Shifting States With The Calm Place

This guide is a follow-up to the Calm Place meditation. If you have not already done a Calm Place meditation, please find my previous mediation, "Calm Place Grounding." Shifting states is a skill that helps us get to know how our nervous system is connected to the sensations in the body. Using mindfulness to notice both pleasant and less-than-pleasant states, this meditation begins to strengthen our ability to gently accept and shift states in times of stress or disturbance.
