IRest45 Autumn Stillness: Finding Calm in Times of Change


Listen Later

Welcome to the Sit Walk Work podcast, a podcast dedicated to the art of paying attention. I’m Dominic, your host, and today’s episode is a guided meditation called Autumn Stillness: A Meditation on Change. In this session, we explore the transformative power of change through a mindful practice that you can do anywhere.

As the season shifts to autumn, we are reminded of the subtle changes around us—falling leaves, cooler temperatures—and how these reflect the internal transitions we experience. Our practice today focuses on finding moments of stillness amidst those changes, reminding us that even in periods of transformation, there’s always an opportunity to pause and reset.

Thanks for reading Sit,Walk,Work (SW^2)! This post is public so feel free to share it.

Through this meditation, I’ll guide you in tuning inward, connecting to your breath, body, and sensations. We’ll scan the body, explore the feelings of being grounded and supported, and expand our awareness to embrace both stillness and change. By the end, you’ll have created space for new possibilities, aligned with your personal intentions.

Whether you’re new to meditation or returning to it, this episode is an invitation to slow down and find grounding in the present moment. So, sit back, relax, and let’s begin this practice together. And remember, as I like to say, ‘It doesn’t work if you don’t.’ Thanks for showing up today, and I hope you enjoy the experience.”
