The following practice was recorded live by John Wineland for his proprietary "2021 Embodied Men's Leadership Training". All rights reserved.
In this short practice, from "2021 Embodied Men's Leadership Training", John leads Masculine practitioners into a meditative practice that focuses on "The One Thing" that if you were to transmute in your life, would give you the fuel to create the life that you want. The practice includes a breathing technique called Wim Hof at the beginning. Please see below for written steps on the breath technique.
For this practice:
You can be seated in a chair or on a zafu or cushion on the floor. The idea is if you are in a chair, to have your feet planted firmly into the ground. If you are on the floor on a cushion, you will want to be sitting in such a way where you can feel your sit bones and sacrum pressing into the floor. John will begin the Wim Hof breath so please read below for the technique:
For the Wim Hof breath, find a point to focus on in the space you are in with your hands resting on your thighs. You will then begin to inhale all the way down into a relaxed belly and wide open throat through a donut shaped mouth, and then exhale with 'Ah' shaped mouth. Be aware of dropping your shoulders, relaxing your thighs and your belly throughout the practice. If you become light headed at any point, you can slow down the pace and the amount of breath you are inhaling.
The focus of "The One Thing" meditation is to feel all the things you want to create and then sense what is getting in the way. Focus on what would need to be transmuted or overcome in order to fuel the life you want to create.
