Sunset Beach Mindfulness Meditation

Warm sand, the last light on the water and nowhere else to be. In this guided mindfulness meditation your attention is led gently through what you would see, hear and feel on a quiet beach at sunset, while bilateral stimulation, soft sound moving slowly from ear to ear as in EMDR therapy, helps the body settle into the scene. It is a short, restful pause for the end of the day or any moment you need to step away for a while. Please use headphones, as the left and right movement is lost without them. This practice is for relaxation and is not a substitute for professional help. Created by Begüm Engür, Clinical Psychologist & European Accredited EMDR Therapist.
