Guided Meditation: Listening to Your Body

This week's 5 Percent Club Meditation

Find a comfortable position, and gently close your eyes.

Take a deep breath in, filling your lungs completely.

Hold for a moment, and then slowly exhale, letting go of any tension in your body.

Again, breathe in deeply, feeling the air expand within you.

And breathe out, relaxing further.

Today’s focus is on Listening to Your Body

As you continue to breathe deeply, begin to bring your attention inward, tuning into your body.

Notice how it feels right now, without any judgment.

Just observe.

Our bodies are always communicating with us—offering guidance, asking for rest, signaling when it’s time to move, or when it’s time to be still.

Let yourself honor this communication.

Imagine yourself moving with ease, responding to what your body needs.

Feel the difference between pushing through and flowing in harmony with your own energy.

With every breath, invite in a sense of gentleness and curiosity.

There’s no need to force or resist. Just listen.

Your body knows what it needs to feel balanced, energized, and whole.

Feel the wisdom within you—this intuition that knows the difference between movement that nourishes and movement that depletes.

As you breathe in, ask yourself: What would feel good for my body today?

And as you breathe out, let go of any expectations, allowing yourself to be open to whatever answer comes.

Each day is different. Some days, your body will crave strength and challenge. Other days, it may need gentleness and rest.

Trust that these messages are guiding you towards better health and a deeper connection with yourself.

Now, bring to mind one small, intuitive action you can take today in your movement or self-care routine.

It might be a stretch, a walk, a gentle twist, or even a mindful pause to rest.

Whatever it is, know that this action—no matter how small—honors the wisdom of your body.

Breathe in, feeling gratitude for your body and its unique rhythms.

Breathe out, letting go of any pressure to do more than what feels right.

As you continue to breathe, reflect on these questions:

1. What does my body truly need from me today to feel its best?

2. How can I bring more mindfulness to my movement and self-care?

3. In what ways can I be more gentle and patient with my body’s needs?

Take a few more breaths, letting these thoughts settle within you.

When you’re ready, gently open your eyes, carrying this awareness with you into your day.

Trust yourself. Your body knows the way.

Until we talk tomorrow, move well, stay healthy, be happy, find your purpose and live with passion
