Relaxed and Alert

Energy or relaxation

Focus on in breath for focus and energy Focus on our breath for relaxation

Perfect balance

This was just what I needed. Thank you. I will take this into my day tomorrow. In=energizing out=relaxing, releasing the tension or anxious feeling.

New understanding

While I'm still unsure of what to do with my attention when I'm not focusing on either the in or out breath, this in for energizing and out for relaxing concept is quite a revelation for me. I hope I'm able to call this back to mind when I need it, but I know the only way to really do that is practice.

Morning bkiss

Wake up and be thankful for another day above ground. Live life as if it were on purpose.

Balanced and Calm

Great way to start the day - especially if you wake up annoyed and conflicted.

1/5/18

I learned that this is important. I have healing power within me.

Weekend

I used to skip the weekend mediations but found that I really need to do them every single day!

Just relax

It's so difficult to shut the mind off. I started meditating every other day and then ever two days due to being "so busy" and before I knew it, I was more disconnected from my practice and unbalanced in life. I get to give myself 5 minutes each morning to just relax; to just be grateful for living; to thank my body for carrying my soul around.

Balancing with your breath

Today I learned how to balance myself using my breath. Who knew that paying more attention to the in breath was energizing and more attention to the out breath was relaxing. It really worked I tried both and by the end I felt balanced. Thank you Lyndi!

Mindfulness with distractions

I felt relaxed but alert doing my meditation today. There were distractions around me but it didn’t throw me off as much as it should. I feel all the stresses and anxiousness is the day go away.

Day Six

I have found that I really enjoyed guided meditation that is focused on breathing techniques.

Relaxed and Alert

This meditation was interesting. I had never considered focusing on my breathing as a means of balancing my energy between energizing (breathing in) was and calming (breathing out). Typically my focus on breathing is a means of focusing on the present and calming, but this worked, too!

Balance

The saliency balancing one's current mood purifies the outlook of today

Relaxed and alert

My observation today is that of a much more polished recorded session making a great message more pleasant to my ears. Once again Mindy shows her skills.

Relax or energize

I learned that breathing 'energy' on the inhale helps to energize me or breathing 'relax' on the exhale will calm me or release anxiety...

Relax

I learned how to relax and balance my energetic especially when I can’t seem to focus

Relaxed and Alert

My inhalation can be quite shallow so I need to focus on breathing more deeply so that my exhale can act as a tension release. It is interesting to know that we can use breathing as a means of making us more alert. My focus has always been on calming myself or relieving pain. Thank you for the lesson, Lyndi.🙏🏻

Balance isn’t easy to fond

Breathe in... Breathe out.... Breathe in... Breathe out.... It’s amazing what breathing can do.

16/365

Today I learned that while meditating it is important to be in touch with your body and how it is feeling when you are listening to your breathing. I enjoy laying down when meditating and that can lead me to feeling drowsy or drifting off, and so learning about the intake breath and how important it is to help you stay alert was really interesting to me.

Deep Breathing

I liked the emphasis placed on attention to the in breathe or the out breathe depending on if you want alertness or calm.

Balancing the breath

Doing that could easily help me stay relaxed and be alerted at some surroundings at all times.

Relaxed & Alert

My mind wandered a bit when doing this, but breathing does help me to overcome a lot of things.

Balance

I like how the focus of today is balance. Energize or relax. Love using the breath in this way.

Out breathe and relax

I learned that I have more difficulty in controlling outbreath which is tied to relaxation and maybe this is the reason behind being too energized and anxious.

Tuesday 1-23-18

I learned I was a little more relaxed than alert and that to change this, pay more attention to the way I breath. Assertiveness played a big part in this meditation for me. Thank you, Mindy. Have a nice day, Everyone!😀

Interesting strategies

It was interesting to try both the different strategies discussed here - I think I will be able to use them in the future too.

Balance

I can’t believe how much more balance I got when I truly focused

I learned

I can use breathing to energize or relax during the day. This can help me at work or any time I start to feel an anxiety attack.

Alert and relaxed

Using the breath to energise and calm led me to a place of equilibrium which set me up well for the day. A lovely practice 🙏🏼

Releasing breath into relxation

I learned that my anxiety can be released by the outbreath.

Hummm

I did not like focusing on breathing. It did not help me to relax but instead, caused me to focus on the fact that when I try to focus on breathing I start to breathe erratically. Oh well, tomorrow is a new day.

Come as you are

I like that this one gave you options to embrace as your present energy and gave multiple paths of guidance.

