You Matter: Nurturing Self-Care through Mindful Attention

In Rena’s guided somatic mindfulness practice, we start with a few deep breaths, allowing our breath to find its natural rhythm. As we delve into our body’s sensations, we’re encouraged to recall the recent days, events, and interactions of Purim, noticing how our bodies respond without judgment. Rena prompts us to focus on any areas of tension or discomfort, giving them our full attention and care. We explore these sensations, perhaps giving them metaphorical shapes or colors, acknowledging their significance in the present moment. Throughout the practice, we cultivate a deep sense of connection and care for our bodies, recognizing their importance as our vessels in this world. With our breath, we reaffirm our commitment to nurturing and honoring our bodies’ needs, knowing we can return to this practice whenever necessary.
