Hi, welcome back to
your Daily Mindfulness.
Today, we're going to talk
about changing our patterns.
So you might have noticed that you
have some patterns that you keep
falling into over and over again.
And it may be frustrating.
I
t's first important to remember
that many of these patterns were
created during times when we needed
control predictability or safety.
Often when we were very young
and they continue to this day.
So what do we do?
Well when the pattern arises, take a
breath, smile at it, reminded that you're
safe and say instead of our usual routine,
can you help me try something new?
And do you see how this is different?
Instead of fighting the energy
of this recurring pattern, you're
meeting it, you're relaxing into it.
You're even appreciating
it and then redirecting it.
As I said, we have to remember that
this was put in place by a younger
version of ourselves often, much
younger, and it was trying to help.
It's still thinks it's trying to help.
It has a positive intention, but it's
just no longer relevant to the context.
Instead of getting mad at the
pattern, start by appreciating it.
You can even visualize the pattern
as a younger version of yourself.
See that it's doing its best to
protect you, to make you feel better.
And then have a conversation from the
newer, more resource part of you asking
how all of you can work in service of the
new goal, who you're trying to become.
Remember change is not
about fighting who you are.
It's about creating a collaborative
relationship with the many dimensions
of your humanness, helping you
grow into who you're becoming.
Thank you for your practice.
I'll talk to you in the
meditation and take care.

Vidyamala’s tips on catching anger as it’s happening or about to happen are great - clear, practical, and doable.

The little talks before the meditations are priceless. It's like I've found my peeps. The topics, the quotes, the goals—it all makes so much sense to me, things I want to be thinking and learning about. Most importantly, the meditations are kindness-centered, which I love. It feels like a new way to approach meditation.

Incredible, easy to navigate app. I would highly recommend this app to anyone who wishes to reduce stress and anxiety or simply as an aid to improve overall mental health.

So calm and soothing. I love the new bundle with Kelly Boys, she’s brilliant!

Better than Headspace. I've had the paid version of both apps, and I must say I enjoy this one better.
- Gina, Plus+ Member
I am very new to meditation, and am so happy that my first introduction to it has been through this app
The first session was fantastic. I feel safe. And supported. Almost like having someone helping me through my difficult time. I’m very grateful for this app.

Kelly Boys is hands down the best. Everytime I click on one of her guided meditations I get excited for the calmness that lies ahead.