Breath

The in breath is energizing and the exhale is calming. Find a balance bw energy and calm

Breathing

Focusing on the Inhale is energizing, focus on the exhale is relaxing.

Focus

Feeling relaxed, focus and alert during the meditation helps bring away stresss and live in the now and calmness.

Relaxed and alert

Focusing on the exhale helps to relax further. Focusing on the inhale helps to make more alert.

Focus and relaxation...

Are both possible at once.... thank you, Lindy! (I used to dislike her tone, but lately she improved greatly... Love her now. Her voice is like a song).

Relaxed and Alert

If I am feeling Alert I have to focus on my out breath and if I’m feelings relaxed focus in my in breath

What I learned

I learned that it is ok to feel anxious, because that’s showing that I care. I need to take each day like it is my last.

Breathing

I learned that the in breath and the out breath can have a different effect on my body. I enjoy choosing which one to concentrate on to get the desired outcome.

Relaxed and Alert

I was still distracted by my pets but was able to come back and focus. Appreciate others comments as we/they share these few minutes in our lives. They are very helpful

Balance

At times I feel I am on a tight rope, barely balancing, about to fall at any moment. Other times helping hands are there to support and help me up. Whatever scenario there is still that support, whether the air as you fall or the ground to cradle you. It’s how you see the support and use it to stay balanced or picking yourself up afterwards. Support comes in many forms and sometimes it is the perspective of time that makes you realise that when you thought you were alone you really weren’t.

Focus on letting go

I learned that I focus so much on the things that are the smallest in the grand scheme of things. If we are to truly let go then we need to focus on the exhale. This was a good start to my morning

Relaxing

Just by focusing on the breath, I am able to ease my anxiety and relax by being present in the moment.

Breathing

Energizing and relaxing your body through the use of breathing is a remarkable tool. I throughly enjoyed this session.

Breathe

It’s easy to worry about the future and dwell on the past but that only adds anxiety and stress to my body. The best way to counter that and to stay present is to focus on breathing. I think I personally will Work on focusing on the out breath especially.

Alert Breathing

Inward breath = alert/energy Outward breath = relaxation This is something that can be used throughout the day in all facets of stress and frustration.

2/19/18

I learned how to help myself relax more by following the exhale. To energize myself, I have to follow the inhale. This was a lovely meditation for a Monday morning and I hope to carry these practices with me throughout the week

First day

I learned that it might not be as easy as it seems, I mean, to focus on breathing and all of this.

In and out

Focusing on different aspects of the same breathing moment can have radically different outcomes. What I choose to draw my attention to can awake my mind or calm it. That’s pretty powerful stuff.

bird watchers in the park

saturday morning early spring the ranger explains pointing they all listen look on attentively binoculars backpacks bottles of water khaki pants hiking boots sun hats ready to feast their eyes on the living treasures who reside around the pond the surface glitters as a blue heron lifts off her wings spread magnificently just above the ripples I hear them gasp in pure delight It’s just the beginning of a beautiful day

Relajación en alerta

Justo antes de comenzar la sesión, tenía un molestar en la cabeza. Era una especie de dolor punzante. Comencé a respirar y a aceptar la situación. Al terminar ya no tenía esa incomodidad. Cuando hablaban del mindfulness based stress reduction me resultaba interesante. Ahora puedo notar algunas cosas interesantes.

Focusing

It actually helped me focus on what I was doing instead of on my thoughts

Progress

With continued practice, I am more easily able to notice when my thoughts are creeping in to meditation time, and I am more easily able to observe, let the thoughts go, and refocus on my breath.

Energy from in breath

Surprised to learn that focusing on in breath, rather than out breath, brings energy and alertness. Definitely going to use daily.

Relaxed and Alert

You are able to take breaths to calm and energized your soul.

Relaxing, though I couldn’t get away.

Relaxed, even in a busy room. I focused on her voice and my breaths and found a lovely balance.

Journey into Mindfulness

I noticed that it was a little more difficult than just tuning out your thoughts- not quite so simple a task. Meditation isn’t as easy as it sounds but I can tell it’s gonna be worthwhile

Good for all times of day

I can use this for a range of moods throughout the day to restore balance

I was trying to go back to sleep at 2am and it helped

I mean I didn't go back to sleepy but it made me extract tired

3/12/18

I noticed I felt more at peace and I learned the balance of my breath

My first time using this app

I could tell I was too alert on what was around me. I need to find a quieter place! But once is fixed the problem and took my attention back to myself I was better!

first time using aura

i learned that i am a little bit more anxious than i discover. i need to focus on my outer breath

day 1

i noticed just starting they found something to perfectly match the state of mind i was in and help me come to an ease

My first time

I noticed that I wasnt really calm and relaxed like I thought I was. Now I feel relaxed and less tense.

