Whether or not you have a diagnosed eating disorder, chances are good that you experience distraction, disassociation and perhaps discomfort with eating. If you do don't worry that you're alone, it's a symptom of a larger problem that we face in society today that has to do with separation from the earth and land. Most of us are too caught up in the demands of our lives to grow our own food and make sure its always the best quality.

In this guided meditation on self-awareness we'll practice bringing more awareness and healing energy to our relationships with food, and consumption in general. Through simple body-centered awareness we will attune to the natural functions of our bodies and develop the ability to sense what we consume. Through recognizing our own wellbeing we understand the interconnectivity of wellbeing to others.

This meditation is offered at the time of the Taurus new moon. Taurus rules the sensate experience, mouth, throat and food in general. Listen to my podcast on the astrology for this new moon here:

This guided meditation focuses on the evolutionary energy of life. The life process is a constant movement and creation in response to whatever is arising... The ways that elements interact and influence each other, the ways perspectives and cultures shift etc. This meditation uses cellular awareness and breath to bring your attention into the constant state of change and evolution that is your body and the environment around you. Through focusing in a friendly and loving way upon this process of transformation we develop insight into the nature of relationships and how we each, as individual agents, can contribute to greater wellbeing.

This meditation was made for the Libra full moon on April 10/11, 2017. Learn more about the astrology for the full moon here:

Thoughts happen. Our emotions are tied directly to our thoughts, and our bodies respond to our emotional state. When thoughts are confused, turbulent, and negative our emotions become cloudy and our bodies respond with stress. Simply put, unclear thinking is bad for you in every way. Meditation is a simple tool that can help you find balance, clarity, and calm in your thoughts. When you are able to work skillfully with your thoughts it easier to discern which thoughts to pay attention to and which ones to let pass on by. In this simple meditation Renee guides you through an easy visualization that helps you notice how your body and emotions respond to your thoughts, and how to return to a more balanced and neutral state.

This guided meditation is the second part of a 2-part series called Arriving in The Unknown. In this meditation we practice relaxing external control and grasping through connecting to our own center. Based in anatomy and physiology, this meditation guides your awareness into structures of support through the pelvic floor, skeleton, and spine. It also encourages awareness of fluid and organ support that facilitates a deep, inner relaxation. This technique is especially helpful for times when we feel out of balance and off of our own center.

This meditation is offered in correspondence with the Virgo full moon on March 12, 2017. Learn more about that astrology by listening to my podcast here:

This guided meditation is part 1 of a 2-part series called Arriving in The Unknown. This week we focus on the yogic principle of santosha, or contentment. Through a walking meditation (that can also be done lying down) we increase awareness of relationship; support in gravity and levity; agency and choice; balance vs imbalance; and the sensation of surrender to the flow of life. This meditation invites you to recognize the changing and shifting nature of reality in yourself and your environment, and to find peace and appreciation for what is right now.

This is a guided meditation for accessing and increasing your personal creative energy. Creativity is the capacity you have to CREATE your life in all ways - this doesn't just mean artwork, it means anything and everything you do. The creative center of our bodies is where inspiration, ideas, and thoughts meet the ability to manifest and materialize. In this meditation we focus on feeling grounded in the earth element, inspired in the sky/ether elements, and empowered in the fire/air elements.

It takes courage and compassion to see the parts of ourselves that we keep hidden, but through cultivating inclusivity in ourselves we become better able to develop inclusivity in our external relationships.

This talk and guided meditation is for when you need support working with difficult feelings or in times of personal challenge.

This guided meditation leads you through a simple yet deeply effective practice for working with your emotions. Emotions are complex and tricky- we often don't realize their influence until after we have reacted to them. To work with our emotions productively, first we need to know what and where they are. In this guided meditation I teach you how to sense emotion within a safe container and work with yourself to stay present yet unreactive.
