White Throated Gerygone and Friends

That was not guided meditation. That was not at all what I needed.

Not okay, I wanted a guided meditation session and that was the last thing from a guided meditation session.

Lovely

Just to sit in the silence of my room and listen to the birds chirping to me...perfect!

Good morning 😊

I love listening to the birds 🐦 singing 🎶 as I wake up! They weren't awake and singing as early as I got up today so this was rather neat :-) although I wish it would have last longer 😉 have a wonderful day everyone 💕

Birds!

Nature can be a guide. No words needed! I feel good after doing this meditation and connected.

Relaxing

Helped with stress from finals week! Thanks! Relaxed me, but my mood didn't seem to improve.

It's day

I learned that I need to slow down and be present. Breathing deeply for three minutes is doable.

Sounds of nature

A wonderful way to get my morning started I will be thankful for each morning I awake. It gives me one more day to get to know me.

7th Day of Bettering Myself for Myself

Something as simple as the sounds of gave me the most wonderful feeling. It is the first time in weeks I have felt warmth coming from within myself. I am aware that this happiness is momentary, just as every state of emotion is, and I am working towards being okay when I move to my next conscious state.

Peaceful?

The sounds of nature in this meditation were too much for me. So many birds chirping . . .

Peaceful Birds

Today I had a hard time focusing and not letting my mind wonder on what I needed to do today. I do love the sounds of chirping birds and nature.

Best tweets ever

I learned why I plant flowers and trees that help the birds thrive. Their songs are my songs.

Peace?

I learned that sometimes you need to just take a deep breath and listen to your surroundings.

Perturbed

A locust in my jaw, there are no bugs with wings there is no sky in which to fly

Snow Day 11-8-17

First, I like how we cannot really choose our meditations, but I saved this meditation for those who like a little nature. I certainly wasn’t expecting it, but it was a nice pace since there is snow on the ground. It brought calmness, I can felt like I was walking on a guided path or sitting on a rock, one with nature. Thank you Aura! Have a good day, Everyone!

Very nice

It was so relaxing that I almost fell asleep and the outro startled me 😄 nature is definitely the way to go for relaxation

Nature Appreciation

Take time everyday to listen and appreciate the natural beautiful nature around me.

Simple mediation with nature sounds allows you work on breathing

This is a great meditation for working on your breathing. Simple and short.

Nature Heals

Amidst the bustling city life, we must find our own space and time to hear the birds, to hear the wind—that is peace.

Prefer spoken word

Didn’t care for just hearing nature sounds. But, in a good place today already, so all good.

Sound of nature

Sometimes it’s easier to relax to the sounds of nature and really appreciate the sounds when I separate sound from the other senses and the other elements of nature- no weather, no bugs. I feel honored to be able to spend a few minutes and really listen to the language of the birds. Namaste

True nature

These beautiful bird voices really opened my heart and I found myself sitting here quietly smiling. Thank you for a reminder of the potency of nature to restore energy. 😊

Nature

The sound of nature made me feel like I️ was free that was my favorite sound so far. I️ felt like I️ was by myself lost

Nature sounds

Hearing the birds was extremely relaxing and comforting. Right now it is extremely cold and the ground is covered in snow. This reminded me of spring days and the freedom to go outside and enjoy the sounds.

Day 6 January 6

I personally did not enjoy today’s session. All of the chirping made me feel like my mind was going a million miles an hour and I could not focus or unfocus on anything. Could be my own personal mind and the day I was having (doing this meditation before bed) but I felt just as anxious as I did before I started the session

Sounds of nature

Words aren’t the only way one can calm another. Simply enjoying the sounds of nature can are very calming as well.

Relaxing

I learned that I need to learn to relax more and not get so involved with drama. I feel great and nothing can stop that tonight:)

Listening to nature

Letting myself be still for even a few minutes is hard in the morning. Often times, being still doesn’t feel productive and if I wanted to practice meditation, I feel obligated to work on my breath or something that makes it “productive.” But this was never about productivity. It’s about choosing to take care of myself, a few minutes at a time, multiple times a day. It’s about feeling my emotions, not bottling or numbing them until I explode. Meditation isn’t a race, nor is it something to perfect. It’s about honoring and observing the ever-changing relationship I have with myself and God.

Bird Friends

I learned that listening to bird sounds brings be back to that time when I was 12 and I actually had a hobby.

nature

the sound of nature makes me feel free and relaxed. i felt happy just listening to the birds chirp

Nature

Listening to nature is really relaxing 😌 it is nice relaxing nature walk is calming & feel less stress & refreshing

Birds

I’d like to travel somewhere tropical. I see myself in a forest surrounded by nature’s beauty, sounds and majesty. I’d like to be present in that moment and truly appreciate it.

Nothing

I didn’t learn anything, I don’t understand any of this. I’m also not sure what to write, I’ve been told to write more, but what else is there to right when you don’t understand any of this?

Soothing

I felt light and calm it was really nice for a change. I hate that it’s telling me to write more though it’s quite annoying but whatever

Calmness

I felt my mind come to ease but my physical body still is kinda sucky

Unease

I was lying alone. Blue sky above, beautiful green forest all around. But to my left, just over my shoulder, there loomed a terrifying black bear. All torn up and growling. It came right at me. I barley managed to finish, and not without being terrified in the process

The Sounds of Nature

I loved this meditation! So soothing and relaxing! Thank you.

Happy memories

This meditation reminded me of family trips to the Zoo and hiking. I imagined what it would feel like going to a real forest with loved ones. I felt like I was on the same path of a nearby trail that traveled along forests and my neighborhood. It was soothing and relaxing!!!

Home

I grew up in the country and these meditations always take me back to sitting on my bed with the window open in the summer time. I could hear the frogs peeping and the birds chirping. It is truly the sound of happiness for me ❤️

Let go An let the energy flow

You are the creator of all your thoughts let go An let the energy flow 💫

Surprisingly hard to stay mindful

I found myself drifting off to thoughts of when I was younger and the awesome amount of time I got to spend in nature. Then, I realized how much I miss it. I tried acknowledging the thoughts and going back to mindfulness, but I found myself fading off into past memories in nature. That’s okay though. I’m still a work in progress though.

Birdsong

Was able to stay mindful this morning. Nature has a way of soothing me. Great start to me day!

Bird Friends

These lovely birds brightened my morning. Nature offers me such beauty and peace.🙏🏻

The Sounds of Nature

There is something about nature that I find very calming and very peaceful. I enjoy nature because of how beautiful and how much I appreciate it

Whistling thorns

The tweeties calmed me instantly. I found myself drifting towards my childhood memories when I used to wake up to whistling of birds just outside my bedroom window. I felt nostalgic

Attention restoration

I learned how challenging it is for me personally to focus on Nature Sounds without thinking about them. I made it my goal just simply focus on the sounds, but that was hard as I kept wondering but what birds were making the end of it all sounds. I guess aura created these attention restoration meditations said that we do users cannot be better where I want to remind you were doing seems like a very helpful idea. Also since the app recommends an intelligent restoration notation every 90 minutes yes reinforced that I should take breaks more often than I do so I guess I also learned that from this meditationI will keep this in mind as I go through my day. Enjoy your days everyone
