Nature of Awareness

Guy Armstrong talks about the nature of awareness; mindfulness and consciousness being different properties. What about the word awareness?

Nature of awareness and body awareness meditations are often underestimated, but they can be invaluable in one’s own journey. Especially when we are experiencing a lot of stress in our daily lives, we can feel disembodied and lost in “head space”, disconnected from ourselves and our surroundings. Full Body Awareness meditation offers a simple way to ground ourselves in the world.

But this is not the only advantage. Because the body has its own inner “knowing” (like when it “knows” that you are uncomfortable in a certain position), by familiarizing ourselves with this kinesthetic sense, not only we will be more grounded in life while, but at the same time we will develop an invaluable tool for being in touch with how our body naturally likes to move and act in the world.
