Welcome to your first meditation practice. Find a quiet, comfortable space where you can sit or lay down without disturbances. And let's begin. Close your eyes gently, take a deep breath in through your nose, feeling your chest and belly rise, exhale slowly through your mouth, releasing any tension, breathe naturally, focusing on the sensation of each breath. Now bring your awareness to your body, start from your toes, noticing any sensation without judgment, gradually move your attention upward, exploring each body part, simply observe without reacting thoughts might arise. That's all right. When you notice a thought, acknowledge it without judgment and let it go like a passing cloud, return your focus to your breath, use your breath as an anchor to the present moment. If thoughts pull you away, gently, guide your attention back to your breath. Inhale, excel a steady rhythm. That is your breath. Embrace this moment of stillness. Let go of the need to achieve or do anything allow yourself to just be without expectation, filling your lungs with air one more time and exhaling through your mouth. Take a moment to appreciate yourself. You've decided to dedicate time to your well being. Feel this gratitude of self-care and tranquility. And when you're ready, slowly open your eyes, take a moment to reorient yourself to your surroundings. Congratulations on completing your first meditation. Remember, meditation is a practice with each session. You're nurturing mindfulness, start with short sessions like this and gradually extend the time. Enjoy the growing calmness and presence in your daily life.
