Reset Meditation: Recovering the Form
In this meditation, I return once again to the basic relaxation form that underpins our contemplative practice.
Beginning with a simple ritual gesture, we settle the body and check in honestly with how we are. We then move through awareness of the body, breath, emotions and thoughts, learning to observe each without judgement or attachment.
By returning regularly to these foundations, we build the “meditative muscle” that helps us find stillness in changing circumstances and reconnect with the stable centre of awareness within.
