Lou I think you are amazing. A calm force in my life, making me feel lighter and that I will get through this. Thank you. Sending you much love from Jo'burg, South Africa.

I loved the purpose of this meditation on being present with my current feelings. There was a deep sensation of acceptance without judgment from my mind. Thank You for your kind words.

First meditation I’ve done in a while, and it being this track was so necessary. Thank you Lou 🙏

This was perfect timing for exactly what I needed…permission to embrace those uncomfortable thoughts without feeling shame. Thank you 🙏

This was like a comforting breath of Spring air. THANK YOU ♡.

Really good for me today. Experiencing physical symtoms of anxiety, seemingly without provocation. I want relief of course, but instead said to myself, ok, you can be here too. I’m grateful.

Just what I needed. This too can be here. Namaste 🙏🏼

Thank you so much for sharing and teaching us your experiences. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

This was really powerful. I recently lost a pregnancy and have really struggled with how afraid I am of the pain. I had to work myself up to even try this. But it helped. It helped a lot. Thank you for helping to make my pain easier to carry. Bless you Lou. Big hugs.

Thank you for showing me a way to accept what I do not want to accept, I will come back to this guidance and use this as my mantra ❤️

IT was very helpull. Thank you very much.

This helped me be with some challenging symptoms and reminded me of the humanity in the struggle. Thank you!

Really calming and reassuring meditation. Lovely message, I always feel better allowing rather than fighting against unwanted emotions or sensations, but so easy to forget to allow it in without judgement. Thank you Lou, I would love to do a silent retreat someday but the idea scares me too. I applaud you for making it through 7 days! 😉🙏😊

Lou- Thank you for this meditation.
My teacher shares a similar metaphor... that every thought or emotion which arises can be greeted and welcomed like a guest to your table. That it is more than ok for them to be there, stay awhile, then go. The doorkeeper visual further aided me in my understanding that we aren’t meant to feel blissful all the time. Staying by the door helps us to not get stuck to the thoughts or emotions but allows them to be present...seeing them with some distance helps me with accepting them abs myself.
I’ll surely be checking out your other practices.

I was curious by your teacher profile and tried this guided meditation. To me, you transmit a grounded and calming feeling. I’ll listen to more of your work. Thank you and namaste.

Thank you! Very helpful for managing sticky thoughts.

I truly appreciate the conversational technique of this meditation. I found it easier for me to follow through my mental chatter. Allowing myself to sit with the "unwanted" emotions actually helped change the way I have been recieving them; rather than moments of discomfort i need to get away from I see them simply as messengers. Focusing on the physical manifestations was a wonderful way to identify where I have been carrying certain emotions as well. All together, this was extremely beneficial for me and i look forward to returning to this practice. Thank you for your hard work.

Fantastic Lou. May YOU be happy and healthy. Thank you!

Wonderful as always and timely. I've been struggling with a strong emotion lately and fighting the urge to run away from it. I'm going to work on allowing those feelings in and showing them some compassion. Thank you for sharing your insight.

I appreciated the calming energy and the honest truth of your experience. Thank you.
