A Meditation on Five Factors of Stable Presence with Rick Hanson

If your mind feels scattered, anxious, or heavy with stress, this guided meditation can help you return to a place of steady calm and inner peace. We’ll gently explore five factors that support stable presence—intention, relaxation, warm-heartedness, releasing anxiety, and positive emotion—each one helping to ease worry, tension, and emotional overwhelm.

Whether you’re struggling with restlessness, self-criticism, or the feeling that your mind just won’t settle, this practice offers a grounded, compassionate way to come back to yourself.

I also offered a talk this week that focused on 3 Ways to Live with Loss, which you can see here: https://rickhanson.com/meditation-talk-three-ways-to-live-with-loss/