Relaxed and alert

By taking in more mindfulness breaths and exhaling gently i can be relaxed but not drowsy

Relaxed and Alert

I felt very calm. Focusing on breathing is something I have never done and it was very effective in relaxing me

First session with aura

I am more tense than I think I really am. It’s nice to focus on something as simple as breath for a few moments especially when simple things like that don’t happen during the day.

Relaxed and alert

I learned that focusing on breathing specific breathes can help you find balance in your mind.

Első

Hát most nem tudtam koncentrálni eléggé mert ébredés után vagyok. Next time!

Breathing

I think that I might be getting there , I was concentrating . But cause of exhaustion , I kept yawning and concentrating on that .

Breathing

Breathing in is energizing. This is helpful in the morning !

First 7 minute meditation

Felt the brief catch of being in the moment but got pulled back out. I will focus on “moment” and work to sustain it in my future meditations.

3/15

i was feeling a little too relaxed and this helped me get some energy

In vs Out

I learned that the breath in engerizes while the breath out relaxes. Never thought of it that way before

Balancing breath

I can feel more energized by concentrating on the in breath. I can feel more relaxed by concentrating on the out breath. Breathe in. Energize. Breathe out. Relax.

I really like this one.

I learned that it is possible to relax and not fall asleep... and how to stay alert.

Relaxed breathing

Clearing my mind, and focusing on the out-breath allowed me to clear my mind and focus on calming my body

Bingo

Great, simple meditation today! Never heard of dividing my breath into 2 phases. In breath=energizing phase, out breath=calming phase. Coffee jitters are gone and I am balanced ready for my day! Thank you for the knowledge!

I felt very calm and relaxed. It helped me calm down and soothe my thought enough to feel tired

I learned that breathing in and focusing on your breathe and not the other things in the world for a moment can relax you

A Start

I need to concentrate more. My mind is too busy and couldn’t completely relax.

A Good Start

I felt very good, my feelings improved and I can now sleep easily. I learned that with a little help from the aura app will definitely make a big change.

i felt the same i’m not tired and i have many doubts and things going through my mind right now.

i didn’t really learn anything from this... it was very bland and didn’t give much advice or anything

I kept thinking about work when I’d get deeply relaxed

Controlling the pace and depth of my breathing helps to keep focused on clearing the mind.

I was really stressed before

I closed my eyes and lauded down when I felt warmth come on me and thought of my safe place I felt relaxed and didn’t even want to set my alarm for the next morning I just wanted to sleep

Cooperative States

Alert doesn’t have to mean hyper aware, Relaxed doesn’t have to include malaise. They can coexist healthily within you.

Breathing

I learned that breathing deeply in and out is an easy way to clear your mindset and reconnect you with yourself.

Deep breathing

I concentrated on my breathing which allowed my thoughts to slow down. I’m still new to these techniques so it doesn’t come naturally and I feel I’m having to work hard to try to relax. All in due time I guess...

Relaxed & Alert

I learned that if I want to be more relaxed, I should focus on the out breath & if I need more energy & to be more alert I should follow the in breath closely.

Day 1

I learned I am very distracted today. Should I confront what’s distracting me even though I know how it’ll turn out?

I learned that...

A little specialized concentration for a few minutes helps maintain my larger focus on deep work.

Less anxious

I feel less anxious being reminded that I am not my actions, thoughts and feelings. I am an observer of these. I am so much more.

Excellent

Not only did this help me feel more relaxed, but now I know 2 other meditations as well.

Relaxed and alert

This is a great reminder that we can use the breath to influence our mood. Need more energy than concentrate on deep in breaths. More relaxation then concentrate more on slow out breaths. Great advice and it really is effective.

Wandering Mind

I had an unusually difficult time focusing. My mind kept wandering... am going to do it again to see if I can do better.

Energizing...

Very effective tips! I felt more and more energized with each breath and noticed how deep I was breathing. Love the heightened awareness to look at different parts of the breathing cycle and be able to use them for what I want and need. Thanks Lindi spot on again! ❤️☮️

Alert/Relaxed Balance

Too alert leans towards stress, while too relaxed leans towards sleepiness. I need to strive for the middle ground. Namaste

Energizing Breath

I never thought of the inhale as the energizing breath and the out breath as the relaxing phase. Good way to find balance within.

