Our Mindful Nature: Meditation Inspired by Nature to Soothe the Overwhelmed Mind and Ease Anxiety 15 min Guided Thunderstorm Nature Meditation: From Chaos to Calm
Just The Meditation
A 15-minute guided Thunderstorm nature meditation moving you from total chaos to total calm.
This episode explores how seemingly small stressors create deep emotional fractals—repeating patterns of response that pull us further into anxiety. Drawing insight from both parenting chaos and nature’s geometry, Meryl guides us to use meditation not just as an escape, but as pattern recognition and real-time course correction.
You’ll discover:
1. How to use simple breath awareness to interrupt overwhelming mental loops
2. What nature’s fractals can teach us about emotional resilience and healing
3. A subtle mindset shift to bring more compassion and calm to chaotic seasons
Tune in now to transform anxiety into insight—and calm your nervous system from the inside out.
