In this second class, we will deepen our practice of connecting with the physical body through a beautiful and transformative meditation technique: caressing meditation. This practice not only strengthens your ability to keep attention in the body but also nurtures profound relaxation, self-love, and a heightened sense of well-being.

The Science and Magic of Caressing Meditation

Caressing meditation is a gentle, intentional practice that involves caressing your own body with love and presence. Here is what makes it so powerful:

• Training Attention in the Body: By engaging your sense of touch, this practice helps you anchor your awareness firmly in the physical sensations of your body. This continues the process of shifting attention away from the mind and into the present moment.

• Releasing Oxytocin: Gentle, loving touch stimulates the release of oxytocin, often referred to as the “love hormone.” This hormone plays a key role in reducing stress and anxiety, promoting relaxation, and cultivating a state of inner peace.

• Awakening Self-Love: Caressing meditation is an act of kindness and tenderness toward yourself. It helps you reconnect with your body as a sacred vessel of life and love, building a deeper relationship with yourself.

• Enhancing Libido and Vitality: The practice activates the body’s natural energy centers, awakening sensuality and vitality. This is not about external desires but about cultivating a deep, loving connection with your own life force.

Preparing for the Meditation

Before we begin, find a quiet space where you will not be disturbed. Wear comfortable clothing or, if you feel safe, practice this meditation with bare skin to enhance the tactile experience. Have a warm blanket or a soft surface nearby to ensure your comfort.

Reflect and Integrate

After the meditation, take a moment to reflect on your experience:

• How did it feel to connect with your body in this way?

• Did you notice any shifts in your mood or energy?

Write down your thoughts or simply sit with them quietly. This practice is a loving gift to yourself, and the more you engage with it, the more transformative it can become.
