Ocean Yoga Meditation

This guided meditation is intended to raise your awareness and ignite curiosity about the world around you. Read it quietly to yourself on the beach before you meditate, have a friend read it to you, or record your voice and play it back to yourself.

In the body lives an ocean
Open into the sea of sensations.
With breath coming and going
waves rise and fall.
Currents of awareness
surface from depths.
Find nourishment for the soul.

Thoughts scatter across
wild mind
shells on a tidal flat.
Sweep away with wave
of breath.

Encrusted,
the mind clings to identity
as barnacles bind to host.
Release into stillness
in fathoms deep.

Bright air fills lungs
with oxygen of teeming life.
Breathe in the salty Source.

Amid changing sands
of circumstance
dune grass holds fast.
Embrace this simple sense
of place.
