A Meditation for Sensory Overload | Reset your Eyes & Ears |A Meditation to Reset your Eyes & Ears |
_________________________________________________________
Your eyes and ears are going to thank you for this meditation practice. 

This is a one my latest favorite meditation techniques based off a yoga therapy practice I learned during my training. It is the best for helping me  reset my eyes and ears when I am experiencing dreaded sensory overload....You know when you've been looking at your cellphone screen for a billion hours and your eyes feel like they are 1000 years old...ooo and when  your ears feel polluted from the construction work sounds of clanking and banging that have been going on next door since the crack of dawn.....yah sensory overload is no joke and is very much a real thing that these days is almost impossible to escape. 

But I have a new technique for you that can help in reseting the   icky effects that sensory overload leaves on our eyes and ears: 

1. First - Find a dark and quiet place to rest comfortably... I highly suggest you lay down. - I know, I know, I am sitting in the video, but that's because my double-chin shows when I lay down and I didn't want that in the video lol  (just trying to be real here). 

2. Block out the light by using both of your hands, make sure no light seeps in.

3. Plug your ears  with your thumbs (apply gently with only enough pressure so that you can barely hear) 
 
4.  Relax your shoulders, you don't have to keep your elbows up like I do in the video, I only did that so you could get the idea of the hands blocking light and sound. 

5. Breathe slowly through your nose. 

........Also, I know this meditation is short, but you can always do it for longer....I mean,  imagine doing this for 10-20 minutes and how much more reset you'd feel?!?? 

....& Make sure to take a moment afterward to notice any changes, especially within your eyes and ears.....I'm telling you your eyes and ears are gonna feel so reset after this one! 

Drop me a comment to let me know how it worked for you, or if you have any questions, comments, feedback, suggestion, and requests for other meditations 

Reset and Refreshed!

Enjoy and be well, 
Dorothy
