Meditation Script:
Seated or lying down, comfortable and alert, breathe in. As you breathe in, what
aromas arrive in through your nostrils. Can you name the scents? The smell of
your breath. The smell of your skin. The aromas of lotion or oils or sweat. Observe
the heaviness or lightness of scent. Citrus, bright and lively, or subtle and
soft. Floral scents, sweet and fragrant, or herbal and fresh. Earthy scents,
dry and dusty, or damp and rich. Ocean scents, salty sea, minerals, metal. Do you
smell food or the lingering scents of cooking. Savory scents. Spicy scents. The
smell of something fried lingering on the air or something fresh. Butter or
oil. Perhaps you observe the smell of books or paper, dusty or sterile. Harsh
scents. Soft scents. As you breath in, observing the scents around you, notice
any memories that arrive. As memories come up, for a moment engaging in imagination
and all of your senses. What do you see? Who do you see? What sounds do you hear?
What can you touch? What sensations arrive in the body? What emotions come up? What
do you smell? Imagine engaging in the experiences associated with that memory,
paying close attention to the scents in the present moment that are bringing
you back, for a moment, to the past. Continue to observe the scents, letting go
of the memory. Simply breathing, now attaching no memory or value judgement to the
aromas you’re breathing in. Breathe in. Breathe out. Rest here, or softly
opening your eyes, breathing into your day.
