Standing Meditation: Practising Presence in Any Moment

from The Daily Meditation with Brother Richard

In this meditation, I guide you through a simple practice of meditating while standing, showing how awareness can be cultivated in any moment of the day.This practice offers an alternative to seated meditation, helping you bring presence and stability into everyday situations, whether you are at work, at home or on the move.We begin by finding a comfortable standing position, allowing the body to settle and balance naturally. From here, awareness moves through different parts of the body, from the feet and legs to the spine, shoulders and face.Through gentle movement and attention, you are invited to release tension, improve balance and deepen your connection to the body.As awareness returns to the breath, the practice becomes one of simply being present, grounded and steady, wherever you are.This meditation offers a moment of calm, whether you are pausing during the day or integrating awareness into daily activity, helping you feel more balanced, present and at ease.This meditation supports grounding, posture awareness and present moment focus.Chapters: 00:00 – Introduction 00:13 – Meditating while standing 00:38 – Meditation in daily life 01:05 – Preparing to stand 01:30 – The bell 01:44 – Finding your position 02:03 – Support and balance 02:38 – Weight distribution 03:28 – Awareness of the feet 04:28 – Movement through the feet 05:18 – Unlocking the knees 06:33 – Awareness of the pelvis 07:33 – Tailbone and spine 08:03 – Releasing the shoulders 08:33 – Awareness of the face 09:23 – The belly and the breath 12:42 – Closing bell Hosted on Acast.
