Inner Support for Calm, Awareness & ResponseA grounding, body-based practice to calm the nervous system and build inner support through breath, awareness, and mindful presence.This episode invites you to slow down, listen inward, and respond from the body rather than react.Through gentle visualization and breath-led awareness, you'll be guided to meet your mood exactly as it is, without judgment or fixing. This meditation focuses on cultivating internal strength, resilience, and trust in the body's ability to adapt and support you moment by moment.Rather than reacting from habit or urgency, this practice offers space to pause, sense, and choose—honoring the wisdom that already lives within you.This meditation is especially supportive for anyone seeking grounding, nervous system regulation, emotional clarity, or a deeper connection to their embodied self.Best enjoyed seated, lying down, or gently moving—whatever feels supportive to you today.Send us a textWanna be on the show?

It is December 21st—the Winter Solstice. In the Northern Hemisphere, this is the shortest day and the longest night of the year. While nature invites us into deep stillness and rest during this time, our modern world pushes us to do the exact opposite.If you are feeling the "holiday buzz" of anxiety beneath your skin, financial stress, or the sheer mental load of making magic happen for everyone else, this episode is your sanctuary.Join us for a nervous system reset designed to soothe the overwhelm of the festive season. Today, we return to the show's roots with simplicity and proven somatic techniques to help you move from dysregulation to safety.In this episode, we cover:The Winter Solstice Disconnect: Why pushing your body hard when nature says "slow down" leads to nervous system dysregulation.Somatic Grounding: Using the physical sensation of gravity to stop holding yourself up and finally let go.Safety Signals: The "Hand on Heart, Hand on Belly" technique to send immediate safety signals to your brain.Vagus Nerve Stimulation: How to use gentle humming vibrations to soothe frazzled nerves.Restorative Affirmations: Permitting yourself to align with the stillness of the solstice and set boundaries protecting your energy.Key Affirmations from this Session:"It is safe for me to slow down right now." "My worth is not tied to how much I do or buy or plan this week." "I am choosing self-love over sacrifice." "I am worthy of the same care and magic that I try to create for others." Take a Moment for You: This is your coffee break for the soul. You don't need to escape reality; you just need to ground yourself within it. Whether you are seated or lying down, allow these few minutes to regulate your heart rate and bring peace to your mind.Support the Podcast & Your Peace of MindIf you found this session helpful, please consider subscribing or sharing it with a friend who might also need a nervous system reset this week.Become a Supporter: Want to listen ad-free and access exclusive long-form content?

The dance of water (feminine) and fire (masculine) intensifies: water replenishing, fire clearing impurities, opposites in delicate harmony, drawing us inward to retreat and realign within our solar cycle.This is a passage, not just “one day.” Honor the transition over several days rather than a fixed date. In Australia, the shift into summer spans ~4 days; here in the North, winter's arrival unfolds over ~9 days. Awareness of these shifts supports your inner/outer landscape and reclaims your natural rhythm with place.We're spiraling into mastery of self, serving communities with balance and reciprocation, season by season.May you dance freely with Mother Nature and divine love this winter/summer transition. See what unfolds. Nighttime duration (sunset to sunrise) in Los Angeles, CA (Dec 17–26, 2025, via timeanddate.com):Dec 17–25: 14h 7m Dec 26: 14h 6m Look up your location as inspired. May you enter into the Northern winters with the rhythm of slow waltz and Southern summers with the flow of a spicy salsa or tango. Simply. Listen. Rest in the Void.The New Moon reached full potency on Friday, December 19, 2025, eliminating reference to chrono time. Questions:Are you willing to create more space for silence in you daily life?If yes, where is the most effortless place to do this first? If no, why?What are you prepared to start visioning for the benefit of self and others?Weekly talks are an offering to assist you in diving deeper into a spiritual practice, exploring your inner landscape, and cultivating inner peace.Time Stamps: Dharma 0:00 | Meditation 22:00 | Sound 46:00 | Outro 1:25:00MusicRandom Rab  Up Coming Shows:‘Fields of Floors' by Cadre Scott Sound Suzanne Toro Producer: Dante Marino Production brought to you by OmToro Wellness + MediaMind Training: 8 Limbs Yoga Session: Weekly Writings and Well BeingHumanity + Earth Friendly Goodies:SuperfeastLiving TeaKindSpringFormula FlawlessBalance + Focus Quick LinkOra CacoaBook: SunPlayHoney Bee Hippie

