Today's episode started coming together as a means to warm us as the weather begins to get colder. But, as I began preparing, I realized a huge other aspect to this meditation episode that I reflect on in this episode.

Emotionally, we sometimes feel a complete change of temperature when faced with difficult situations. The phrases "turns your blood cold" or "makes my blood boil" are two phrases we hear and may even say in moments of extreme emotion.

During highly emotional states, for me, it is difficult to process and make sense of what is going on and for me it is always helpful to attempt to regulate, to center, to ground, so that I can begin to process what happened/what I'm feeling.

Meditation and mindfulness have been hugely helpful for me in this.

What started off as a meditation concept to physically warm us, has also turned into a meditation to help us regulate if faced with extreme emotions. So whether you are needing to warm up or you are needing to set the temperature back in your body, I hope this meditation leaves you feeling better, freer, and calmer than when you started it.

If looking to just jump right into the meditation, head to 6:14.

Thank you all for your listens and support and I hope you have a beautiful Thanksgiving. With love, Amanda
