Explore how to declutter your mind and cultivate deeper focus not only in your meditation but in your daily life too.
So just taking a few moments to settle
into your seat for this meditation.
And allowing the eyes to close.
And taking three deep, slow breaths now.
A deep breath in.
And release it fully.
Two more like that.
In.
And out.
And one more time.
In.
And out.
And just letting go of any
control of the breath now.
Letting the body breathe in its own way.
But staying in touch with the
feeling and sensation of the breath.
And with each exhale, relaxing more
and more fully into the here and now.
And can you reduce your focus
down to just this one breath now.
Following this next breath from
the very first touch of the inhale.
.All the way to the top of the in breath.
And notice that little pause at the top.
And then feeling the out-breath,
all the way to the last touch of air
leaves the body, and notice the little
pause at the end of the out-breath
before a fresh new breath begins.
So continue to follow
the breath in this way.
One breath at a time.
All the way in.
And all the way out.
A wise man once told me that the way
that we pay attention in meditation
is a little bit like falling in love.
So when you fall in love, you
give something your complete
and undivided attention with
openness, warmth, acceptance.
So with this in mind, can you let
yourself fall in love with the breath?
Just giving it all of your
attention, opening up fully to
what's here to be felt and known.
And we can bring this same focused,
clear attention into our daily lives by
focusing on just one thing at a time.
So for instance, the next time
you're talking to a co-worker or
a loved one, instead of glancing
at your phone or thinking about
what you're going to do later, you
could slow down and truly listen.
And when you're eating your next meal,
instead of watching TV or multitasking,
you could just eat, savor and taste.
Take one bite at a time.
Whatever it is that you're doing today,
try to give the task your full attention
and just do that one thing at a time.
And in this way, you'll unwind from
the habit of rushing through your
life, stressed and frazzled, and
find more ease, joy, and fulfillment.
And as this practice now begins to
draw to a close, just notice how
your mind and body are feeling after
taking this time for meditation.
And begin to move the fingers and toes.
And gently opening the eyes.
Enjoy your day.

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.

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.
