Vidyamala Burch OBE, is a mindfulness teacher, author, the co-founder of Breathworks, the internationally acclaimed mindfulness organization helping thousands to live peacefully with chronic pain. She is the author of Living Well With Pain & Illness: The Mindful Way to Free Yourself From Suffering.

In this meditation, we learn about the 5 B's - 5 areas in the body to relax and release to bring about greater ease - the Buttocks, Belly, Back, Base of the skull, and Brain.

Breathe for Ease

Drawing on the words of Dogen, a 13th century Buddhist monk, we cultivate stability in the body along with a vast and spacious quality of heart and mind.

Body Like a Mountain, Heart Like the Ocean, Mind Like the Sky

This meditation will guide you to let go of resistance and tightness, and by doing so, releasing awareness into a more fluid and open experience.

From Fighting to Flowing

A deeply embodied practice where the breath massages the whole body creating deeper rest and ease. This practice will also promote deeper sleep if done just before bed.

Breath-Based Body Scan

Use this meditation to explore how to find the middle way between overwhelm and denial as we learn to manage our pain.

Trauma-Sensitive Practice

A Body Scan where we consciously imagine the whole body becoming filled with light and ease. 

Filling the Body With Light
