A guided meditation to reconnect with your wise inner guide and return to calm, clarity, and trust - with Taoist monk and teacher, David James Lees.

In this guided meditation, we gently reconnect with your wise inner guide (Shen) — the quiet, steady voice of inner truth beneath self-doubt, comparison, and inherited conditioning.

Through breath, stillness, and compassionate awareness, this practice helps you recognise the difference between the Inner Child’s fearful voice and your authentic inner knowing. Rooted in Taoist wisdom and wu wei (effortless effort), it supports Inner Child healing, emotional clarity, and living with greater integrity and flow.

This meditation is for anyone seeking calm, alignment, and trust in their own inner guidance. This is a remembering — not a fixing.
