Life throws things at us all the time. If we don’t pay attention, we get lost in the theatre. It may be pleasurable for some time, but we suffer immensely when the story turns too real (and it always does). We can be grounded like wood when we watch our mind. Pay attention to every moment and choose your thinking. Grounded in this attention, we can be flexible with what life offers us—no need to suffer!

Air is the teacher of renewal. We observe our breath and witness the change. Don’t do something to the breath, but be the breath. This is the magic of true breathwork. Practice being aware of the breath without doing anything, and let this bring you back to your natural rhythm.

Fire can teach us about intention and attention—the two ingredients for successful meditation. We set the intention to pay attention to every movement in our body, emotions and mind. This week, feel the fire within and let it fuel your intention to pay attention.

Earth teaches us about growth and evolution. We cannot control what is going to happen. Our body is at the mercy of Earth. In this meditation, we feel the power of Earth and let it guide us. Continue to feel this power in the coming week and listen to its calls.

Water teaches us the immense power of transformation. In this meditation, traveling through the inner and outer landscapes, we can let go in the flow of water. Continue to practice paying attention to water this week and listen to its insights.

We are about to start a new series of meditations. Inspired by my journey in the Himalayas, we will practice with the elements as our true teachers. In Elemental Mediation, we learn to feel the power of the elements and receive their gifts. Listen to the introduction now. 🌊🌱🔥💨

Make your own Meditation... and Stick with It. We are our own best teachers when we manage to pay attention to ourselves in action. We practice not to get lost in suffering but to see through it.

Meditation isn't about escaping our experiences with some method; it's about meeting them. By welcoming whatever arises—sensations, feelings, thoughts—we learn to truly rest in the present moment. This is where we can find a jewel. What is meant by ‘Make your own Meditation’ is to use our experience as a teacher by being aware and not lost in it. There’s a longer silence in this guided meditation so that we can practice this together.

Be with What Is: The most challenging meditation is non-meditation, not trying to do anything but simply being aware of what is. This is advanced practice because it is so simple. It goes against our desire for achievement. We are on the path when we open our heart without wanting anything in return.

Relaxation is an art we cannot even begin to master by watching movies and further stimulating our minds. With this meditation, practice 5 Channels for Quality Relaxation. They are the keys to meditative practice.
