Mindfulness of body and breathing. So this practice combined breathing with a wider awareness of our body. Find a nice place where you can focus on this practice for the next five minutes.

You can either sit up, straight, or lay down to do this practice. We'll be paying attention to our breathing and noticing our body remember the mindfulness attitudes, being patient, trusting in the process, not striving to feel any particular way.

Accepting whatever it is, we notice while we're doing this practice come back to your breathing. And begin to observe places where your body is touching a surface. And notice those sensations now notice the sensations in your feet in your lower legs than your knees, in your thighs.

Notice the sensations of your lower back, your upper back, your abdomen, your chest. And all the while remembering If your mind wanders, just notice where come back to your breathing and come back to your body.

Notice your left arm. Notice your right arm. Notice your shoulders and your neck and now noticing your face and your head and now noticing your whole body observing any sensations you're noticing and allowing them to be as they are and now paying attention to observing noticing the air flowing in your nose and out through your mouth as you breathe.

Now moving that attention as you continue to breathe. Now notice your belly moving in and out as you breathe and for the rest of this practice just observing yourself breathing, being aware of their sensations of breathing and all the while noticing your whole body just breathing noticing all the sensations of breathing and being aware of your whole body as you sit or lay here doing this practice and that is the mindfulness of body and breathing.
