The Mind-Body Connection Meditation

  • Summary

  • When I first began meditating seriously, I found that over time, I became more and more connected to my body. I became more aware of how I felt. Once I had became more familiar with my physical sensations I found it easier to identify my emotions. This connection has a scientific name which is Interoception. Interoception is the source of a great deal of scientific study at the moment, much of it in connection with mindfulness. I found that when I sat and meditated, once I silenced my thoughts, I could experience my predominant emotion directly as a sensation in my body. This was uncomfortable, but not immensely so. I discovered a number of emotional resilience techniques which caused my negative emotions to subside and finally to dissolve completely. These techniques became valuable life tools and the process of releasing my negative emotions became, and remains, part of my daily experience. When I began teaching meditation, I discovered that many of my students were meditating to help them understand their inner experiences and learn how to find happiness despite the painful complexity of thoughts, emotions and behaviours. I have since learned that this connection to the emotions into the body is one of the foundations of meditation and in fact it is the first element of meditation that we experience when we sit and do a body scan or focus on the breath or any other body-based meditation. I taught this meditation to experience this connection... This class is extracted from The Meditation Course which you can learn more about or subscribe to here: https://www.meditationcourse.live/
