The Eye of the Hurricane Metaphore (Free Download)

Description

This Mindfulness practice offers a way for clients to disengage from the hectic world around them by focussing attention inward. In mindfulness practice, clients learn to use their breath as a vehicle create more inner peace.

By connecting to their breath, clients can disconnect from upsetting thoughts, emotions and other stressors that disrupt inner peace. However, like many abstract concepts, the concept of inner peace may be difficult for clients to understand.

In this meditation, the concept of inner peace is clarified by using a hurricane as a metaphor. Within the strong, turbulent winds of a hurricane is the eye, a calm, quiet, centered space. The goal is to help clients to explore inner peace by using their breath to become like the eye of the hurricane; the silent part of themselves that can notice difficult or challenging
experiences without getting caught up and carried away by them.

Practicing mindfulness regularly if not daily has been shown to be helpful in alleviating stress and finding balance in life.

This is an easy to do, 10 min process that can be done easily in any environment.
