Daily Meditation Podcast #1651 Day 4 "Restorative Peace:" A Gentle Path to Peace meditation series
In this fourth episode of the Peace series, we explore the deeply cleansing and restorative Ksepana Mudra—a hand gesture traditionally used to release heaviness, emotional residue, and mental clutter. This practice invites you to gently let go of what you've been holding, especially the stress and tension that tend to accumulate during busy seasons or at the close of the year.
With your hands shaped in Ksepana Mudra, fingers interlaced and index fingers extended, you'll be guided to imagine old energy flowing out and fresh clarity flowing in. Paired with slow, steady breathing, this mudra helps clear the mind, lighten the spirit, and create spaciousness where peace can naturally rise.
This episode is a quiet reminder that release is a form of renewal. As you soften into the mudra, you may feel a subtle shift—from weight to openness, from overwhelm to ease, from holding on to letting go.
Ksepana Mudra offers you a pathway back to inner peace, one soft exhale and one gentle release at a time.
This is a replay of a series I recorded a few years ago!
ALL ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES
As the year winds down and the world grows louder with commitments, celebrations, and expectations, this series invites you to do something rare and powerful: slow down. The Peace Meditation Series is your gentle companion through the end-of-year rush and into the quiet promise of a brand new beginning.
Each episode is designed to help you release what no longer serves you, soften the nervous system, and return to a deep sense of calm—no matter what the season brings. Whether you are reflecting on the year behind you or setting intentions for the year ahead, these moments of stillness are here to steady your breath, clear your mind, and reconnect you with your inner peace.
This is not about striving or fixing. It is about remembering the calm that already lives within you. Welcome to your season of peace.
Welcome to "A Gentle Path to Peace."
This is day 4 of a 7-day meditation series, "A Gentle Path to Peace," episodes 1648-1654.
