Always one of my favourite meditations. Thanks again for the coconut cream coffee & your company. Being Canadian I can't say no to maple syrup so I added my own 😊 "Meditate everything" -- I love that. 🙏 💖

Thank you for sharing. Sometimes I feel as if I self sabotage myself. I'm giving myself permission to be at peace and do what I love.

Don, very different session than my usual meditation. But also very similar to my mornings. I find a meditation to listen to and get the very first cup of coffee out of the coffee maker that is bold and fresh. A pleasant routine, as is yours. 🙂🙏

That was very unique, thank you 😊. What is the brand of coconut milk? No, seriously!
