Nice prompts to settle in, some nudges, and plenty of open space.

I thought this practice was skillfully guided. I unexpectedly had a deep appreciation for sounds. The feeling of space between sounds was noticeable and brought a feeling of peace in silence. The body awareness had lots of depth and I really enjoyed following the breath per the instructions. I feel like this practice will really help me with my concentration and deepen non judgment and full acceptance for how things actually arise in the breath and body. Thank you for this and I will definitely be using this often! I plan on exploring your other guided meditations too! Boundless Metta to you! 🙏🏼😊

Thank you for the reminder that it takes time to settle during a sit. Thank you also for mentioning seeing the calming process as both shortening the periods of distraction between periods of awareness of breathing and lengthening the periods of awareness. Thank you for the silence.

Manages to somehow keep heavy stuff light without compromise. Helped me do some important exploring without feeling swamped or overwhelmed. Many thanks! 💖
