is the name of the game in this training.

It’s all about breaking things down into micro movements.

Clear some space (or better yet get outside!) and get ready!
