A Meditation on Steadying Your Mind and Quieting It, with Dr. Rick Hanson

When you’ve been bracing against stress, holding tension in your body, or feeling like you always have to stay on guard, it can be hard to truly relax or feel safe inside yourself. This meditation helps you gently lower your defenses by recognizing that you’re okay in this moment, softening the body, and allowing the mind to settle into a sense of openness and ease. As you rest in spacious awareness, you may discover a quiet peacefulness—and even a natural sense of warmth and lovingness—that was there all along.

The talk this week focused on Accepting Your Vulnerabilities - Including from Early Childhood: https://rickhanson.com/talk-meditation-accepting-your-vulnerabilities-including-from-early-childhood/
