Podcasts about Meditation

The portal to presence is awakening through the body from the inside out, and then opening to include sound in field of aliveness. This reveals  the awake space that everything's happening in; the space that lets everything be, just as it is. It's in that full allowing that we discover the center of now, that pure still presence that is the very source of our being. The meditation ends with an offering of prayer as that presence is experienced in the domain of the heart.   Our introduction music is from "Opening" by Adrienne Torf, © 2025 ABT Music

This past year "Sandy" watched a dear friend dive deep into spiritual work and lose himself. At first his spirituality appeared to be helping him, but over time, things changed. He put himself into unsafe situations, and now Sandy is confused about her own beliefs. How she can call her own beliefs "real", while calling what he believes "delusion"?

As we navigate the often overwhelming demands of daily life, particularly during pressure-filled seasons, I emphasize the importance of transitioning from a state of panic to one of presence and acceptance. This meditation serves as an invitation to slow down, embrace the stillness, and return to our natural state of calm.I begin by encouraging you to create a quiet space where you can comfortably situate yourself, whether that be sitting, lying down, or cocooned in your favorite blanket. It's essential to allow your body to feel supported and to grant yourself the permission to disengage from the burdens of your day. As we settle in, I emphasize the first steps of the practice—taking deep, conscious breaths, and noticing the weight of your body in its current state. Each breath serves as a reminder that it is perfectly okay to simply be, without the incessant need to do or achieve.Throughout the meditation, I guide you to release the tension often held in our bodies by inviting you to visualize letting go of tight grips and pressures. As we explore the concept of surrendering, I introduce the metaphor of holding a rope tightly, symbolizing the strain of managing our stressors. By loosening our grip, we create space for tranquility and self-acceptance. I encourage you to bring to mind an aspect of your life that feels heavy or stressful, emphasizing that this practice is not about fixing or solving problems, but rather about acknowledging and softening around them without resistance.#anxiety #mentalhealth #meditation #mindfulness #selfcare #stress #wellness #calm #healing #breathwork #relax #peace #yoga #mentalhealthmatters #anxietyrelief #guidedmeditation #anxietycoachespodcast #ginaryan #panicattackrelief #nervoussystemregulation #surrender #acceptance #justbe #holidaystress #overwhelm #mindfulmoments #stressrelief #mentalwellness #meditationpractice #grounding #emotionalhealth #anxietysupport #slowdown #presentmoment #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this fifth episode of the Peace series, we turn our attention to the Third Chakra—Manipura, the center of inner strength, confidence, and personal power. During seasons of transition, this chakra can become clouded by doubt, fatigue, or emotional heaviness, making it harder to feel grounded or at peace. Today's practice is designed to gently reignite the warm, steady flame within you—without force, pressure, or striving. Through calming guided awareness, you'll be invited to soften into the area around your solar plexus, releasing tension and reconnecting with the quiet strength that lives beneath the surface. This is not about pushing forward—it's about remembering your inner stability, the part of you that remains steady even when life feels fast or uncertain. By awakening the Third Chakra with intention and gentleness, you may notice a subtle shift: clearer boundaries, lighter energy, and a renewed sense of calm confidence. Peace is not only a softening—it is also a steadying. And today, you reconnect with both. Manipura invites you to feel warm, centered, and quietly powerful—ready to move through the season with peace glowing from within. This is a replay of a series I recorded a few years ago! ALL ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES As the year winds down and the world grows louder with commitments, celebrations, and expectations, this series invites you to do something rare and powerful: slow down. The Peace Meditation Series is your gentle companion through the end-of-year rush and into the quiet promise of a brand new beginning. Each episode is designed to help you release what no longer serves you, soften the nervous system, and return to a deep sense of calm—no matter what the season brings. Whether you are reflecting on the year behind you or setting intentions for the year ahead, these moments of stillness are here to steady your breath, clear your mind, and reconnect you with your inner peace. This is not about striving or fixing. It is about remembering the calm that already lives within you. Welcome to your season of peace. Welcome to "A Gentle Path to Peace." This is day 5 of a 7-day meditation series, "A Gentle Path to Peace," episodes 1648-1654. Prepare to embrace peace in daily life.

Digging into how while meditation and mindfulness practices can enhance our ability to self regulate and improve our self-compassion, they are not helpful for everyone.  This level of internal focus can bring on panic attacks, anxiety and enhanced trauma responses causing us to escalate in behaviors which are meant to keep us safe.

This class had a great arc to it, real soft on the ends while strong and challenging through the middle. Lots of twists. 

Journalist and author, Brigid Delaney looked into the ancient philosophy during an assignment from her editor. What she discovered led her to years of study and a brand-new outlook on life that focuses less on happiness and more on meaning and contentment.Brigid is devoted to the Stoics, a philosophy that encourages its followers to focus on what they can control, accepting what happens outside of that sphere of control, and mastering inner peace to have a good life.These ideas have helped Brigid prepare for grief and take the edge off her anxiety by putting it in context.One of the most powerful Stoic ideas is that all the wonderful things and people in our life are “on loan” and can be taken away at any moment.Instead of taking them for granted, the Stoics wanted us to run toward them at full speed, and wring as much fun and juice out of them as we can.Further informationBrigid's new book The Seeker And The Sage, and Reasons Not To Worry: How to be Stoic in chaotic times are both published by Allen & Unwin.The Executive Producer of Conversations is Nicola Harrison.This episode contains references to a buddhist with attitude, Nassim Taleb, stoic week, Nero, improving my life, how to improve my life, how to be content, how to find meaning in life, The Guardian, Brigid Delaney's Diary, newspaper column, newspaper columnist, writer, writing life, author, novel, fable, Circles of Hierocles, meditation, Celeste Barber, Wellmania, netflix and internal happiness.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

The two main stories in the parasha - the story of Yoseph and the story of Yehudah - form the basis for Joseph being the chariot of Yesod, the implementer of Tiferet - Jacob. Likewise, Yoseph is the source of the Messiah Ben Yoseph - the developmental stage of humanity preceding the era of enlightenment and spirituality - the Messiah Ben David. Are we witnessing a transition between the two periods? At such a dramatic time in human history? Will we soon see a wave of spiritual awakening coming from the upper worlds?

Most people stay locked in a constant sympathetic state without realizing it, which drains focus, sleep quality, emotional balance, and long-term resilience. This episode gives you a science backed path to retrain your nervous system, improve heart rate variability, and shift out of stress on command using focused ultrasound technology that targets the vagus nerve. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey talks with Jon Hacker, CEO of NeurGear and creator of ZenBud. Jon is a biomedical engineer who has dedicated his career to bridging neuroscience and daily wellness. His work includes peer reviewed clinical research on anxiety, PTSD, autonomic regulation, and non invasive vagus nerve stimulation. He is one of the first innovators to bring focused ultrasound out of the lab and into a practical wearable designed to help people regulate state, build resilience, and create more conscious control over their biology. In this conversation, Dave and Jon break down how ultrasound activates the auricular branch of the vagus nerve, why most electrical vagus nerve devices fail, and what actually happens in the first three to five minutes when the system begins shifting out of sympathetic activation. Jon explains how early trauma wires the autonomic system, why chronic stress is often physiological rather than psychological, and how daily stimulation strengthens vagal tone through Hebbian learning. They also explore how HRV reflects hidden state changes, how nervous system training supports clearer thinking and better emotional regulation, and why this type of tech matters as AI, algorithms, and modern stressors continue to push people into dysregulated states. You'll Learn: • Why sympathetic dominance is so widespread in the modern environment • How the vagus nerve influences stress, recovery, inflammation, and emotional balance • What makes focused ultrasound more precise than electrical vagus nerve stimulation • How ZenBud produced a 78 percent remission rate in clinical anxiety research • How early trauma alters autonomic patterns and keeps people in hidden fight or flight • How three to five minutes of stimulation can reset state during panic or overwhelm • Why daily use strengthens vagal tone and builds long term resilience • How HRV training, consciousness practices, and nervous system workouts fit together • Why noninvasive brain interfaces may become the safer future path as AI advances This episode is essential for anyone interested in biohacking, stress physiology, nervous system training, emotional regulation, HRV, meditation, trauma recovery, longevity, and building a more adaptable brain and body. It gives you a practical look at how the autonomic system really works and how focused ultrasound may change the future of human performance. Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade brings you the knowledge to take control of your biology, extend your longevity, and optimize every system in your body and mind. Each episode delivers cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, biohacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. New episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Sunday (BONUS). Dave asks the questions no one else will and gives you real tools to become stronger, smarter, and more resilient.

