In this meditation, we will practice listening to the pleasant sound of bells to help us feel calm and present.
Hey, welcome.
In this meditation, we're going
to practice calming down our mind.
And to help do so I brought
something very special with me.
I'll share it with you in a moment.
First, I just want to say a lot of times
when our mind feels stressed and chaotic
it's because our thoughts are going
from one thing to another to another.
So one way we can help calm our
mind is by giving it something
simple and pleasant to focus on.
And this is where the
special thing comes in.
I brought my personal
set of bells with me.
You want to hear what they sound like?
Pretty nice, right?
So what we're going to do is just practice
listening to the sound of the bell.
I'll ring them.
And all you need to do is listen to the
sound all the way until it goes back into
silence, when you can't hear it anymore.
If you'd like to close your
eyes, you can do so now.
Let's try it out.
Hmm.
So how was that for you?
Notice if you feel a little more calm.
Let's try it again.
And this time I'll ring
them three times in a row.
All you need to do is just bring your
full focus to the sound of the bell,
letting it relax you and keep listening
to it until you can't hear it anymore.
Let's try it for three times.
Great job so far.
You may notice when doing this, that your
mind goes back into negative thoughts
or something that makes you scared or
is creating some anxiety or stress.
When that happens, just bring
your attention back to the sound.
Let's try it.
And this time I'll ring
them four times in a row.
Each time just focusing on the sound.
Okay.
And before we close our meditation,
let's take one more deep breath together.
In through the nose.
Slowly out through the mouth.
When you're ready, you
can open your eyes again.
Alright.
So that was our bell meditation.
You can do this as many times
throughout the day as you'd like.
It's a great way to help calm your mind,
especially when you're feeling a little
stressed or you're experiencing a lot of
different and maybe difficult thoughts.
The bell can help center your attention,
train you to feel a little more
focused, more present, and more calm.
Thanks for meditating with me.
I'll talk to you soon and
until next time, 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.
- Kirtus
I love how the app gives me pointers to new things to explore.
- Lydia
So calm and soothing. I love the new bundle with Kelly Boys, she’s brilliant!
- EJ
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.
- Babi
You get a lot of useful tips for handling stress and anxiety in 'real life'.
- Joy
Highly recommend.

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.
