Journey Through the Chakras
This guided meditation takes you on a journey through the seven main energy centers of the body, also known as the chakras. Think of this as an exercise in getting to know each chakra, an important first step in bringing each energy center into balance. When our chakras are balanced we open ourselves up to greater health, vitality, freedom, and overall well-being. Want to schedule your free discovery call?

Sitting with Desire
In today’s episode, we discuss and meditate on how to sit with desire, and why we would even want to bring mindfulness into moments of craving. Desire couldn’t be any more natural, we all seek pleasure, and we all want to satisfy our cravings. And while there’s nothing wrong with that, observing, understanding, and working with our desires can be so important to living a happy, healthy life. So I hope you enjoy this meditation and if you do please rate, review, share. Requests? Comments? Questions?
