Our guest this week is also September's Teacher of the Month, Dr. Mark Bertin.
He offers a unique practice that uses sensory awareness and gentle movement to help meet moments of uncertainty. This meditation is designed to help you:
Practice meeting yourself with patience and attentive care
Connect with your body as both a way to calm yourself and as a way to get clarifying information about the situation you're facing
Engage skillfully with the discomfort of uncertainty, rather than defaulting to reactivity, anger, or fear

Life is inherently changeable and uncertain, and our resilience relies on how we relate to that fact. The good news is that these are skills we can build. To learn more, check out these resources from Mindful.org:
