Very powerful! I was able to see what I had locked away and retrieve it. The room illuminated in such a beautiful way! Thank you for a beautiful experience.

Very Good guided meditation. In the end, I was breathing slower than the guided. I laughed because I felt somewhat rushed to catch up with “everyone” to breathe as quickly as they were. So at peace, I was concerned that I might fall asleep at the beginning of my day. Ha ha. I feel terrific. Bonus: I know these meditations work because I had melanoma surgery yesterday to remove a chunk out of my right arm before I started a meditation, my heart had been pounding because I was rushing to arrive on time at the ungodly hour of 6:45 while I’m normally awake, I’m usually having breakfast. But I used breathing exercises and the four count box breathing which calmed me down to relaxed which made the surgery where one’s awake and present the whole time more tolerable. Thank you Teacher for the music, birds, your voice all at the right volume and timing. Fabulous! Blessings to you and all on this journey. Warmly, Anne

I’ve bookmarked this episode and have listened to it twice. Each time, I’ve been amazed how the information was so succinctly presented, with enthusiasm and encouragement. Unlike a cheerleader who doesn’t know what (s)he saying, this presenter made sense. Thank you for doing this episode. You’ve encouraged me again. Blessings to you. Warmly, Anne

This affirmation on Surviving 💯 of my adversities was beautiful, but I would like some additional framing, if you don’t mind. I have a discomfort with knowing that my father, two sisters my cousin and other family members didn’t make it to the age of 50. I’m now 56 and half of my sisters didn’t enjoy this side of life.. I don’t accept when people say I’m blessed because that insinuates does my family wasn’t. It’s a painful reality to carry. I’m proud of myself. How do I reconcile those I love deeply that never got to experience the joy I did? Thank you.

This was so cool. The breathing exercise at the beginning was really effective for me and allowed me to really get into the visualization. I really felt the excitement of my home and hosting friends and family, and then I started sweating and my heart was beating fast as I imagined the room with everything that makes me a "lie." That was powerful for me because I think I try to bypass a lot of that stuff and ignore the shame it brings me, so it was good to actually feel how I feel about all of it and bring it to light. The non-judgement of it will take some more time, but the biggest box in that room was labeled "judgement," so that's not unexpected haha. Thank you!

Much better than most of the meditations on this app. This felt real and meaningful. It was well paced and the 5 box breathing was great, too.