Most people think performance is about more reps, more data, more tech, or more intensity. But according to human performance educator Rob Wilson, the truth is far more uncomfortable: most elite performers don't actually understand their own bodies, identities, or inner signals—and it's costing them years of longevity, clarity, and resilience.In this powerful conversation, Mark Divine and Rob Wilson break down the real keys to performance longevity, emotional resilience, identity beyond your job title, and why self-awareness is the most underrated skill in elite sport, tactical teams, and everyday life.From breathwork, interoception, and spinal health… to transitions out of high-status careers… to the hidden dangers of burnout and tech dependency… this episode explores the deep work behind staying healthy, powerful, and fully human in a high-performance world.If you're an athlete, coach, operator, or leader who wants to sustain excellence without breaking your body, mind, or identity—this conversation will shift how you train, lead, and live.In this episode, you'll learn:1. Why high performers must become “problem seekers,” not just problem solvers2. How to become the observer of your own training instead of a consumer of metrics3. Why tech overload is weakening self-awareness and decision-making4. How breathwork and spinal health unlock long-term resilience5. Why identity collapse affects elite operators and athletes after transition6. How emotional intelligence amplifies performance and protects mental health7. What it really takes to prevent burnout and injury in high-stress environments8.

In this third episode of the Peace series, we shift from simply seeking calm to actively cultivating it through the breath. Today's practice features a gentle Peace Breath—a soothing technique that lengthens the exhale to settle the nervous system, quiet racing thoughts, and bring the whole body into a state of ease. As you slowly inhale and exhale, you'll be guided to melt tension, soften the shoulders, and release the internal pressure often stirred by busy seasons and crowded calendars. This is a simple rhythm with powerful effects, restoring a sense of spaciousness where stress once lived.

Pastor Heather Jarvie reflects on the impact of childhood scripture memorization and highlights the importance of not only studying the Bible but also meditating on it, allowing its truths to resonate deeply within our hearts.

This is Christian Meditation for A Bigger Life – a time for you to relax your body and refocus your mind to experience the reality of God's presence. I'm Dave Cover. I want to help you with Christian meditation where you can break through all the distractions and experience God's presence through biblically guided imagination.  Getting a good night's sleep is a challenge for almost everyone. Especially when there are circumstances in our life we're uncertain about or regrets in our life we can't seem to move past. There's something about the nighttime that often brings out our anxiety and stress and insecurities more. It's amazing the difference of how you'll feel about your life circumstances at 2:00 a.m. versus in the morning when the sun is out. And when we read the Bible we realize this was an issue for David over 3000 years ago as well. Psalms 6:3, 6 (NIV) “My soul is in deep anguish. …All night long I flood my bed with weeping and drench my couch with tears.” It seems like I've had one or two nights like that in my life. But mostly whenever I can't sleep is when I can't figure out what to do with my worry or regrets. But David found the ability to sleep when he was able to entrust everything in his life and his life itself into the hands of God. Psalms 3:5 (NIV) “I lie down and sleep; I wake again, because the LORD sustains me.” Psalms 4:8 (NIV)  “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety.” In spite of facing a multitude of enemies and hardships in his life — David is here choosing to trust and rest in the promise that God is in control. And all David can do now is pray to God for help and entrust things into his hands. And that's all you can do. All the things in your life right now that are causing anxiety, worry, uncertainty — envision yourself putting everything into God's hands. Ask him to do what you want him to do and then leave things in his hands. He may or may not do exactly what you want because he sees the total big picture, but things will turn out ultimately right for you when you trust them into the hands of a loving and good God.

