Mindful Minutes

Today we explore an exercise that supports us to appreciate and savor our relationships and experiences even more deeply. We’ll consider the reality that every experience and relationship will have an end, and use that recognition to practice gratitude and presence for the people and experiences in our lives.

Today’s meditation is a guided open monitoring meditation, where we’ll observe thoughts, emotions, and sensations with curiosity and non-judgment, simply noticing each experience as it arises. We’ll label sensations, thoughts, and feelings (e.g. “thinking” or “hearing”) as a way to stay present without becoming attached. This practice is great for cultivating greater mindfulness and inviting a sense of clarity and relaxation that you can carry into the rest of your day.

In this meditation we'll practice mindfulness with our eyes open. While this may feel different for some, this practice can help us bridge the gap between being aware of the present moment during meditation and being aware of the present moment outside of meditation. For most of us, the real value of meditation is in supporting us to show up better when we're not meditating, and this practice is a way to intentionally bring the mindfulness of meditation into the rest of our day.

Today we’ll practice bringing curiosity to the experience of boredom. Through mindful attention to your breath, body sensations, and thoughts, you’ll practice observing boredom without judgment, and uncovering the layers of complexity within the moment. And by practicing this kind of curiosity during meditation, we’ll strengthen our ability to navigate restlessness or impatience in daily life with greater curiosity and ease.

Today’s meditation is a mindfulness practice through the lens of deep curiosity. We’ll use awareness of our breath, body, and thoughts to explore how curiosity can transform even the simplest experiences and deepen our ability to be fully present. If we can learn to bring greater curiosity to our experiences than even mundane moments can become incredibly interesting, and we can develop an even greater sense of patience.

Today's meditation is dedicated to a detailed body scan. We’ll simply observe and notice what we feel - and by doing so, release tension, cultivate relaxation, and become fully present in the body. By the end, you’ll feel more calm, connected, and at ease.
