OM044: New Year Guided Meditation on Mindful Presence

New Year Guided Meditation

In the spirit of the New Year, here is a new year guided meditation on mindful presence.

Mindfulness is all about paying attention. We all have these wonderful and rich organs of perception. Our senses.

Mindfulness is about getting out of your head and into your world and we do that through paying attention. Your five senses are your probes and your receptors.

They are constantly receiving information from within and without.

I think of paying attention as a sort of prayer to the community of life and being.

Mindfulness is the act of waking up to life again and again. It allows you to attend to your life, your relationships, and your world with all your faculties.

This guided meditation will bring you into a state of deep ease and presence. If you find you get lost, come back to the inner warmth or to listening or to complete presence. Allow yourself to be here, relaxed and without judgement. Savor this space of inner quiet and stillness.

You can think of this guided meditation as a moment of deep pause. It’s like the eye of a storm, filled with perfect peace and quiet. At a certain point in this guided meditation, towards the end, I’m going to ask you to pause for a moment, and think about this question.

How are you going to be more mindful in the year to come? What will you do? You don’t need to answer this question right away. Instead, allow yourself to sit with the question.

Enjoy!

    Being mindfulness is as important as our live. Thanks for the great article.

    My experience teaches me mindfulness comes with observation. Be curious about everything happned. Just my cents of thought.

      Hi Leong,
      Thanks so much. Yes, I certainly agree. Mindfulness and observation go hand in hand, fueled by interest and curiosity about the world. That’s my experience too.
