A–UDIT

Begin to assess your felt sensations and identify their messages.

Our sensations can manifest as tension, contraction, pain, elevated heart rate, shortness of breath, buzzing and other felt experiences. As these sensations are identified, we can begin to ask the body what it’s been holding, what it needs, what it’s trying to alert us to, and how the energy and emotion it’s storing can be acknowledged, processed and released. This is how we learn to reclaim our emotional, physical and psychological state.

Prepare yourself for this meditation by setting yourself up in a private, quiet and comfortable space. If possible, dim the lights or place something like a sleep mask or eye pillow over your eyes.

Make note of anything that stood out or called out to you during the meditation. Messages, memories, sensations, visions, feelings, etc.

Once sensations are identified, we can begin to ask the body what it’s been holding, what it needs, what it’s trying to alert us to, and how the energy & emotion it’s storing can be acknowledged, processed and released.
