If you have a big goal that you are working to accomplish, this meditation is focused on your personal growth and takes you into the future to visualize your abundant future.  

The 5 4 3 2 1 is a mindfulness and grounding technique that helps to calm anxiety. It draws you into the present moment to find 5 things you can see, 4 things you can feel, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell, and 1 thing you can taste.

5 4 3 2 1 Reduce Anxiety

We often get caught up in our situations and put ourselves into a victim mentality by asking ourselves questions that are not empowering. You can turn the situation around and find your inner power by asking yourself better questions. When we ask ourselves better questions, we find better answers to help us in our situation. Feel free to have a journal handy so you can journal these questions or use the in-app journal.

Empower Yourself with Better Questions

Grab your favorite beverage and take these mindful moments to enjoy!  This is great for a break in your day to take yourself away from everything else and give yourself just two minutes to truly enjoy your favorite coffee or tea.

Two-Minute Coffee or Tea Break

This meditation helps us to learn to let go of thoughts by bringing our attention back to the breath.  It's a technique you can use anytime unwanted thoughts come up and it's simple to learn.  

Back to the Breath

This meditation for healing helps to bring us back to wholeness. Heal at the cellular level visualizing healing happening all throughout your body. Picture yourself surrounded by a healing light. As you take the time to do this each day, your body starts to release physical and emotional pain. Bring yourself back with this meditation for healing.  

This meditation helps us to create subtle shifts to open our heart chakra a little at a time. The theme of the heart chakra is love and compassion. If we've been hurt in the past or are experiencing grief, the heart chakra can become unbalanced.
 
When we are able to open the heart chakra, we feel more self-accepting, trusting, compassionate, and filled with hope. You don't need to have any experience or knowledge of the chakras to open your heart chakra.

Open Your Heart Chakra

Start your day with the positive energy of gratitude! How you begin your day has an impact on the rest of your day. This energizing wake up meditation helps you to start your day focusing on what you are grateful for.

Sometimes we find ourselves holding on to anger without realizing it for days or even years. When we are upset with someone, we don't always realize that we are the ones that get stuck in and experience the negative energy that we are sending out. This meditation is about creating new positive energy. It's not about the other person. It's about the energy that we are putting out into the world. Create new positive energy by sending love.

Send Love to a Difficult Person

We often get wrapped up in our own thoughts. It is estimated that we can have over 6000 thoughts in a day, some that we think over and over and don't even realize. Thoughts can become a part of us to where we forget we can change our thoughts, especially if they are unwanted or negative.  
This short meditation helps us to become an observer of our own thoughts and helps us to remember that we are not our thoughts. It's an exercise you can use and take with you anytime unwanted thoughts appear.

Observing Your Thoughts

We often have very little time throughout the day between clients, patients, calls, etc. This is a very quick transition you can use to help mentally prepare for your next meeting. It helps you to refocus and come away from whatever you were doing to feel prepared for what's next.

Transition to Next Meeting (or Client)

Sometimes we get so caught up in our day that we forget to take a moment to be grateful. This meditation brings us to a quick moment of gratitude.

Two-Minute Gratitude Meditation

Many cultures discuss the healing power of trees and some even have their own "sacred" tree. Tonight, fall asleep in the energy of a sacred tree visualizing the beauty of nature and feeling the healing energy.

Fall Asleep Under the Sacred Tree

In this meditation, we create a beautiful ball of healing light energy that we can use to send to a loved one in need of healing or use for our own healing. Open your heart to send out some positive energy.

Ball of Light Healing Meditation

Often times throughout the day we feel stressed. This meditation focuses on bringing you back to your breath so you can take a mindful minute away from everything else and calm down. Use it when you need a break from work or anything else so you can come back to yourself and into your inner calm.


I invite you to allow this track to help you snuggle into your bed and ease into a calming, deep, restful sleep for the night.

Deep, Restful Sleep

This nighttime meditation is great for falling asleep to while you plant seeds of desire in your mind.  Your mind is.  Your mind is open to suggestions as you fall asleep at night and it is a beneficial time to plant the seeds of what you most want during this time to help them manifest and bring them to fruition. A great nightly bedtime ritual. 

Fall Asleep in the Manifestation Garden

Bunny Breath, also known as Crying Breath, is a great breathing technique for children!  It can help them to breathe easier when they are crying and help them to calm down from overwhelm and anxiety.  Caution: If this causes dizziness at all, stop. Listen with your kids or learn the technique to teach to them.

Bunny Breath (for Kids)

As we move towards a state of sleep, our minds are wide open to suggestions and possibilities.  It's a great time to visualize what you would like to manifest and bring into your life and what you would like your future to look like.  

Sleep & Visualize Your Abundant Future

Send healing energy all throughout your body to heal physical and emotional pain. Start to let go of tension as positive energy fills your body as you fall asleep. Keep this healing with you all throughout the night.

Fall Asleep with Healing Energy

This meditation is meant to help ease you in to a deep, restful sleep. Use it when you are in bed winding down for the night.

Sleep Meditation (Just Breathe)

The Third Eye Chakra is the sixth chakra of our seven major chakras (an energy system in our body). This meditation starts out with a little information to learn about the third eye chakra, and then takes us into a quick mantra and meditation to support it. 

Coming soon - short meditations for each of the seven chakras - be sure to follow me to check them all out.

Intro to the Third Eye Chakra

Take a walk with me in your mind through the autumn wonderland of leaves and fall asleep with the vibrant colors of fall dancing in your mind.  

A Walk In The Autumn Leaves Sleep Story

Remembering to count your blessings as you drift off to sleep is a powerful exercise to help you fall asleep and wake up happy and grateful. Feel free to use the gratitude prompts to journal at bedtime or simply to feel the feelings of gratitude in your mind as you fall asleep.

Go to Sleep Grateful

Let's start a bedtime ritual to fall asleep with kindness towards our bodies, our health, and ourselves.  This meditation moves through a progressive body scan to send love and gratitude all throughout our bodies as we mentally scan, relaxing into the moment to fall asleep in a positive way.
Too often we look for what we want to change about our bodies; this brings us back to kindness and self-love.  When we take care of our bodies, they will take care of us.  

Fall Asleep with Body Kindness
