Inner Silence

This is a Tantric Yogic meditation that focuses on developing the attitude of the witness, in relation to the thinking mind.

We identify closely with our thoughts and believe them to be true - despite the fact that our thoughts are ever-changing and rarely based on facts. This is simply the nature of the thinking mind, but the thinking mind does not have to run the show. This meditation teaches you to become aware of thoughts as they arise. With a little bit of objectivity, we quicky learn that our thoughts do not have to define us. By learning to observe our mind thinking, our thoughts begin to effect us less and less. Once you become established in this technique, you can practice awareness of thoughts anytime during your day!

Please note: In this practice, you are invited to bring up a mildly difficult pattern of thought in order to express the mental energy around it and release it.

This was a good guided meditation. I entered the silence and swapped to watch my thoughts. I enjoyed the subtle shift in my conscious state. Another step in my journey into yoga nidra. Thank you for this.

Really enjoyed this, I'm very new to these kinds of meditations. I've been getting into yoga nidra though and it's making me want to use other tools so I can be more present for yoga nidra. When you say the minds eye, is this images instead of thoughts (words)? That's what came for me but I felt unsure of the difference between thoughts and minds eye. Also curious if this practice has a specific name or lineage so I could find more resources like this as I really enjoyed the technique. Thank you so much!

One of my favourites and it’s the only approach I’ve ever found that does manage to quieten the noise in my head. Thank you!

I was able to distinguish how full my mind is of thoughts that I’m consumed by. I was able to then find the space of no thoughts and switch freely between them. It’s subtle but so powerful. Thank you. I will return to this meditation again.

That was a really beautiful meditation. I was really able to follow your instructions and it has a great flow. Thank you 🙏

I felt grounded in my beautiful and peaceful stillness. The Best place to BE in - by letting go and finding my liberation both within and without. 🤍🧘🏼‍♂️🕊️

Thank you - Namaste 🙏🏻

Great meditation for increasing awareness. The tone of the facilitator’s voice is soothing and non intrusive when silences are broken. Calming but productive.

Good and yet challenging. Difficult to imagine mind in front of closed eyes (I default to thinking it's behind the eyes.)

Will try again.

Focused and elegantly guided, felt rested and more generously present after. Thanks Hilary!

Nice meditation to take distance of your thoughts. I notice my thoughts are calmer after this meditation. Thanks Hilary 🙂🙏
