This easy, brief practice helps you shift from a reactive “thinking mode” to a mindful “being mode”. It involves 3 steps (AGE acronym): 1) Acknowledging current thoughts and feelings, 2) Gathering attention on the breath, and 3) Expanding awareness to the entire body.
This meditation analogizes sounds to your thoughts, helping you understand that both are impermanent: they bose arise, linger, and resolve on their own. This practice encourages you to tune into your thoughts as you would with a sound, and observe them without reaction to foster mindful freedom.
