Five Koshas Meditation

An image of the 5 Koshas or Sheaths. "Annamaya Kosha - Physical Body, Pranamaya Kosha - Energy Body, Manomaya Kosha - Mental Body, Vijnanamaya Kosha - Wisdom Body, Anandamaya Kosha - Bliss Body"

As the not so subtle image shows, we begin with the physical and go inward. Even if you don’t have time to check in with each layer sometimes just remembering that we take care of our physical form because it houses a precious enlivened being (you’re the precious enlivened being) can help our emotions regulate a bit and our stress to come down.
