Three Centers, A Body Scan Meditation with Sean Fargo

The three centers of belly, heart, and head are often the locus of strong emotions. We experience powerful sensations in these areas, both unpleasant and pleasant. With mindfulness, we can practice feeling whatever we feel in these areas, while softening labels of good or bad, right or wrong.

In this guided meditation, Sean Fargo of Mindfulness Exercises presents a mindful body scan with a particular focus on the three centers of belly, heart and head. The practice encourages a tender presence and a graceful acceptance of all that arises in our experience. 

Please listen in a safe, quiet place where you can be relatively free from distraction. Practice with eyes opened or closed, in a posture that balances comfort with alertness. May this meditation be of benefit to you in your mindfulness journey.
