Calm - Ease | Guided Meditation by Thich Nhat Hanh

This is a 20-minute guided meditation offered by Thich Nhat Hanh, part of the Plum Village Essential Meditations in the free Plum Village app: plumvillage.app/
*"Breathing in, I know I am breathing in.*
*Breathing out, I know I am breathing out.*
*In,*
*Out.*
After saying these sentences we can abbreviate them by saying "In" as we breathe in and "Out" as we breathe out. We don't try to control our breathing. Whether our in-breath is long or short, deep or shallow, we just breathe naturally and shine the light of mindfulness on it. When we do this we notice that, in fact, our breathing does become slower and deeper
naturally.
*Breathing in, my in-breath has become deep.*
**Breathing out, my outbreath has become slow. **
*Deep,*
*Slow.*
We don't have to make an extra effort. It just becomes deeper and slower by itself, and we recognize that. Later on, you will notice that you have become calmer and more at ease.
**Breathing in, I calm my body and my mind. **
*Breathing out, I ease everything.*
*Calm,*
*Ease.*
I am not struggling anymore.
"Breathing in, I smile. Breathing out, I release all my worries and anxieties. Smile/release." We are able to smile to ourselves and release all our worries. There are more than three hundred muscles in our face, and when we know how to breathe in and smile, these muscles can relax. This is "mouth yoga." We smile and are able to release all our feelings and emotions.
*Breathing in, I establish myself in the present moment.*
*Breathing out, I know this is a wonderful moment.*
*Present moment,*
*wonderful moment.*
Nothing is more precious than being in the present moment fully alive and aware.
*In, out*
*Deep, slow*
*Calm, ease*
*Smile, release*
*Present moment, wonderful moment.*
If you use this poem during sitting or walking meditation, it can be very nourishing and healing. Practice each line for as long as you wish.

Thich Nhat Hanh has passed to the other side. May he have a smooth passage. For me Thai was and is the most extraordinary person and teacher. His gentle soul and his humor, his wisdom, his vast knowledge and interests, his. poetic creative writing, his love and celebration of life, his devotion to humanity and nature, his deep political conviction and engagement grounded in his biography and ever present - all of this made him for me the most diverse teacher and human being. Thank you for what you gave us and are still giving to us. Dagmar🙏🏼 Namaste

60 straight days doing this meditation before 6am. It is POWERFUL.

[@daves4687]

You still doing this mate? What's your experiences?

[@AlanDelmonte]

@@daves4687 Almost four months now Dave. Straight. The results have been transformational. Let me enumerate some of them: 1. Feeling at least 90% less anxious than before. 2. Also feeling more present, more vibrant, more alive throughtout my day to day activities. 3. Some oh Thich prompts resonste with me some days. For example, I constantly reming myself that "nothing is more important than my peace and joy", and that puts things in perspective. 4. Less toxic cravings in general. Because I feel more present, less need to go out to scavenge for toxic "highs". 5. Happier and satisfied than before. Paying way more attention to smaller things, and constantly feeling the impermanence of it all, and thus, what makes every moment special. This, specially, when hanging out with family. In conclusion, i've named my meditation habit my "mother habit", the only habit that cannot go if having a rough day. And this has made all the difference.

[@daves4687]

@@AlanDelmonte That's great to hear Alan. I've been meditating consistently for about 2 years and tried various meditations but this one has been a real discovery. Can see how the regular practice of it would bring about big changes, great to hear your experience. Have made it my goal to stay consistent for 4 months to judge for myself

[@_arman_]

@@AlanDelmonte Thanks for commiting to yourself and sharing your wins Alan. It supports the rest of us.

[@katemarris3631]

Same here! I have started using this since I developed a temporarily incapacitating illness which has put all normal life on hold. It helps me tremendously. I’m so pleased it really resonates for others too. Exactly what you say Alan. I can imagine every day before 6am would be wonderful. I too always come back to those words “nothing is more important than my peace, my joy”. It is so true! I never ever imagined I’d get into meditation. Life changing and so wish to develop it more and be able to generate stillness and joy at Will, in particular stillness in tricky situations and turbulent emotions.

[@a1m4thah3d]

For years I told myself that I could never meditate because I have such an over active mind. I have Aspergers. Most of the time it feels like I have two inner monologues thinking of two separate things at the same time, always one being the louder primary thought and another become a quieter secondary thought. Shortly before Thay's passing I began to understand mediation and practice it more mindfully, but just barely. Within 24 hours of Thay's passing almost everything "clicked" entirely and I don't understand why. I practice mindfulness everyday and as often as I can. At work, on my couch, in the car, drinking tea. In the beginning I could only meditate for no longer than 3 to 5 minutes before getting frustrated and giving up. Now I find myself not wanting to leave my meditation and always looking forward to the next time I can sit and enjoy another peaceful moment. Thank you so much Thay and Plum Village for truly changing my life!

The most powerful message of this meditation, and one that I keep coming back regularly to, is "nothing is more important than your peace, and your joy; smile, smile to everything, even to your difficulties". After several months of practice, this particular message is coming to me when I am feeling low, stressed, or anxious. It has become a powerful message that gets ingrained deeper and deeper the more i`ve practiced this particular meditation. Yesterday, for example, I was feeling angry about some work issue, and this message suddenly sprung up, and the anger vanished immediately. Practice it. Practice it every day. And you`ll soon be able to identify that peace and that joy that are always there, right beneath the surface, and more importantly, you`ll be able to become that peace, and become that joy, whenever you`re feeling out of sorts.

Thankful,, dear Thai, it is good to be able to listen to your teachings and each time I get to understand more on how to apply it for my circumstances and this helps so much to stop the monkey mind!!! Very very grateful indeed, for all the different aspects your brothers and sisters keep sharing with us, ML Mok💖🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Simplicity means wisdom. And he was full of wisdom, compassion and joy

[@plumvillageapp]

Yes he was, dear Oscar. Thank you for sharing your kind comments today. Our teacher, Thay ("Thay" means teacher), was revered around the world for his pioneering teachings on mindfulness, global ethics and peace. We are very happy to be his continuation and to be able to bring you The Plum Village App, here on KZbin. :) You can also download the app to your phone and have a "Monastery for Your Pocket" to sustain your practice wherever you go :) plumvillage.app
