I love Sharon's calm voice, it guides me so well through my breaths.

This was one of the best meditations I’ve EVER done! Thank you so much. The compassion you guided to give myself during the practise was amazing. Thank you 💚💚

So simple and so much relief!! Thank you for the reminder that non-judgment starts with the breath. ❤️

Just what I needed. Lovely guiding, your gentle voice came in just when it was needed to help refocus on the breath. Many thanks 🌸.

Really enjoyed this and how you kept reeling me in gently.!

Simple practice delivered by one of the best in the west.

Always excellent, down to earth. No need for music, just her voice is enough. Meditation practitioners should take note and KISS.

Thanks Sharon! I loved your meditation guidance at the Rubin over the years. I am in California now and live going back virtually to renew my meditation practice and hear your calming voice.

I’m looking for the 20-minute breath meditation mentioned in your book. Is there a new link?

Sehr wohltuend da Konzentration auf das Wesentliche

Helpful, short and sweet meditation. A reminder to give yourself grace with the practice.

Thank you 🙏 such a simple yet powerful practice 💜 definitely one to come back to time and time again ✨

That was great! I think I had a breakthrough this morning. I may have gotten lost in the meditation. Finally! Thank you!!

Perfect amount of guidance and silence! Will be back!

Wow. Some new guidance on breathing I’ve never heard before. “You’re not doing something weird or special” and “it’s just one breath” I will be keeping! ❤️

Thanks! This was so soothing & calming to my hiring soul. I wish to listen to your meditation many times again

I've tried many breathing medications but this one is by far my favorite. So much reassurance and comparisons to better understand the concept. It genuinely helped me.

I like that you leave space for silence. It’s very relaxing and makes focusing on breath much easier.

I love Sharon's meditations. This is a good one to do several times throughout the day. Thank you Sharon.

Just right. Straightforward, kind—very good for beginners and those who may have wondered away from their practice. Thank you for this.
