MEDITATIONS

A meditation to enjoy a felt sense of elegance, pleasure and ease, while you free up space to invite more of what you live into your life.

A meditation to decompose all the parts of yourself that no longer serve you, so that you can plant new seeds in the rich soil, for a strong, clear and rooted start to the new year.

A meditation to contemplate the year that has been and how you might ritually instil a new way of being that is more aligned with your deepest values.

A meditation to slow down, switch off and find your child-like delight inside, your inner wilderness embodied as joy.

A meditation to sense into the edges of your body, noticing where your inner world ends and the outer world begins.

A meditation on letting go, decomposing - a necessary function of our regenerative biorhythm. Creating rich soil before planting new seeds - shedding a layer to make way for a new you.

A meditation to find peace, stillness, insight and renewed light in the darkness.

A meditation on the fallow season: a time to yield into quiescence, quietness, stillness, inactivity and dormancy.

A meditation to have your own felt experience of Yutori, to take your sweet time, to take up space, to breathe, to sense, to arrive, to land, to be.

A meditation to bring you into contact with the minor miracles surrounding you in every day life objects.

A meditation guide you through a step by step process of acceptance, slowing down and releasing the chase for immediate transformation. Fully accepting where we are at is the first step, putting both feet on the ground and finding that source of presence from which to enter into the world. Without this full acceptance we are running in the dark, let each step light up your world with clarity, compassion and meaningful change. [I attempted to record this one outside, apologies for the rumbling wind!]

A meditation to nurture our relationships, as we learn to be with uncomfortable feelings and thoughts, so that we can mend the tapestry of our social lives.

A meditation to find a fresh perspective, empowerment and freedom in everyday situations that previously had you feeling stuck.

A non-sleep deep rest meditation to cultivate your inner resolve for this new years resolution.

A meditation to cultivate an urgent and intense sense of gratitude for our life exactly as it is. This is not a pedestrian gratitude practise that you may already know is good for you to do, but rather a stark recognition of the outrageous great fortune of your life.

A walking meditation is an opportunity to move your body and observe the reality of constant change while abiding in the deeply restorative state of mindfulness.

A grounding and rejuvenating practise to enhance your awareness and sensitivity in the area of your pelvis, the area known in the yogic tradition as Red Bindu.

A meditation to clear the slate and see things, situations and people as if for the first time, with a beginners mind.

A meditation to gain perspective and move through patterns of discomfort, fear or worry. Inspired by the Tibetan practise of Chöd, known in the West as Feeding Your Demons. Only do this practise in a calm and safe environment, free from disturbances. Do not attempt this practise without professional support if you suffer with PTSD or any traumatic past experience.

A contemplation on the main energy centres in the body according to the yogic tradition and how they correlate to an area of growth in our development and evolution. Ending with the Taoist breathing meditation and visualisation practise of the Microcosmic Orbit.

A meditation to let go of mental constructs and social expectations in order to feel more clearly your internal fire, to hear more clearly your inner genius, and to see more clearly your guiding light that will lead you through the darkness. ***Photograph by Yoan @italreadyexists***

A meditation to become aware of the subtleties of the senses and the aliveness beneath them all. Pratyahara, withdrawal of the senses, is like a fish becoming aware of the life sustaining water it lives in.

A breath focused practise to soothe the body and put the mind in a calm state to pause, to experience intervals of stillness and silence. WARNING: Do not do this breath practise if you have a cardiovascular or respiratory condition, a tendency to seizures, or a tendency to panic attacks, this breath practise can effect blood pressure.

A meditation to remember and embody your innate feeling of joy, even and especially amidst challenging times. This is not to dismiss the weight of responsibility living in real world challenges but rather to build strength by embodying joy.

An introspective meditation to cultivate interoception, the felt sense of internal organs and glands, to align your internal environment with a slower restorative state of being.

A meditation for mind chatter, to create a sacred space inside and drop beneath the waves of the mind.

A meditation to become aware of our whole somatic experience, releasing body tension and infusing our body with a renewed sensation of love and safety.

A meditation to energise your entire body by directing your breath into every cell as if it were the very life force streaming through your blood.

A medicinal meditation to infuse your body-mind with the joy, love, contentment and gratitude. Infused and overflowing, you are invited to extend your light and blessings to others who may be in need. Your attention with intention is medicine.

A soothing meditation to that takes you deep underneath the surface layer of life stuff so that you may experience peace, tranquility and the undisturbed ground of being.

Burn through your old outworn patterns that hold you back, transform your perception of who you are and let go of attachments that make you feel you stuck.
