A gentle, lying-down practice for the moment before the day begins.

Most of us meet our body for the first time each day in those first few minutes after waking, before we move. The shoulders that ache. The back that protests. The first stretch that tells us what kind of day we're going to negotiate with.

This is a meditation for that moment. It's permissive, soft, and meant to be done lying down, before you get up. We move slowly through the body and ask one simple question of each part: what do you need today? You may not get a clear answer. The practice is the asking, not the answer.

Suitable for anyone navigating a changing body, chronic pain, the ordinary aches of getting older, or simply a tired morning. Stay in bed for this one if you can.

Companion episode: Waking Up to Body Betrayal: How to Find Peace in the Pain on the Stillness in the Storms podcast. On the soldiers inside you, the difference between pain and the story you add, and the ancient violin you wake into.
