The inspiration for this meditation came from one of my supporters who shared that they have been listening to my meditations as part of the 12 Steps. That really moved me.

I am no expert in the 12 Steps, but I have come to know them through friends and clients over the years. What I love is that their wisdom is universal. They speak to the same truths we all face when we are trying to change, heal, or simply live more honestly with ourselves.

This meditation is for anyone walking that kind of path. Maybe you are giving something up, staying sober, breaking an old habit, or learning to live with more acceptance. The process can feel slow, messy, and uncertain. It can feel like you are going nowhere at all. But when you stop and look back, you begin to see how far you have already come.

In this episode, we begin with a short reflection on the nature of change and then move into a gentle guided meditation that invites you to trust the process. It helps you rest in what is, rather than chase what might be, and reminds you that growth often happens quietly beneath the surface.

This meditation will help you

• find patience when progress feels invisible
• Stay grounded when you want to give up
• reconnect with trust in your own journey

You do not have to see the whole path to take the next step.

Trust the journey you are on. You will get there.

Guided Meditation: The Garden of Your Heart

In a world that often rewards being loud and tough, it's easy to mistake our quiet, gentle qualities for weaknesses. We might overlook our own capacity for kindness, patience, and empathy, believing they don't count in the grand scheme of things.

But what if these are not weaknesses at all? What if they are our deepest, most resilient strengths?

This guided meditation invites you on a gentle journey into the garden of your heart. Here, we will walk through a peaceful inner landscape where your unique strengths are discovered not as abstract ideas, but as living parts of your very nature, a resilient tree of patience, a clear pool of empathy, a soft moss of kindness. It is a time to simply recognise, honour, and appreciate the quiet power you already hold within.

To get the most from this practice, find a quiet space where you can sit comfortably without interruption for the next 15 minutes.
