Mindfulness invites us to observe this present moment just as it is. We practice leaving judgment behind and instead, witness what arises with a spacious sense of openness and allowance. Everything and everything in our field of awareness is welcome. By observing from a grounded, centered and equanimous point of view, we invite insights on the true nature of our mind to arise. In this episode, Mindfulness Exercises founder, Sean Fargo, leads us in a meditation on sensing into this present moment, just as it is. Sean begins by inviting us to connect to our bodies and the support of the ground below us. We then turn our attention to the breath and observe what unfolds. Listen in a quiet place where you can be relatively free from distraction, and connect to the profound quality of presence.
