Increasing Love and Acceptance for Ourselves Visualisation

Mindfulness Meditation
by Breast Cancer Haven | This guided mindfulness meditation, firstly bringing a gentle attention to your position and posture, the support being given to your body and the body as a whole. Then we bring awareness to thoughts coming and going, emotions that are present, physical sensations as they arise and pass away moment to moment. You then bring your awareness the natural sensations in the body of your breathing as it happens. You explore the way the mind naturally wanders as it does for everyone and how you can kindly bring the mind back to an anchor such as sensations in the body of your breathing to anchor yourself again and again in the present moment. You explore the awareness of sounds, thoughts and physical sensations in the present moment, meeting them with kindness and curiosity, coming back to the awareness of the breath in the body when the mind drifts off. This practice helps to relax, calm and re-energises you. It can help relieve stress and difficult emotional states as well as pain in the body.
