Aloha. Welcome to the Hawaiian Mediation Series. Let’s get started: Please find a comfortable seated position. Focus on your breath, breathe in, breathe out. Breathe in, breathe out. As you continue your calming breath, feel your body relax into your seated position.
This is a breathing technique that is called Piko Piko. While it is uncertain as to how old this technique is, it does embody the Hawaiian ideal that the energy flows to where the thought is focused.
In this meditation, we are going to use the Ha and expand it into Piko Piko. Please stop if you feel lightheaded. Your breathing and awareness will be in this rhythm: Breathe in through your nose, for two counts. As you are breathing in, focus your attention on the crown of your head. This is the area on the back of your head that begins to curve down and ends roughly just above where the curve begins to flatten. Your breath out, will be for four counts, through your mouth. The sound you will make on the exhale, through your mouth, is Haaaaaa. As you are breathe out, focus you awareness on your abdomen.
As we walk through the breathing steps this is how the instructions will continue: Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Be mindful that on the breath in, you are focusing your awareness on the crown of your head, and that on the breath out, you are focusing your awareness on the abdomen. Your thoughts, feelings, and images will continue to come to you. Acknowledge them and allow them to flow past you, as we continue, for ten breaths:
Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa.
Be mindful that on the breath in, you are focusing your awareness on the crown of your head, and that on the breath out, you are focusing your awareness on the abdomen, as we continue, for ten breaths:
Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa.
Be mindful that on the breath in, you are focusing your awareness on the crown of your head and that on the breath out, you are focusing your awareness on the abdomen. Please stop if you feel lightheaded. On this final round, we will continue for 50 breathes:
Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa.
Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa.
Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa.
Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa.
Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa. Breathe in. Haaaaaaaaa.
Slowly bring your breathing back to two counts in through your nose and two counts out through your nose. Your normal breath will me a nice balanced ratio of two by two. Slowly bring movement back to your body, while being mindful of how your body and mind feel. Focus on the refreshing calmness, that you have brought to yourself, and carry this, with you, as you continue on your path. Mahalo.
