This is a simple meditation technique that you can try when it's actually sunny outside. It's a bit different than other meditations I've tried in the past, but it's a good one to try when the sun is out and warming your body.

00:00:00.000 Greetings my esteemed audience. I am checking in from paradise aka Sweden in May. Now I'm
00:00:07.600 checking in with a good meditation technique that you can try. This is the perfect time of year
00:00:13.020 to try it. So May, early June, something like that depending on where you are. So
00:00:17.860 when life is blooming back again. So this is even easier for me now what I'm about to do,
00:00:24.540 what I'm about to tell you. So we're focusing on gratitude, breathing in the sun and I'm
00:00:30.400 supremely grateful because we've had probably the longest winter I have ever experienced and then
00:00:36.660 we have over this last few weeks had pure sunshine every day. It's been absolutely magical. So I feel
00:00:44.500 a great level of gratitude for that. And now as you can see I'm checking in here. I'm sitting on my
00:00:49.820 nice meditation pillow. Palms up facing the sun, breathing in the sun, focusing on the sun
00:00:56.620 warming my skin, feeling gratitude towards that. So you go into the meditation by simply breathing in
00:01:04.480 the sun. You can also go in to the meditation with some Nadi Shudana which I made a video on
00:01:10.100 a while back. Alternate nostril breathing as you see here. You can go into the meditation there and
00:01:16.460 then when you have loaded up, you've charged up your body via your breath then you can simply breathe
00:01:22.600 normally. So light, nice, deep breaths and just feel nature all around you. So keep focusing on
00:01:30.240 the sunshine as it warms your body. Feel the wind on your skin. Listen to the birds. Listen to any other
00:01:37.520 sound you might hear and just be in this particular moment. As Wim Hof says, he says, be in this very
00:01:44.700 moment. So that is basically what we're doing here. Simply going out in nature, feeling life,
00:01:50.960 feeling mother nature, feeling God all around you, absorbing that energy so you can have in
00:01:56.220 the gym or whichever other activity you might have. So you breathe in as much life as possible starting
00:02:02.720 with the sun. Of course you should do this meditation when it's actually sunny outside. There are different
00:02:09.320 meditation techniques you can do if the sun isn't up. You can still focus on the wind and stuff like
00:02:14.860 that. But of course it does become more pleasant when the sun is up and gently caressing your skin.
00:02:24.020 So do try it out. The technique is beautiful in its simplicity. Simply focus on your body. Focus on
00:02:31.800 how the sun makes you feel, how the wind makes you feel, how the birds make you feel. So at this
00:02:38.240 particular place I'm checking in from right here, I often hear a lot of birds. So you can try to listen
00:02:43.560 to those. You can listen to the wind as well. So instead of letting your thoughts wander to what you
00:02:49.900 need to do when you get back home or what you need to do tomorrow or what sort of stress might torment
00:02:55.520 you, just focus on the here and now. Focus on the divine blessing of being alive. Feel gratitude
00:03:01.980 for being alive. Feel gratitude for having two working lungs. Feel gratitude for having the
00:03:08.180 opportunity to sit in nature. Because you know, some people they don't have this luxury that you
00:03:14.400 might have or that I have right now. That you can simply go out in nature to breathe, to just live,
00:03:19.160 to just be. So many different ways to feel gratitude. And of course if you feel gratitude you activate
00:03:24.740 your heart chakra. Which is very good to do for optimal health and happiness.
00:03:32.080 Now you can of course also gently wander about if you have a nice beautiful landscape. So you see I
00:03:37.640 have a quite a nice horizon here. Nothing that compares to a mountain landscape of course. But
00:03:42.160 it's a very pleasant and gentle place here. And you might notice that I am barefoot as well. And I do
00:03:48.280 this to ground max. I'm grounding. And that has been shown via the science. You can listen to the
00:03:54.480 science. Or you can listen to common sense. The esoteric knowledge of Mother Earth. So if you go
00:04:00.760 barefoot on Earth. It's good for your body. It's good for your spirit as well. So that's something
00:04:06.000 you can think of whenever you have the opportunity to take off your shoes and simply walk about on
00:04:12.260 the beautiful face of Mother Earth. So you can call this sun worship. You can call this worship of
00:04:19.600 Mother Earth. And then perhaps you're a Christian and say that you only worship God. But these are
00:04:24.480 God's creations also. So it's all good. And of course I'm not a Christian. I'm a pagan. So for me there's
00:04:30.320 no issue with worshipping all of these entities. But that's simply what you can do. And keep in mind
00:04:35.580 the gratitude you feel towards all of these things. Now since we are on the topic I want to quote from
00:04:42.620 the Temple of Cosmos that I wrote a book review on a while back. So I'm quoting now from an inscription
00:04:49.020 of the Battle of Kadesh. I quote
00:04:52.500 I was like Ra when he rises at dawn. My rays they burned the rebels' bodies. They called out to
00:04:59.780 another. Beware. Take care. Don't approach him. Anyone who goes to approach him. Fire's breath comes to
00:05:06.700 burn his body. Thereupon they stood at a distance kissing the ground before me.
00:05:14.060 Now I will quote the legendary Sufi mystic Rumi. And I quote
00:05:19.200 As you breathe in, breathe in to the felt awareness of your entire body. As you breathe out, feel your
00:05:25.480 whole body exhaling. As you breathe in, let yourself feel every single cell in your body. As you breathe
00:05:32.180 out, let yourself dissolve and merge into the outer world. Feel your gratitude for being alive. For
00:05:38.660 having life given to you so freely each and every moment in the air you breathe. Gratitude towards
00:05:44.100 the world is the natural feeling state of someone in love. So do try it out and remember that not
00:05:50.820 everyone is so fortunate as to be able to go out in nature to absorb the divine sunlight to be imbued by
00:05:58.660 the power of the sun and the blessings of mother earth. And if you do try it, I can almost guarantee
00:06:05.780 that you will feel a great sense of joy if you truly connect with the outer world. Now, do check out
00:06:12.500 all the links in the description box below. Do read Dauntless. Do read Demigod Mentality. Thank you for
00:06:19.140 watching and thank you for your support. I'll see you in the next video. XOXO BOOM!
