Be forewarned, there is a ten-second delay in the beginning of the episode...
In the first satipatthana on the body (kaya-sati) the Buddha begins with mindfulness of breathing (See Episode 4 for this aspect of practice). He then goes on to discuss mindfulness of body postures and activities, before offering a contemplation on the various parts of the body. Thich Nhat Hanh created an approach to this that brings in the "Inner Smile" meditation from Chinese Qi Gong that can help heal our relationship to the body, cultivating greater appreciation and gratitude.
