Good session. I got a lot out of this talk. Mind to heart, good words for me. The feeling of giving special consideration to my senses, I have recently discovered how helpful these thoughts are to my daily life. Thank you and be here now! 🙂.

Stephen’s meditations help me to feel very grounded. This 52 part MIDL series is my first attempt to work with a longer daily session length and today Stephen’s guidance kept me in the moment, softening my breathing, when my mind had other ideas.

I am so glad I found this meditation. I am facing a medical procedure today that has brought about much fear. I am entering my day instead feeling grateful for my doctors, for the care and support I am receiving, and even for the health condition that is leading me to this moment. I find myself feeling softer, no longer averse, and truly wonder-filled and grateful for this new day of my life.
