Awakening the Child Within: A Window of Wonder

A meditation that invites you to stand at an imaginary window and look at the world the way you did as a child — before you learned the names for everything and stopped being amazed. Drawing on Rumi and Shunryu Suzuki's beginner's mind, this practice gently dissolves the habit of knowing and reopens the door to genuine wonder.

All episodes of Inner Peace Meditations are brought to you without adverts by the generous donations of listeners treating Steven to a coffee.

DETAILS

Level: All levels Practice type: Guided imagery, Open awareness Duration: 14:50

WHO IS THIS FOR?

  • You carry that quiet feeling of "is this all there is?" beneath an otherwise fine life
  • You've lost touch with wonder and everything feels familiar and flat
  • You're drawn to beginner's mind but aren't sure how to practise it
  • You want a meditation that feels more like exploration than discipline
  • You're curious about Rumi, Suzuki, or the contemplative traditions Steven draws from

BENEFITS

  • A direct experience of beginner's mind — seeing the ordinary as if for the first time
  • A shift from the habit of knowing everything to the freedom of not needing to
  • A sense of spaciousness and aliveness that doesn't require anything to change
  • A reconnection with the natural curiosity you had as a child
  • A way of looking at the world that you can carry into your day long after the meditation ends

ABOUT STEVEN WEBB

Steven Webb is a meditation teacher, podcaster, politician, and the host of Inner Peace Meditations. A former mayor of Truro in the county of Cornwall, Steven continues to split his time between politics and the contemplative work he is best known for. After a life-changing accident left him paralysed from the chest down, he found his way to inner peace through mindfulness, Zen philosophy, and the teachings of Alan Watts and Shunryu Suzuki. He now helps others find calm and resilience — especially those who find meditation difficult. Steven lives in Cornwall, England and shares his work at stevenwebb.com. You can also find his podcast on politics and public life, Stillness in the Storms, at https://stillnessinthestorms.com/
