Beyond Thoughts - A Journey Into Present Moment Awareness

Welcome to this video episode of Listen to Sleep. Today, we're trying something new - a unique, calming meditation session recorded live on my back porch in the heart of Northern California. Accompanied by the peaceful ambient sounds of nature and our newest napping rescue dog, Joey, we delve into a journey of mindfulness. Whether you're here to find serenity before sleep or to center yourself during a busy day, this meditation invites you to simply be present and curious in the moment.

Through focusing on your breath, sensing into the space around you, and fostering a gentle curiosity, this meditation guides you towards a state of tranquility. We explore the power of presence, the art of observing without judgment, and the concept that we are more than our thoughts. This session aims to empower you to get closer to your own truth, discovering answers that come without words, and fostering a sense of oneness with the world around us.

So, settle down comfortably, be it sitting or lying down, and join us for a restful and reflective experience. Remember, there's no need to change anything or wish for something different - just be here, in this very moment.

At ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://awakenyourmyth.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, you can find six free online workshops I put together for you, a distillation of knowledge I’ve gathered over the 40 years. They’re full of practical tools and insights for approaching life as a hero’s journey of untold riches. Please let me know how you like them.
