Grounding into Presence with Preparing for Shabbos In Rena's guided somatic mindfulness practice, we start by taking a few deep breaths, inviting our breath to signal to all of us that it's okay to relax and let go. We focus on sensing our bodies and the support of the surface beneath us, acknowledging everything that needs to happen between now and later. We lean into triggers that prompt us to drift into autopilot, allowing ourselves to ground into the present moment. We push our feet into the floor, feel our pulse, and gently massage our face and arms, connecting with ourselves in the here and now. We take a moment to check in with ourselves, asking what we need to move forward with a sense of peace and inner tranquility. With each practice, we reinforce our ability to stay connected to ourselves, no matter the circumstances.