Sis, this season can be all the chaos. It's time you be present with yourself, take a step back, allow yourself rest, peace, and grace. Friend, you owe you. This episode is DIFFERENT. This isn't just host Lindsey Nichol talking - it's Lindsey GUIDING you through 3 calming meditations specifically designed for your recovery journey. Save this episode. Bookmark it. Come back to it whenever you need it. This time of year, anyone can feel overwhelmed by holiday chaos. But for someone with an eating disorder, the anxiety can be crippling. Pre-meal panic. Body image triggers. Overwhelming thoughts that feel impossible to quiet. Lindsey has walked this path. She knows how overwhelming those thoughts and feelings get, especially during the holidays. That's why she created these simple, powerful meditations to be your companion whenever you need to: Calm pre-meal anxiety before eating with family Ground yourself during a body image crisis Show yourself compassion on the hardest days Whether you're struggling with pre-meal anxiety, having a hard day with your body image, or just need a moment to ground yourself - press play on this episode. Come back to this episode when you're feeling overwhelmed, when you're feeling not enough, and when that anxiety feels like it's on overdrive. The 3 Guided Meditations: Meditation #1: Pre-Meal Calming Meditation (For Anxiety Before Eating) When to use this: Before lunch or dinner when anxiety feels highest When sitting down with family for meals When you feel panic rising about food choices When the ED voice is loudest before eating What Lindsey guides you through: Finding comfortable seated position Gentle breathing to become present Noticing thoughts like clouds passing in the sky Hand-on-heart, hand-on-belly grounding Affirmations: "I give my body permission to be nourished" "I choose to feed my body with compassion" "Food is my medicine. This is a good thing" "This is one step in my recovery journey" Breathing mantras: "I am stronger than the eating disorder voice" "I have the wisdom to nourish my body" "I am more than my body" Duration: ~5 minutes Key truth: These quiet moments of connection with yourself are powerful. This helps you separate from the ED voice and reconnect with your TRUE self. Meditation #2: Body Image Grounding Meditation (For Body Hate Days) When to use this: When you're having a hard body image day When "feeling fat" is overwhelming When critical thoughts about your body won't stop When you need to reconnect with gratitude for your body Important reminder: "Feeling fat" isn't actually a feeling - it's often your body's way of telling you something else is going on emotionally. What Lindsey guides you through: Comfortable position (seated or lying down) Noticing where your body contacts the ground (grounding) Body scan from feet to head with gentle awareness: Feet: Connecting to the ground, wiggling toes Legs: Getting stronger, supporting you Core/Stomach: Your true strength, your center (not to be micromanaged) Chest: Rising and falling with each breath Arms/Hands: Tools to express love, create amazing things Head: Houses thoughts AND dreams, desires, wishes Acknowledging judgmental thoughts without judgment Thanking your body for what it allows you to do Self-hug + gratitude: "Thank you for allowing me to walk, breathe, be grounded" Key practice: When critical thoughts arise, simply say "I notice I'm having a judgmental thought," then return to observing with curiosity. Duration: ~7 minutes Key truth: Your body is not your enemy. It's not up for negotiation. It's your HOME - where you live. Meditation #3: Self-Compassion Meditation (For Suffering + Hard Moments) When to use this: When you're feeling overwhelmed When you don't honor or love yourself When you don't know where to turn next When you need to be as kind to yourself as you'd be to a friend What Lindsey guides you through: Thinking of a recent challenge in recovery Noticing emotions and physical sensations Hand over heart, feeling steady heartbeat Affirmations: "This is a moment of suffering" "Suffering will pass - it's part of life and recovery" "I can be kind to myself in this process" Imagining a friend facing the same challenges Asking: "What would I say to them? How would I support them?" Offering yourself that same grace: "I'm doing the best I can" "Recovery takes time" "I'm worthy of patience and understanding" Key practice: You deserve the same kindness you'd offer your friend, mom, or sister. Duration: ~5 minutes Key truth: Your ED voice may be loud this season, but it doesn't have to control you or your actions. Key Reminders Throughout: Thoughts Are Like Clouds: They can come in (like your breath) and flow out (like your exhale) without you grabbing onto them. Your Truth: These thoughts can pass like clouds in the sky You are MORE than these thoughts This voice is NOT your truth You can choose recovery in this exact moment Your worth will NEVER be determined by food or weight You are SAFE here For Beginners: This isn't about doing it perfectly. It's about giving yourself permission and the gift of being present and compassionate. How to Use This Episode: Save it. Bookmark it. Add it to a playlist. Press play: Before meals when anxiety rises During body image struggles On overwhelmingly hard days Whenever you need grounding Come back often: These meditations get easier with regular practice. Each time you return to this episode, you're strengthening your recovery toolkit. Pause anytime: Lindsey guides you through, then gives you space to practice on your own. Feel free to pause and extend any meditation as long as you need. Powerful Truths from This Episode: "Since your body, it is worthy of nourishment" "These thoughts are like clouds passing in the sky - they can come in and go out without you grabbing onto them" "Your body is not your enemy. It's your home. It's where you live" "Feeling fat isn't actually a feeling - it's often your body's way of telling you something else is going on emotionally" "Your core is your true strength, your center - it's not to be micromanaged" "You deserve the same kindness you would offer to your friend" "Your eating disorder voice may be loud, but it doesn't have to control you" "Recovery isn't about perfection - it's about progress" "These quiet moments of connection are so powerful" Why These Meditations Work: They're Specific to ED Recovery: Not generic mindfulness - these address pre-meal panic, body image, and self-compassion specific to eating disorder struggles. They're Quick: 5-7 minutes each. You can do them anywhere, anytime. They're Guided: Lindsey walks you through every step. No meditation experience needed. They're Repeatable: Come back to this episode again and again. Build these into your recovery routine. They Separate You From the ED Voice: These practices help you recognize that the ED thoughts are NOT you - they're just thoughts passing through. Your Recovery Toolbox: These meditations are TOOLS in your recovery toolbox. Use them whenever you need extra support. Before meals → Meditation #1 Body image crisis → Meditation #2 Hard day/overwhelm → Meditation #3 Remember: You are stronger than you know. You don't have to do this alone. Ready for More Support?

