It has been many months since the last podcast release.

Starting in August 2023 I battled Covid on and off and completely lost my voice. Over the ensuing months, my voice was whispery or raspy and sadly, my voice has never completely returned to what it previously was. I am left with a voice that, to me, makes me sound much older than I am. I am self conscious about this and this is why I have not recorded any meditations for you until now.

This morning's meditation was inspired by the sound of the song birds in my neighborhood. This was recorded outside with just my phone in order to capture the raw, newness of the day.

Find a comfortable spot, pop in the earbuds and allow yourself to escape to this meditation for a new day.

The death of a partner, friend, relative or pet is a profound loss and sense of sadness. These feelings can seem overwhelming and dark. This episode's mantras are aimed to help you heal and move forward from your loss. Pop in the ear buds, click play and allow the tears to flow. I wish you healing on this difficult journey.

In times of pain and hardship, healing begins from within. Taking the time to care for yourself can be a powerful elixir for what ails you. Today's mantras will allow you to focus on self healing and growth.
