Thank you for offering this meditation. I found the teacher’s voice and background music soothing. I appreciated the image of softening and hydrating. I found it calming and hopefully healing.

A beautiful practice that guided me with the images, questions and encouragement I needed to gently ground my breathing and love for myself. I'll definitely come back to this whether I'm practicing from a place of deep darkness or looking to open up my light.

Calming my buzzing body. Soothing my bouncing thoughts. Empowering me to return back to my natural peace. Beautifully paced and articulated, this is definitely going to be a favourite I'll be coming back to again and again as a gentle reminder of how to slow down.
