Mindfulness Session #1: Awareness
Practicing sustained attentional contact with our body involves:
• assuming a healthy, stable sitting posture,
• letting go of muscle tension,
• observing the feel of the breath,
• resting in stillness.
Noticing each time the focus of attention drifts from physical contact with present experience, we let go of words & images, and return to reality - to the tangible experience of the present moment. Awareness increasingly stabilizes as we keep noticing when we've drifted, and keep returning to awareness.
If you search (top left) for "awareness" within this blog, you will find at least 19 that deal with this fundamentally important topic.
