PREFACE
The following scripts have been written as attachments for a variety of mindfulness
programmes and are still very much in draft form. Please excuse typing errors and poor
grammar as the scripts are still very much in draft form. Please refer to
acknowledgements, and references and guidelines/cautions in the instructions and
workbooks of the programmes. The following scripts are guidelines and suggestions
only. Please excuse the excessive use of verbal content as many different phrases
were used because that which worked for one person may not for another. Adapt the
scripts according to the context and population with whom they may be used. Those
using the scripts may wish to reduce the word content. For the most part the scripts
have been recorded as guided meditations, which can be purchased on CDs from
malhuxter@bigpond.com. Alternatively, many can be downloaded free as MP3 files
from www.buddhanet.net go to “audio”, then to “meditation instructions” then to
“malcolm huxter”.

Some exercises may not suit the individual and some practitioners may choose not to
use the recorded meditations at all. Some meditations may be timely whilst other
meditations may not be timely or be inappropriate. You are advised to consider the
guided meditations offered and utilise those that may be helpful. When the listener feels
confident, they an practice the chosen meditation exercise or exercises without the aid
of a CD.

There are probably hundreds of different ways to meditate. It is usually best to find a
meditation practice that suits and be consistent with it. It is also helpful to experiment
and to combine a variety of different meditation practices if they support each other.
Ultimately, with a broad repertoire, you can utilise practices as and when they are
needed.

Please remember that ultimately perhaps the best meditation guidelines are those that
are silent.

BASIC MINDFULNESS PRACTICES
Coming here now exercise -scripts
Option 1: Go back and think of all the factors related to getting you to come to this
workshop. How you heard about it. The arrangements you made. Then the things you
did this morning to get here. Can you remember what time you woke up and the first
thing you did as you got out of bed. Can you remember your mood, or the first thoughts
you had. Then how you had or didn’t have breakfast. The things you did to get here
today. Then as you entered the room. Your first thoughts and feelings. Were they
pleasant or unpleasant. How did your body feel. What your did how you choose your
chair, what intentions you had etc. Can you remember what you thought just before you
sat down and how your body felt as it touched the chair. Now ask your self, in a manner
that is mildly objective what am feeling right now. What is predominant in my body.
