Loved this. Drew's guidance was excellent and I actually managed to get fully relaxed. I'm always a bit scared of focusing on my breathing, but Drew stays with you throughout and keeps reminding you to refocus away from the thoughts and sensations. As somebody experiencing disordered anxiety, Drew's voice and manner were perfect. I'll return to this and keep practising! Thanks Drew! 😊✨

This felt freeing and like relief. One to come back to often. I appreciated the instruction at the beginning too. Thanks Drew 😊

Such a big difference in my experience as you showed me to focus on nothing important

The way I dropped into my body like a heavy stone was sensational. So straightforward and such a strong way to take care of myself. Thank you

I appreciate how blunt and honest this meditation was. It’s easy to get caught in the worries we create for ourselves when in reality, everything is OK whether we’re worrying or not.

I wasn’t bonding with this meditation and was about to bail when…I thought to myself: Maybe I’ll just try wiggling my toes and see what happens. I hadn’t heard that come up,as a meditative movement. And guess what: My anxieties subsided for a moment. I’ll be returning,