Noticing things

I noticed that I see things ‘normally’ how others feel I should and not how I truly want to see them

Alert and Relaxed

I noticed that I felt a really lovely balance doing this meditation, and it was definitely the right thing for my to do this morning before a long shift at work.

Moving forward 🌞

There’s nothing like a good breathing meditation to clear the mind and relax the body. Breathing in the energy and breathing out anything that I don’t need. After a night of struggling to fall asleep I finally did but my day was wasted. I’ll need to just let that go because dwelling won’t change anything so I’ll just focus on moving forward. Done✅

Not really instructive enough.

This meditation focuses on the finding balance, but didn't tell me how to reach this balance.

05/26

I learned to focus on my breathing and push the thoughts away.

Distracted

Today I learned that when I return to my wave of breath I can imagine energizing waves flowing in and feel my body really relax on the exhale. I can be relaxed and alert if I find the balance of the waves

I’ve been having trouble w a lot of boys and my heart is kinda broken..

To take time and take deep breathes and just to know everything will be okay.

Too relaxed

I’m usually zoned out & alert during meditation so this actually helped me focus more

Relaxed/Alert

This one's a keeper for me. The meditation itself: I like being told that I can be comfortable- sitting down or laying however I feel. I like being told I can close my eyes and relax or...not. I like this speakers voice but I also like that she leaves moments of silence to let me just be. I did not feel that these were 'pauses' in her thoughts or sentences. I felt a true moment of silence. A completion of thoughts if that makes any sense. 🧘‍♀️Also, I had previously never given much thought to the idea of being able to be in a state of "relaxed-alertness". I only know "high-alert".

Compassion

I fall, and struggle to get up. But if I can take these moments to get some perspective, to see that I haven't fallen that far. To notice that I've risen after failure in the past, it all seems a little less daunting. And at the end of that, some self-compassion helps me to see that I'm human, and that we make mistakes so we can learn. Xo

Balancing Act

Breath is the key. Feeling "too" of anything - be it much or little - can be balanced by our breathing. Isn't it intriguing that focus on phases of breathing has different impacts to our feelings? Focus on the inhale energizes. Focus on the exhale relaxes. Remembering to see what we feel as we begin, can make it more satisfying after practicing midnful breathing.

Relaxed

I did feel very relaxed during and a little after this. It didn’t last long but it’s nice to remember to focus on my exhalation for future references

Relaxed and Alert

This did help me actually. I feel more relaxed and not as anxious.

Relaxed and Alert

I feel as though I was more alert then relaxed due to the distractions and interruptions from my brothers 😒 I still came back to putting all my attention on this meditation and just being more relaxed after doing homework.

Tuesday

How soothing it can be to take time out of you day and just BREATH

Amazing

It feels great tl be connected to myself after a long tiring day or at the start of the day.

balancing

I didn't know you could balance your level of alertness and relaxation so this meditation has been very useful.

I feel much more calm

The breathing techniques used, relaxed but also made me much more aware. I learned that the two can be intertwined and don’t necessarily have to be two different feelings.

It’s good to have options

I like that there is a difference way to experience a deep breath, depending on what you need at the time. Good to remember. Namaste

Noice!

Been some time since I've been served up an Aura session with Lyndi! Needed this relaxing time after having spent the morning on the phone and the web working out several issues with state offices and a bank! Have a wonderful day tribe!

So relaxing

For almost all of my life I have struggled with anxiety and anxiety related insomnia. This track helped me release the thoughts making me anxious. Highly recommended for those with anxiety!!

I am enough, just as I am

I learned that these affirmations come back in moments where I need them, when I need them.

today was better than yesterday

I feel really out of place in my own body. this helped to feel in place again

Thankful

Today I am grateful for time. The time to heal and strengthen. We so often try to rush it, but I'm just thankful it's there and eventually helps us turn sorrow into strength.

Just 3 minutes

It’s amazing how in just 3 minutes I can really relax & & settle my mind!

I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER

I feel so much better after I did this trust me if you have got this app you didn’t waste ur time buying it. And also why your on the app you didn’t waste your time

I feel so good

I leaned to focus on my breathing while keeping my thoughts together

relax

it's easy to relax when yu set ur mind to it. I felt calm. I felt centered. the breathing really helps/works.