In this meditation, we explore the subtle body, the energetic connection between body and mind, through the lens of Tibetan Buddhism. It's part of a broader conversation we've been having about art, embodiment, and Buddhist practice.Together, we'll gently guide our awareness through the body, connect with the breath, and reflect on how our mind and body are not separate, but deeply intertwined. We'll also explore how this energy body shows up in movement, creativity, emotion, and everyday life.Episode 211: Meditation on the Subtle Body Support the show

Cult survivor and psychotherapist Dr Martina Zangger on her ten years devoted to an Indian mystic and how she learned to stand on her own two feet.When Martina Zangger was 19 years old she became a devotee of the Rajneeshee Movement led by the Guru, Bhagwan.The cult had its headquarters in a huge ashram, built in rural Oregon, and Martina decided she needed to go there to be closer to Rajneesh to find the healing she desperately needed.She became a sex worker to fund her journey there from Sydney.In the ashram, Bhagwan directed his thousands of followers to wear purple clothing, work for him for free, and avoid monogamy.Then one day, Bhagwan suddenly disappeared on a Lear jet taking his collection of diamond-encrusted watches with him.Martina was left to make a life for herself back in the regular world and to slowly confront the childhood trauma that had led her to join the Rajneeshees in the first place.Not My Shame is published by Ventura Press.This episode of Conversations was produced by Meggie Morris, executive producer is Nicola Harrison.It explores religion, spirituality, spiritual seeking, trauma, childhood abuse, sexual abuse, Osho, Rajneesh, Pune, India, Oregon, Ashram, meditation, cults, healing, immigration, therapy, self confidence, self worth, motherhood, perinatal psychosis, mental health, psychotherapy, psychology, relationship, monogamy, parenting, mothers of daughters, social work, social justice, Wild Wild Country, Netflix, Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, guru, mystic, philosophy, spiritual bypassing.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

The saying that life teaches you how to live it is so aligned with Buddhism's invitation to be present in each moment for whatever is at hand.

