In this deep relaxation, Brother Dao Hanh guides us in bringing our awareness to our breath - noticing how our lungs expand and contract; our abdomen rising and falling. We can slowly start to pay attention to our body and its contact with the ground, releasing tension and weight as we allow the earth to hold and support us. In this moment, we don't have to hold on - to our plans, worries, anxieties or fears. We don’t have to achieve or change anything as we bring our awareness back to our breathing and allow our body to relax.
This relaxation does contain singing and the sound of the bell near the beginning and end.
