We often become very hard on ourselves when we face major life events. Feelings of negativity and depression can fill our mind and heart. This meditation invites you to be more kind to yourself by validating how you are feelings rather than judging yourself. Training in mindfulness shows that the wires in the brain begin to shift to more healthy and resilient areas when we no longer hold on to the events of the past or treat ourselves with more kindness and compassion.

Life as it is
I think that life is actually pretty exciting and blessing as it is. We just need to get rid of all the unnecessary, which covers this deeper truth.

I am trying to learn at 50 years old to love myself in my own skin.I have overcome many things
I need to take time just for me. I am dealing with my emotions in a positive manner and I am just mentally stronger and emotionally at peace.

Headache
This meditation helped subside my headache. I didn’t want to feel the things I was feeling, tension, throbbing, pain but the more I focused on them; the less I seemed to notice them. It was nice to place my hand where I felt pain.

Feelings
I learned that when I am depressed, I take it hard on myself and punish myself for not being happy. It’s tough to be positive when I’m overwhelmed in sadness.

Safe
Today I felt a few different emotions when asked what I was feeling. Confusion, tiredness and excitement. Confusion as something is coming to an end and reappeared today. Tiredness due to a long day and excitement for something new.

Breathing
I was panicking so much because I just had an attack but I calmed down after listening to this and counting my breath.

Hppelessness
I learned that what I was feeling was hopelessness in my heart. I learned to let this feeling be and try to breath and think in the present instead of worrying about things ahead.

Buried emotional pain causing headache
We carry things sometimes for years that we don’t allow to surface. But we need to and to be gentle to ourselves as we feel and allow.

It is okay
Whatever emotion you are feeling, it is okay. We don’t need to change how we feel because emotions do not make us. Emotions come and go.

Scattered feelings
I feel very scattered, but that's ok, as not practicing for a few days has made a difference in my whole body. Except these feelings for gratitude & what my body is telling me!

Following almost no sleep
It felt good to make a start. Heavy cold symptoms. That’s all I need to say.
