Our Mindful Nature: Meditation Inspired by Nature to Soothe the Overwhelmed Mind and Ease Anxiety The Antidote to "I don't have time" - The Steadiness of Stones Nature Meditation {part 1}
What if the way you think about time is actually feeding your anxiety?
In this episode, we explore how meditation can shift your relationship with time—freeing you from the pressure of the clock and helping you feel more grounded, connected, and resilient. Instead of rushing through moments or relying on timers, this practice invites you to sit with stillness and discover a timeless space within yourself.
You’ll walk away with:
A nature-inspired perspective on time that reduces feelings of being overwhelmed. Today's nature sounds come from the Eastern Cascade Mountains of the Pacific Northwest.
A meditation approach that creates mental health benefits by slowing down anxiety.
Practical ways to build resilience and deepen your connection through timeless practice.
Take a breath, let go of the ticking clock, and discover how meditation can transform your experience of time—press play to begin.
