In the silence and the stillness, let your awareness sweep through your body and just

notice if there's any obvious areas of tightness, of tension.

The sense what wants to let go a little right now, you might sense a little bit of a loosening,

or softening around the shoulders, perhaps a melting or a dissolving sensation inside the shoulders,

perhaps a softening of the hands.

Let there be an openness to the chest.

Be a softening at the belly, relaxing through the pelvic region.

Aware of the places of contact, with your hands touch each other, the thighs, the legs.

Your bottom touches the cushion or the chair, feet touching the floor.

Just aware of the sense of fresher and warmth.

If you could feel your whole body from the inside out, just sensing the tingling and the vibrating,

the heat or the cool.

A soft play of sensation, including sound and your awareness,

close and sounds in the room, the appearing and the disappearing of these words,

the spaces between sounds, and the thing to the more distant sounds.

Listening not just with your ears, but with your whole awareness, just letting sounds

wash through, noticing with listening that there's nothing to do.

It's a pure and are known spontaneously by awareness.

Notice the edgeless space that all sounds are appearing in.

It's relaxing into that openness that's listening.
