Wonderful. One of the most treasured tools in the Insight Timer library. So helpful in challenging times… and always! Really appreciated all the options that were noted and accepted . A blueprint for accepting how it is right now cuz “How do we know how it’s supposed to be?” Thank You Mary M, Group, and Richard for adding the music! 💖🪽♾️❤️‍🩹🪷🙏🏾💕🪶🪬

This was a nice and easy way to get grounded and calm and only five minutes. I will recommend and repeat this one.

Deeply comforting. I loved it and want to allow myself to be through the day. I loved the line that we can't determine what is anyway.

Kept finding I wasn’t “simply being” all through the 5 minutes. I kept having “ideas”. I smiled everytime you brought us back to this moment. I may practice this same recording often!

The first meditation (yoga nidra) I ever heard was voiced by Mary maddux and was many many years ago. Have not stopped since. Your voice is as soothing as the first time I heard you. Very grateful.
