Harmonious Awakening: Breathing & Presence Practices From Dennis Lewis

This sitting explores the relationship of thinking (through intentional counting), attention, and body sensation. And it continues the exploration of the freedom from habitual thoughts and reactive emotions that emerges when we are touch with a more-conscious and complete sensation of our body. If you haven’t yet worked with the first two guided sittings, I suggest you do so before beginning this one. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/denlew/support

This is the first of a series of sittings designed to help support the inward journey of awakening to who or what we truly are. This journey is no mere journey of the mind or imagination. It is rather a journey into the energetic dimensions of our own wholeness. It is through sittings such as the ones I offer here that we can begin to develop the inner attention necessary to see ourselves as we are, and can begin to understand how the conscious sensation of the body supports the expansion of consciousness in our lives. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/denlew/support