The most powerful affirmation of all time, paired with the science of Non-Sleep Deep Rest.It is December 20th. The pressure to "do more" and "buy more" is at its peak. But what if, for just 10 minutes, you didn't have to improve, achieve, or acquire anything?In this classic session, Martin uses the NSDR (Non-Sleep Deep Rest) protocol to guide you into a state of profound physiological relaxation. We combine a somatic body scan with the most searched-for affirmation in the world to rewire your subconscious mind.In this session, we cover:0:00 - Introduction: Why you need to stop "doing" and start "being."1:30 - The NSDR Body Rotation (Somatic Release).4:00 - The "Physiological Sigh" breathing technique.6:00 - The Core Affirmation: "I Am Enough."9:00 - Re-surfacing with clarity.

Feeling ungrounded, overwhelmed, or in need of a pause?This December 2025 Solstice Guided Meditation offers a grounding, restorative practice to support your nervous system and reconnect you with the steady rhythm of the Earth during this powerful seasonal turning point.In this Solstice meditation, you'll be guided through the 5 Elements — Earth, Water, Air, Fire, and Ether — allowing your energy to soften, reorganize, and settle naturally. Whether you're experiencing the longest night or the longest day, this meditation works with the Solstice as a moment of balance, stillness, and quiet renewal.Gentle 7 Hz binaural beats support a relaxed, receptive state, helping calm mental noise and bring you back into your body, breath, and intuitive awareness. This practice is designed to ease stress, support emotional balance, and create a sense of grounded presence as the season shifts.Created by Crystal of The Psychic Soul, this guided Solstice meditation is a nourishing ritual you can return to throughout the season — or anytime you want to feel steadier, more present, and connected to what matters most.I LOVE YOU! - Crystal

(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) We start with settling for about 8 minutes followed by about the same time with basic mindfulness practice. Then we explore "moderate" experiences of pleasant or unpleasant when they occur, whether a bodily experience, an emotion, or a thought (or a mix), experiencing pleasant or unpleasant and seeing whether there follows wanting (or not wanting) and reactivity (habitual grasping or pushing away). We close with some reflection on what we explored, with an emphasis on skillful aversion: Was some of the not wanting skillful? Unskillful? What do we find in some daily life examples of aversion? This exploration is related to the talk given a short time later.

God formed you carefully—every part of you. In this episode of Draw Near, Kara leads you through a guided visualization meditation designed to quiet the noise and open you to the depth of God's love for you. This reflection is especially for anyone who struggles to see themselves as wholly good and loved... those who can appreciate their strengths but wrestle with their weaknesses, insecurities, or parts they wish were different. This meditation gently invites you to see yourself through God's eyes and to receive yourself with the same love God offers. Drawn directly from the Surrender Journal (https://www.drawnear.me/drawnearshop) we wrote and offer through our shop, this prayer experience is meant to be returned to again and again—especially in moments of self-doubt, comparison, or discouragement. Find a quiet place, take a deep breath, and allow God to remind you: you are deeply known, carefully created, and lovingly held. Questions to reflect on before you begin: 1. Where do you find value within yourself? When do feel valuable? Are there moments when you do not feel valuable but worthless? What are they? 2. What lies from the evil one do you listen to regularly regarding your life, identity, or value? 3. What does it mean to be made in the image of God? What does it mean to be in the likeness of God?

