Present, Precious Moment (Mini Gatha)

By choosing to befriend the movement in our experience, we connect to a greater sense of presence, ease, and tranquility amidst whatever arises. So long as we are alive, we are never in complete stillness. Sit back and watch the movement that flows throughout your experience, including the movement of the mind, environment, emotions, and body. This short arrival meditation is a practice of noticing and letting be. By watching and letting movement flow, we can rest into a sense of equanimity and poise amidst whatever arises, feeling wakeful and alive. This meditation is transferrable as a mindfulness practice you can do throughout your day. From my heart to yours. In kindness, Maria. www.mariasperduto.com