I learned that

If you are drowsy you must focus more on your in breathing because it’s the most energizing portion of the breathing and if you are too relaxed you need to focus on your out breathing

I felt my emotions as they are, realizing that they are

I realized that my emotions are not me and that I shouldn’t b so harsh and judge myself on things I have no control over.

im a bad person

and a scapegoat for others to hop on and use when they feel bad i am ashamed of who i am and what this world means to me i am forever ashamed i will never find the end this is purgatory

good meditation

i enjoyed this meditation. it doesn’t tell you what to do, and really focuses on breathing, which is what i think every meditation session should have.

It was good

I enjoyed the session very much. The best part being opening you eyes and feeling refreshed. However, whenever I use aura my breathe gets heavy and I start feeling uncomfortable in breathing.

Energizing breaths

I often struggle with falling asleep when meditating. I like that this recording addresses that, telling me to focus on the inward breath in order to energize.

Understanding breathing

I learned What inhaling and exhaling does. Never knew the difference.

Breathing

I learned to focus on the out breathing when I need to be more relaxed

Differences

It was helpful to understand how even within the breath itself, there are different parts/methods to helping you stabilize your mood and get centered within yourself.

Balance

...is hard to achieve and even harder to maintain. We can be aware of the difference and keep working on it- that has to be enough. Namaste

Overly alert and equally balanced

If you feel to relaxed take a deep breath and focus in the “in-breath”

Nervous, But Slowly Healing

My physical well-being has been a little out of wack since I had come down with the stomach flu about a month ago. I am very stressed between worrying about my own problems as well as schoolwork, but nothing seems to want to calm me down. This helped a bit, but I crave more time to relax and tell myself that my body will heal, I will recover. This is life, and I will get through this.

Alert

Focusing on the out breathe helped me not to be distracted by thoughts

Relax

Coming back to focusing on breathing instead of letting my thoughts wander off helped me being less anxious

Balanced

This meditation helped me to feel balanced inside. Alert but also relaxed at the same time

Tranquillity

I learned that peace is possible through breathing and patience. It’s nice to not be stressed for a little.

Thoughts

I learned that many thoughts run through my mind. It was very peaceful to just let them come and go.

Balance

I learned that the in breath is energizing & the out breath is relaxing, & how to balance the two. This was super helpful!

Day Tweleve

I liked this meditation, but unfortunately I had kids arguing in the background to really focus on it 😅 I didnt sleep last night. Went to bed at 1 am, woke up to my dog coughing at 7:30 am. Then kids wouldnt stop talking. So that’s fun ahah. Laid in bed until 10:23 am, then got up, made 2 boxes of Mac and cheese. Now I’m laying in bed. Might take the kids to the park later if grandma’s up for it.

balance

life is about being able to find balance in everything we do. balance in the way we eat, friends and family or work, and even in our breathing. if you are feeling too stressed, you focus on the exhale - relaxing. but if you’re too tired, focus on the inhale - energizing.

first meditation

i fell ok but i'll try to get some sleep because i think i have insomnia and that's why i got this,because i can't sleep

X

I learned that through meditation I am even able to energise.

Energizing breath

I like the idea that the in-breath brings you energy. I haven’t thought of that before. You can not just breathe, but use your breath to help balance your energy if you are feeling tired or overstimulated. I’ll try that more!

Great

It helps sooth your mind It is now my go to if I feel anxious

Breathing anxiety away

I was really stressed out and anxious but it actually helped. First I thought it wouldn’t help because I am just too anxious right now but after some repetition I really did relax.

relaxed and alert

during this session i focused on breathing and felt a balance between relaxed and alert.

Relaxed and Alert

I learned that concentrating on the present can help you to relax and the out breath can help in the relaxation process.

Relaxed and Alert- no buts

It’s difficult for me to be totally relaxed without drifting off to sleep. Still working on a goal to be well rested each day. Namaste

04.04.2019/01h54

I felt pretty comfortable. This was a nice calming exercise. I was not only able to focus on myself but also my surroundings. I like how she went silent at different points throughout the session so we could try the activity.

Relaxed and alert

In will remember to check in throughout the day and see if I am balanced. If I am not, I will return to this breathing exercise.

balancing

I had no idea that balancing focus on different areas of the breath was a thing. but now I ma going to focus on breathing in and out whenever I need the stress relief or focusing exercise and focus on certain breaths at a time

Changing lifestyle

I learned that to dont have acné, I have to be relax and do meditation. I thought I didnt like it and I got more stressful but now I do meditation before I go go bed and I am really thinking to buy premium♥️

29/05/19

I learned that it is useful to focus on the out breath when feeling anxious and focus on the in breath when feeling too relaxed.

