When we talk about meditation, very often we say things like "awareness" or "consciousness" and we can very easily brush past what any of those things mean or feel like. This meditation hopes to help the meditator become more familiar with our true self, the part of us deep down inside that is just witnessing and observing our thoughts and feelings through out our day through active listening.

The saying goes "Expectation leads to disappointment, which leads to suffering". Yes but how do we deal with those feelings? How do we push past those complicated emotions because it is hard to go through life without becoming attached to the things we care about most? Breath, my friend. It is through the breath. One breath at a time.

On this episode we talk about how kindness may be the way to help ourselves through setting and achieving new goals.

When we find time to relax, we also find a deeper way into the present moment. This meditation hopes to help you get to a relaxed state where there is not time, place, or thing, just pure consciousness and pure awareness observing through breath. One breath at a time.

Stress, anxiety, worry, frustration, rage are all lower energy vibrations bringing us down all the time. If we are not careful, we can easily get swept away by those things, all while struggling to rise above them. Through meditation and mindfulness, we can remind ourselves not to dwell on those unproductive thoughts, feelings, and emotions to raise our vibrations with things like gratitude, joy, abundance. One breath at a time.

In this episode we talk about visualization, affirmations, mantras, and changing our habits. We can't change our life without changing our mind first. One breath at a time.

Sometimes life gets so hectic and we are pulled in so many directions at all times that it is easy to becaome detached from the reality, the purity of the present moment. It's easy to feel uprooted. This meditation hopes to help ground while repeated the mantra "I AM" to remind us that we are real. We are here and we are now. One breath at a time.

Each day is so full of putting fires out and dealing with problems that arise that it is very hard to remember to take some time to relax and clear our minds so we can go through the rest of the day with some balance, perspective, and clarity. Meditation can help us with one of the most important things we could do for ourselves, remember to take a rest between two deep breaths. One breath at a time.

On this week's episode we discuss the concept of The Gap and practical applications of recognizing the space between our breath and how it applies to stimulus and response in our every day life.

Every single day, every single moment, our minds are spinning. We may not notice it all the time because we're busy being distracted by the every day chaos of life. But as soon as we sit down to meditate, to find some quiet stillness, there it is; our mind buzzing with thoughts. This may make us feel like we cannot meditate but the trick is to begin to find the space between the thought. It's called the gap and it, like our thoughts, is always there as well. Meditation can help us to recognize this gap and slip into it and over time we can learn to expand this gap. One breath at a time.
