In this episode, we will explore a 12-minute guided meditation to find peace, ease, and a sense of refuge in the present moment.Today's meditation focuses on creating space in our lives. Amidst the challenges and difficulties happening in the world, such as war, layoffs, and economic instability, we will cultivate a space of refuge. This space allows us to leave everything behind and simply be with ourselves.To begin, we intentionally let go of our worries and concerns, and we tune into our body, mind, and heart to understand how we are feeling in this moment.After spending some time in this space of refuge, we will transition into a practice of loving-kindness and compassion. We will first direct these qualities towards ourselves and then extend them to all beings in the world.I hope you find joy in this meditation practice.PS: Introducing the… 🔥 FIRE Starter Group Coaching Program Connect with your big vision for the next chapter of your life and start living it in 10 weeks or less using envisioning and the power of your mind.
