These short guided meditations are ones I wish existed. They are topical, easy to follow, and made to feel therapeutic. They are short and combined with very calming beautiful music.

This meditation touches on the idea of "unbecoming" all the old names to pick up your true name. It is a way of framing what happens with painful experiences: we often take on a shame based name when we have hard things happen - like too much, not enough, unloveable...In this mediation we discuss why that happens and sit in the life long practice of putting down the old names to pick up your true name. You have permission to unbecome. To unbecome everything that was assigned to you in pain to make room for who you really are and who you have always been. This mediation walks us through a short journey of that process to engage with today.

Therapist warning: if you have a painful experience that is very recent this may feel like an intense mediation, proceed with great love and care for yourself and do not listen if it feels like too much right now.
