N.O.W.: BRIEF MEDITATION

N.O.W. is a helpful practice because we so often find ourselves standing in line or waiting. It can be used as a brief meditation any time. It is a helpful way to interrupt annoyance or frustration when waiting or at least bring it down a notch. I often use this meditation when I am standing in line at the grocery store or coffee shop or am on hold on the phone.

N.O.W.

A #Brief #Meditation: N.O.W.

A brief meditation is one that you can use many times in a day.

Coming into the present moment.

N: Notice when you are on a #brain #highway, or feel stressed, rushed or ‘off’. Notice what it is you are experiencing.

O: Open to the #breath. Put your attention on the breath for a minute. Notice the in breath and the out breath from the belly or the nostrils.

W: Welcome the connection to the #body. Mindfully experience the breath and the body, the breath - body, and connect to the present moment.

Practice N. O. W. as often as you need for brief or long periods.
