Just this breath coming in, just this breath going out. Just this moment. Just this breath. Just this moment. Just this breath, reminding yourself that the breath, or any part of your body that feels grounding, is always available as an anchor to come back to this present moment, right here, right now.
Dr. Saira Khan, a psychologist and human rights advocate, brings her deep understanding of coercive control to this enlightening episode. In 'Sitting With Breath Mindfulness Practice', she introduces a practical mindfulness exercise aimed at helping listeners heal from the trauma of coercive control. Dr. Khan's approach is both professional and personal, drawing from her own experiences and extensive expertise in mental health.
The episode focuses on a simple yet powerful practice: sitting comfortably and tuning into the physical sensations associated with breathing. As your mind inevitably wanders, Dr. Khan encourages you to gently bring it back to the present moment. This exercise isn't just about relaxation; it's about rewiring your brain and finding a sense of control and safety amidst the chaos of trauma. Dr. Khan acknowledges that this practice can be challenging, but reassures listeners that the effort is worthwhile.
By regularly engaging in these mindfulness exercises, you can start to reshape your neurological pathways and enhance your attentional system. This episode is perfect for anyone who has experienced coercive control or is interested in the therapeutic benefits of mindfulness. It's a gentle yet profound invitation to begin your journey towards healing and recovery.
