#76. Meditation Monday: A Moving Meditation When Feeling Overwhelmed

A moving meditation is a form of meditation that involves a specific motion as a way to clear the mind and connect with the present moment. Instead of focusing solely on the breath or a mantra, the meditator brings their awareness to the sensations and movements of their body, which can help bring a greater sense of focus and relaxation. Some people find that movement-based meditation helps them access a deeper state of mindfulness than seated meditation.

This week's meditation is a guided visualization introducing us to shadow work. A shadow work meditation is a type of guided meditation that focuses on exploring the parts of ourselves that we may usually keep hidden or repress. It is a deep and introspective practice that allows us to face those aspects of ourselves that we may deem as negative, shameful or undesirable. By doing shadow work, we allow ourselves to develop a more profound sense of self-awareness and better understand the complexity of our emotions and behaviors, allowing us to grow, heal, and achieve greater personal fulfillment.