At peace

I get so great and both relaxed and alert from simply focusing on my breaths. Who would have thought something so simple would be so relaxing and make such a big difference:)

10092019

Being mindful in my breathing relaxes me. As I concentrate on the pure simpfulness of it, I feel free from thought. 🙂🤗

Breath

Focusing my attention on relaxing when I breath out really helps me calm down. I can imagine how it can work the opposite if I focus on the in breath when I need to feel energized.

Breath

Focusing my attention on relaxing when I breathe out truly helps me calm down. I can imagine how focusing on the in breath can assist with feeling more energy.

Balance

Breathing out mindfully does help me be more calm and breathing in is energizing.

Anxiety/ Panic Attack

I need to keep my sugar levels up - on the way to the airport I had a v small panic moment. Katie came with me to get some food and Irn Bru and felt better 😊

Perfect Balance

Focusing your attention on your breath can help energize or relax your body. During this session, Lyndi guides you to focus on your exhale if you are looking to relax. This will help relieve any tension you are feeling. If you need a boost of energy, focusing on your inhalation will help give you a boost. Focusing my attention on my breathing gave me the perfect balance of feeling energized as well as relaxed. I am feeling centered. This was exactly what I was looking for. Thank you Lyndi for an excellent session! I will definitely revisit this one.

Balance

Controlling my breathing can keep balance of relaxation and alertness

Energy Boost

Feeling a little sluggish this afternoon, I decided to revisit this session for an energy boost. It is also a wonderful session if you need to relax. With my eyes open, I focus mainly on my inhale breath which is the energizing breath. If you are looking to relax, your exhale will be your main focus.I inhale deeply and exhale normally. After doing this a few times, I feel the energy boost I needed which then I let my body just breath normally for the rest of this session.

Yin & Yang

Never had I realized the dichotomous nature of a breath. Perfectly harmonious. Like yin and yang. Energizing inhale and relaxing exhale. The number of breaths I’ve taken in my lifetime .. only to realize now that our body already has a way of keeping us balanced. We can’t have one without the other. Can’t be too much or too little. It is acknowledging the opposing entity that we are we able to recognize the other half that makes it whole. All we have to do is breathe and pay attention. What a gift from the universe.

Somewhat More Alert

Before this meditation, I felt lazy and distracted. This meditation is very simple: following the breath while using different techniques to maintain a balance between relaxation and alertness. Although I didn’t feel particularly energized following the meditation, I do feel a bit more alert.

Relaxed and Focused

Today I feel very relaxed and very calm Meditation has a powerful impact on how you think, how you feel, and how you see the world

Relaxed

I went with this mediation because I felt too alert before bed. As I began the focusing on my breaths, I really felt relaxed and balanced.

Be Zen

I learned that... Be calm relax yourself Be soft Breath Be stable Don't be alert Relax on out breath

Easier to focus

You can relax with things going on around you, just keep your focus on what you’re doing and push the other things aside

New Energy

I came back to my breath every time I wandered and found myself clam and my anxiety passed away like a calm wave in the lake. Thank you

Relaxed and Alert

I liked this breathing practice to help you be relaxed but alert. You should feel alert and energized on the in breath and relaxed on the out breath.

Tough times

I learned that I really needed this right now. My relationship is going thru hard times and my anxiety is up.

balance

i loved this meditation as it kept me at a balanced state of mind. i wasn’t too relaxed like some of the meditations i have done, but i also wasn’t concentrating too hard which would get me stressed out. just a balanced state of mind where you are calm but also alert :)

Balancing energized and relaxed

I never knew that the in and out breaths were for different reasons; energize with the in breath and relax and calm down with the out breath.

I loved today’s meditation lesson

I learned that if you meditate it helps you feel like you are always calm and relaxed and not even thinking about kambrisha and I don’t think anything about the negative things anymore because when I meditate I don’t feel like I need to believe anything anything anyone says about me and I talk to myself and really I feel like I’m being bullied by other people but I don’t pay it any attention because I’m talking to the father about my friends Eric and Caroline that go to church with me in Wortham I treat them like brother and sister and my friends Kelli Anne Amanda amber & my other friends from Sunday school too I don’t pay others any attention that is why I always talk to myself me and god have each other

Relaxed and alert

Three are so many times that I tell myself that I am practicing my breathing but really my mind is running everywhere and my breath is short. This session was very helpful
