Oh my, this was just what I needed today and during this fraught political period. Several of my favorite poems and a reminder that breath is home. Thank you, Hugh

Once again Hugh, you saved the day. Thank you for helping me to cope with what I'm going through. Your lovely gentle voice and wise words, alongside those of the poems, are a balm for me, bringing peace. 🩷 x

Hugh is always so well researched, thought-out, and delivered in the calm and steady voice that makes listening to some of his talks over and over again delightful. His message and his teaching style is a wonderful Highly recommend.

The poems chosen are sublime. Skillfully directing my meditation practice. Many thanks!

I enjoyed your pacing, choice of poems, and your voice. I’d like to listen again as I drifted to sleep. Thank you.

Wonderful meditation. Such a kind voice. A beautiful combination of peaceful poems and quiet pauses. 🙏🏻

Loved the poems and the connections with mindfulness! Thank you 🙏

I love everything about this meditation. Calming, centering, and inspiring. Thank you, Hugh!

I loved this! It reminded me of some fundamental principles that I had drifted away from in my practice. Beautiful poetry. Thank you!

Poetry and meditation.., sublime! Thank you so much. I also deeply appreciate that you allow long stretches of silence. ❤️

Just amazing. Experienced a deep connection to some of my favorite poetry and to myself. Thank you 🙏🏼

Gracefully blends beautiful reflective poetry with more explicit mindfulness guidance to self-reflection. I'll come back to this again.

I have been looking for this. A meditation with great poetry and free of mumbo jumbo. Thank you, Hugh. I will look for more.

Wow!
Never expected to find so many Gems at one place (or more aptly 'at one time'). A Hugh thank you!
Namaste 🙏

I feel like I’ve been given a lovely precious gem. Thank you for your generous gift, Hugh Byrne.

I could listen to
The Mary Oliver poem over and over and over . I believe it but so far I’m unable to go out in the storm. Is there an extra rain coat available. Thank you, Hugh Burns

Gratitude. This is deeply mindful, warmly nourishing.

Thank you to the person who suggested this meditation while Hugh is on leave, (though with us in spirit today). Love, courage and happiness to our world community as we gather for our Canadian Thanksgiving…
