Mindful Exercise: Noting & Naming

The following is a noting meditation. In this practice, we note or name thoughts, feelings and sensations as they arise. Instead of trying to eliminate these mental formations or clear our mind, we gently acknowledge them and then return our attention to the anchor of our breath. Author & researcher Dan Siegel has described how this simple process of noting or naming triggers neurological processes that can calm and soothe our mind and body.
