About this meditation
Discovering novelty in the familiar: recovering your capacity for surprise in daily life.
Full transcript
Here you are, in this moment, with your body and your breath.
Notice the weight of your body where it meets the ground, and rest.
Feel your feet touching the ground, the pressure at each point of contact.
Imagine yourself walking through your neighborhood, noticing every detail, every sound, every scent.
Let your shoulders relax, your jaw soften, and your breath deepen.
Remember that novelty and surprise are present in every moment, in every experience.
When you leave this meditation, you might bring a small plant with you, care for it, and watch it grow.
Feel your fingers, your feet, your whole body, and open your eyes when you are ready.
