Sitting Meditation Mindfulness Practice

Recovery from Coercive Control

Saira has created these mindfulness practices for you to try.

You're best starting with the shorter ones. And just bring them in a few times a week.

It can be hard breaking the patterns of our lives to begin spending time doing these exercises, but it is worth the trouble.

Your mind is going to wander during these practices. Don't worry, it's what minds do and the work with mindfulness is when you notice your mind is drifting and bring it back to the present and the practice.

Some discomfort and difficulty is expected because it is work. You are changing your neurological pathways and working on your attentional system, so bear that in mind when you're trying to decide if this is something that's going work for you.

These practices from Saira are all trauma sensitive.

We hope this podcast has been helpful in your journey to understanding what has happened to you and provided some new insights and perhaps, hopefully even helped you feel less alone.

Any feedback, helpful suggestions or ideas on what you would like to hear more about are very welcome.
