In this meditation, we'll train ourselves to create a sense of being "home," right here and right now, even if we feel lost in life.
Let's begin by finding
a comfortable posture.
This could be sitting,
lying down or standing.
If it feels okay to do so,
you can close your eyes.
And we'll take a deep breath together.
In through the nose.
And out through the mouth.
Inviting the jaw to relax and any
muscles in the face, maybe the
cheeks, the forehead, or the eyes.
Let the shoulders be at ease,
maybe dropping an inch or two.
And then the belly.
Are you gripping the
belly, even subconsciously?
Give that permission to relax and be easy.
Nobody's looking, you can let it hang out.
And of course the hands, which
tend to grip when we're stressed.
As we settle in, the breath can settle
into its natural rhythm as well.
In this meditation, we're exploring
the idea that you're not lost.
Even when it most feels like
we are, were always here.
We can always locate ourself
in the present moment.
So let's connect even more
deeply to being here right now.
One of the quickest ways we can
do that is attuning to our breath.
The breath is always present and it's
always a reminder that we're alive and
that there's more right with us than
wrong with us, as long as we're breathing
So give yourself some space to
just feel your body breathing.
If it feels like it would be helpful
for you, you can place one hand on
your belly and one hand on your heart.
Letting this hold remind you
that you're here right now.
We might not yet understand how
this moment or where we're at
plays out in the bigger picture.
At some point, we might understand that.
But it's all just a story,
all just ideas and thoughts.
And so were letting some of that
go in this moment and connecting to
the storyless quality of presence.
Presence is always okay.
It's always here.
There's never any right or wrong,
good or bad because its only job
is to meet this moment as it is.
Each breath taking us
deeper into that embodiment.
Let's take one more deep breath together.
In through the nose.
And out through the mouth.
And when you're ready, you
can invite your eyes to open.
Great job today.
As you go about your day and you're
not sure what you should be doing
or where you're really going,
see if you can just stop, locate
yourself in the present moment.
There you will always find yourself.
Thank you for your practice.
And until we talk again, 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.

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.
