Sensing into Safety Meditation, with Sean Fargo

With meditation we can practice nurturing and growing a sense of safety for ever-present access to ease. Each of us has a memory, somewhere, of a safe place where we feel at ease, balanced, and welcomed to take refuge. This memory is stored in the body. We might feel a sense of safety in the belly, the heart or the hands, for example. 

In this episode, Mindfulness Exercises founder, Sean Fargo, leads us in a meditation on sensing into safety. The practice begins with an invitation to check in and observe how the body is feeling in this present moment. Sean then gently invites us to notice where we feel a sense of safety. By placing our mindful attention in that space, we invite the sensation of safety to grow.