I'm thrilled to share this meditation designed to help you explore your BIG vision through visualizing your perfect day.The narratives we tell ourselves shape our reality.Visualization is a powerful practice that allows you to plant the seeds of new narratives you wish to grow in your life.Do the narratives you're creating serve your goals and aspirations?Mindfulness enables you to recognize your narratives - whether they're supporting or limiting you.This guided meditation invites you to connect with the narratives that are shaping your experience.I hope this guided meditation serves you well.

Author, runner, and New Jersey legend Lyle Smith (@nymblegram) joins Airey Bros Radio to talk about his new book Blood, Sweat & Spikes: The Wetmore Way — a deep dive into Mark Wetmore, Bernards High School, and the NJ running culture that helped shape American distance running.From asthma and allergies to becoming a HS All-American, from small-town heroes and bus-trip mixtapes to Boulder, Niwot, and Colorado running, this episode is pure nostalgia, storytelling, and wisdom for runners, coaches, and parents.We get into:The making of Blood, Sweat & Spikes and why running needs more honest storytellingMark Wetmore's coaching philosophy from Bernardsville to ColoradoNew Jersey's “golden era” of distance running & the tradition that still lives onAsthma, sick buildings & how running literally changed Lyle's lifeFeeder programs, culture, and what really builds a dynastyCollege recruiting: what Lyle wishes he knew before choosing VillanovaRegrets, honesty, and why this book became a personal therapy sessionFatherhood, Niwot XC, and watching the next generation find their own wayMovies, music, Prefontaine takes, and why Breaking Away & The Sting still hitIf you love New Jersey running, Colorado running, Mark Wetmore lore, or just want a beautifully told running story, this one's for you.

What happens, how do you react when you believe the thought, “I know what is and isn't possible in life"? What kind of life do you find yourself reading with this thought? What kind of Universe is it? Friendly or malicious? In this group meditation, participants question this belief among others and discover some profound things – including an ever-present fear of a ‘cosmic bitch slap.' If you can relate, this week's episode of Love Is The Power is for you.

In this episode, Wendy Newton and I talk about the value of unconditional love, including what it is, what it isn't and how to practice and experience it.Please support Peter's Podcast on Patreon.Peter & Wendy will be workshopping these ideas at a daylong retreat in Sedona Arizona this February.

Headlines shape so much of our perception of reality and drive too many to short term, quick fix states of mind that we miss the peace and stillness of God. Meditation and prayer are essential in the daily disciplines to shod our feet to stand firm in the hour. It is the ongoing never ending conversation with God that allows us to walk in this broken world, not of this world but in the world. Victory is with God, our walk with Him, our building a relationship with Him, the comfort of embracing the gifts that have been placed within us and choosing to grow them to the highest level we can.  #BardsFM_Morning #TheQuietVoice #FaithAndTrust Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com EnviroKlenz Air Purification, promo code BARDS to save 10%:www.enviroklenz.com EMPShield protect your vehicles and home.

In this second episode of the Peace series, we move gently from intention into embodiment. Today's practice centers around a simple yet powerful peace affirmation—one designed to settle the heart, quiet the mind, and remind the body that it is safe to rest. As you breathe and repeat this affirmation, you'll be guided to release tension that often hides beneath the surface during busy seasons. This episode is perfect for moments when the world feels heavy, the calendar feels full, or your thoughts feel restless. Peace does not need to be chased. It can be chosen. And today, you are choosing it—one breath, one moment, one affirmation at a time. Enjoy a Bonus episode from the Sip and Om meditation app (you're invited to try it free for a week!). This is a replay of a series I recorded a few years ago! ALL ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES As the year winds down and the world grows louder with commitments, celebrations, and expectations, this series invites you to do something rare and powerful: slow down. The Peace Meditation Series is your gentle companion through the end-of-year rush and into the quiet promise of a brand new beginning. Each episode is designed to help you release what no longer serves you, soften the nervous system, and return to a deep sense of calm—no matter what the season brings. Whether you are reflecting on the year behind you or setting intentions for the year ahead, these moments of stillness are here to steady your breath, clear your mind, and reconnect you with your inner peace. This is not about striving or fixing. It is about remembering the calm that already lives within you. Welcome to your season of peace. Welcome to "A Gentle Path to Peace."
