The Charlene Gisele Show Guided Relaxation: From Stress to Calm in Just 14-Minutes
In this guided relaxation episode, I guide you out of constant thinking and into direct sensory experience. This meditation uses memory-based anchoring through all five senses to help you shift from mental overwhelm into embodied calm.
This isn't a conversation or interview. This is your personal relaxation companion. I walk you through a scientifically grounded technique that activates your parasympathetic nervous system by anchoring awareness in sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. Each sensory memory creates a physiological shift toward ease and presence.
Whether you're stuck in analysis paralysis, feeling disconnected from your body after hours of screen time, or simply need a midday reset, this meditation will help you transition from the thinking mind to the feeling body. And the beauty is that these anchors become yours to use anytime, anywhere.
What this meditation includes:
- Breath foundation: Gentle settling through extended exhale
- Visual anchoring: Recalling a calming place from your own experience
- Auditory anchoring: Bringing to mind soothing sounds that signal safety
- Olfactory anchoring: Accessing comfort through remembered scents
- Gustatory anchoring: Tasting memories of warmth and enjoyment
- Kinesthetic anchoring: Feeling supported through touch sensations
- Integration: Blending remembered calm with present moment awareness
- Grounded return: Coming back feeling steady, clear, and centered
