Stop the World... I Want to Get Off

A meditation for when everything feels like it's moving too fast and you need the world to pause for a moment. This practice uses a simple visualisation of everything around you slowing down — your breath, your body, your thoughts, even the atoms in the room — until stillness arrives and you can think clearly again.

All episodes of Inner Peace Meditations are brought to you without adverts by the generous donations of listeners treating Steven to a coffee.

DETAILS

Level: All levels Practice type: Breath awareness, Visualisation Duration: 12:22

WHO IS THIS FOR?

• You feel overwhelmed by the pace of life and need everything to slow down
• Your mind is racing and you can't seem to catch up with your own thoughts
• You want a few minutes of genuine quiet in a noisy, demanding day
• You struggle with the feeling that the world is spinning out of control
• You need a practice that helps you feel more in control without forcing anything

BENEFITS

• A felt sense of the world slowing down around you
• A calmer, less reactive relationship with your thoughts and feelings
• Two grounding mantras: "I have thoughts, but I am not those thoughts" and "I have feelings, but I am not those feelings"
• A practical reminder that the stillness of meditation is available outside of practice too
• A gentler pace to carry into the rest of your day

ABOUT STEVEN WEBB

Steven Webb is a meditation teacher, podcaster, politician, and the host of Inner Peace Meditations. A former mayor of Truro in the county of Cornwall, Steven continues to split his time between politics and the contemplative work he is best known for. After a life-changing accident left him paralysed from the chest down, he found his way to inner peace through mindfulness, Zen philosophy, and the teachings of Alan Watts and Shunryu Suzuki. He now helps others find calm and resilience — especially those who find meditation difficult. Steven lives in Cornwall, England and shares his work at stevenwebb.com. You can also find his podcast on politics and public life, Stillness in the Storms, at https://stillnessinthestorms.com/
