Are you constantly searching for clarity in the middle of emotional chaos?

When anxiety floods your mind and the pressure to “keep going” feels overwhelming, stillness might feel like the last thing you need—but it’s exactly what this nature-inspired meditation practice offers. In this reflective and grounding episode, Meryl guides you through a mossy metaphor that gently invites you to stop, listen, and reconnect with your body’s inner wisdom.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

Why pausing—rather than pushing—can be the most resilient choice when you feel lost

How nature offers powerful parallels for managing anxiety and reconnecting with self

A simple but profound meditation technique to ground yourself when overwhelmed

Take a breath, find your moss, and listen now to reconnect with your calm center.
