Guided Meditations
I’m including 2 simple guided meditations to help slow down your mind for this Winter mini-retreat. If you’ve never meditated before, give it a try! It’s as easy as finding a comfortable place to sit, and listening to the recording.
If you already have a regular meditation practice, you may still want to include these two over the course of the mini-retreat as a means to direct your attention somewhere specific.
If you’d like to continue using guided meditations after this retreat, there are many apps available. I like “Unplug”, which has a wide variety of people leading the meditations, as well as being searchable by topic, teacher, or length of time. Another one I’ve heard good things about is “10% Happier”.
Neuroscience research has shown that meditation physically changes your brain, and my own personal experience is that it’s a fantastic tool to shift you perception, and in turn shift your reality. This is powerful stuff, and you can do it!
