Hello,
Welcome to Guided Jewish Meditations.
My name is Eliezer.
This short meditation offers the opportunity to take 10 minutes out of your busy day and to try and let go of your worries and of the illusion of control that is the source of helplessness and anxieties.
Now is the time to absolve yourself of anything beyond your immediate control,
To leave it in the hands of the infinite creator,
And to focus on what you truly control,
Your free will.
Find a quiet,
Comfortable place where you can meditate without being disturbed.
Sit or lay down,
Gently close your eyes,
And settle in.
Breathe in deeply through your nose,
Exhale through your mouth,
Calmly and evenly.
Allow your mind to relax and slowly and gently clear your mind of all thought.
Continue breathing this way and bring yourself into a deep state of relaxation.

Contentment is the peaceful emotion of having everything you need take a deep breath focus your mind on your life and on the things in your life you feel you truly control your job your health or perhaps your family house garden or other hobbies pick one thing in your life you feel you control meditate on this thing for a short while now ask yourself this question how much of it do you truly control truly to its fullest extent how far does your radius of control truly reach anything you don't fully control is not something that should make you feel helpless or anxious no more as a jet flying above your head should thousands of feet in the air you don't control either why should you worry about it the infinite source is truly in control of all except for one thing your choices the choices you make in life are the only things you control let go of everything else in their stead visualize your entire life being filled with endless divine light unifying all in complete control of all with love compassion life and benevolence reaching out into every aspect of your world allow this light to fill you with peace and contentment embrace it as you let go of the illusion of control and replace this illusion with the divine light that encompasses all and is all as you submit the control of your world to the eternal creation you replace these illusions with contentment when you see the world around you your life your community your financial security and everything else in your life is exactly precisely and divinely constructed just for you it is at this moment that contentment enters your life meditate on this wonderful feeling of peace and tranquility let go of all you cannot truly control commit your life to focus only on the things within your ability to choose and find contentment in the unity that truly controls all slowly bring your mind back to the present take a number of deep even breaths until your mind has fully returned to your body and the present I hope this short meditation allows you to take a time out from your busy day and refocus your life and mind on the truths that allows for a content peaceful life my name is Eliezer may peace be with you
