In this neuroscience-inspired total relaxation, guided by Brother Phap Linh, we bring awareness to different parts of our body, focusing particular attention on regions with greater sensory and motor nerves to maximise concentration.
If there is any pain or tension, we notice with gentleness and without judgement, inviting our body to release what it feels ready to. As we are guided to accept our physical experience fully as it is in this moment, we can become aware of our breathing and all the points of contact with the earth, noticing its stability and capacity to hold us.
This deep relaxation includes instrumental (cello / strings) accompaniment, which begins approximately 33 minutes into the recording.
This relaxation does not contain any bells.