You do not have to absorb the stress of the people around you.Welcome to Day 3 of The Holiday Sanctuary. As we move deeper into the week, social obligations—office parties, family calls, and crowded shops—often increase. For those of us who are sensitive, this contact can feel draining. We often leave these interactions feeling exhausted, not because we did too much, but because we felt too much.In today's episode, Protecting Your Energy Field, we are building a boundary. We are learning the difference between empathy (understanding someone) and absorption (taking on their emotions).In this session, you will experience:The Cleansing Breath: A visualization-based breathwork technique where you inhale clear, restorative light and exhale the grey smoke of other people's tension.The "Glass Wall" Visualization: A powerful mental exercise to construct a transparent shield around you. This allows you to see and hear the world clearly, but ensures that negativity simply bounces off your field rather than sinking in.Affirmations for Boundaries: "I observe stress without absorbing it." "I am the guardian of my own energy."Carry this shield with you into every room you enter today.Next Up: Join me tomorrow for the final session, Day 4, where we will focus on "The Celebration"—finding genuine joy in the season on your own terms.

Does the mid-December energy feel louder and more frantic, while you just crave silence?Welcome to The Holiday Sanctuary, a special four-part series designed to ground your energy, protect your peace, and help you navigate this season on your own terms.Sunday evenings in December can feel heavy, and seeing images of "perfect" gatherings can make us feel incredibly lonely.In Day 1: Embracing Solitude & Finding Connection, we shift the narrative. We are reframing loneliness into restorative solitude, reminding you that even in the quiet, you are never truly alone.In this episode, you will experience:Heart Coherence Breathing: A powerful breathwork technique (Inhale 5, Exhale 5) to bridge the gap between your mind and emotions.The Golden Web Visualization: A guided journey to connect your inner light with thousands of others listening right now, weaving a web of support across the world.Affirmations for Belonging: Anchoring the belief that your solitude is a sanctuary, not a sadness.Whether you are on your own or surrounded by people but feeling misunderstood, this session offers a safe container to breathe and reconnect.Next Up: Join me tomorrow for Day 2, where we will learn the art of slowing down when the world tries to speed up.

Let us know what you enjoy about the show!What would your day feel like if the pressure to prove eased by even ten percent?In this guided meditation, we open a gentle, grounded space to notice the quiet expectations that hum beneath the surface—the subtle “I should have” and “I need to” messages that drain focus and blur what truly matters. Rather than arguing with these stories, we meet them with curiosity. We trace where they come from—family, culture, industry—and ask a simple but powerful question: Do these expectations still belong to me?Using a clear, vivid image, each expectation appears as a small card you can name and set down. Performance pressure. Perfection myths. Approval-seeking. Fear-rooted rules. You choose where they go—a bowl, a river, a fire—and with each exhale, you practice releasing the need to meet every demand. The breath becomes a tool for nervous system calm: inhaling to create space, exhaling to soften attachment. As the body unwinds, relief or uncertainty may arise—and both are welcome. This is a practice of clarity without judgment.From that new spaciousness, we listen for values that feel true right now—presence, kindness, courage, steadiness, creativity. One value may rise to the surface and settle like a compass. From there, we ask a practical, human question: How might I live from this value just a little more today? The answer can be small and still powerful—a slower morning, a kinder email, a boundary that protects your focus.This meditation is for anyone ready to release urgency, soothe the nervous system, and move from external approval toward internal alignment. Press play when you're seeking calm clarity—and notice the value you choose to lead with today.If this practice supports you, consider subscribing, leaving a brief review, or sharing it with someone who could use a gentler pace.If you are enjoying the show please subscribe, share and review!

Hi love, it's Jody. There have been times in my own life when I've felt completely knocked off my feet—uprooted, unstable, and unsure where to land. And as disorienting as those moments were, they also became gifts. Gifts that reminded me of the light that's my truest self, and of the deep safety that's always here when I root back into me. So in today's meditation, we'll ground into that same safety together—coming home to stability, wholeness, and the steady strength within you. Take a breath, settle in, and let's begin.
