This is a mindfulness breathing meditation from Rebecca Ryan author of Mindfulness for Mothers. I love the simplicity of this practice and find it so effective when I need to just slow down and become present. I have a copy of Mindfulness for Mothers and highly recommend it. My gratitude to Rebecca for giving me permission to share this meditation with you.
Inhaling, unfurl your hands.
Pause
Exhaling, close your hands
Pause
Watch your hands or close your eyes, listen to your breathing.
Be. Here. Now.
Repeat this for as long as you feel you need or are able to.
