Throughout life it is inevitable that we will lose focus on our goals. By taking time to focus and acknowledge this truth, we can prepare for and better accept distraction when it finds us. This quick meditation will give you insight and peace when you are upset over being distracted.
Grab a pen and paper and a clock that you can see seconds on (or use your phone ) for this meditation excercise. When time is moving fast due to stress, anxiety, or worries, it can help to focus on the passage of time. This excercise will focus your mind and slow down your experience of time.
This meditation focuses on loving yourself by focusing on the life give parts of our human bodies and the bodies of all living things. Once that love is felt, it can be shared with all life.

Today's meditation focuses on selflessness and realizing your place in the universe. Often we can feel like the world is out to get us, or that bad luck is controlling our lives. When you step outside of yourself and look at the bigger picture, these stresses can often be relieved.

Today's podcast is not a meditation. This is instead a walk through of visualizing what higher dimensions may look like. This is a creative visual exercise conceived by Rob Bryanton. This is not meant to be taken as science fact or to be an explanation of our universe. It is merely a way to imagine what is outside of our normal 4-dimensional (3 space, 1 time) reality.

Today’s meditation is about using simple truths and rational actions to overcome obsessive thoughts and/or negative thought patterns. Our minds are constantly seeking stasis in a harsh world and many times our negative racing thoughts are simply this act of finding a balance expressed through a mental illness. If you can accept this and see through the pattern to a concrete rational action that will bring you stasis, hope, and/or joy; you can find peace and break through the obsessive negative thoughts.

This is a brief introduction to the Zen style of meditation known as counting breaths. This is an extremely simple meditation technique practiced for centuries will help you relieve stress, focus your mind, and center your awareness.
Dave walks you through a proven stress relief breathing technique 8,4,7. When you are stressed, breathing in for 8 counts (as much you can) holding your breath for 4 counts, and then exhaling for 7 counts (as much as you can). Practicing this breathing pattern will help increase oxygen levels in your body and slow speeding thought patterns.
Life brings grief, trauma, and sadness. Whether it's the loss of a loved one, life not working out the way you expected, or something else, this meditation will help you give space to feel your grief and then move on from it to get through your day. If you're feeling really down or an overwhelming sense of malaise, talk to a friend or seek counseling. If you are in a place of grief that feels dangerous to you or others, please contact the national suicide hotline. They can be reached at 1-800-273-8255. You can also find more specific hotlines for non-suicidal grief at https://griefresourcenetwork.com/crisis-center/hotlines/
A guided meditation to help you focus on your experience even in a noisy environment. This was originally going to be a nature meditation; however, the park was busier and louder than usual. I took this as an opportunity to focus on dealing with distractions during meditations and in everyday life.
Do you have trouble sitting in silence? Find yourself always needing background noise? This meditation will help you learn to appreciate the world around you and quiet your mind to listen.
Ever have something (a ticking clock, noise from an outside room, a pet, etc) keeping you awake at night? This meditation focuses on learning to be at peace with distractions and annoyances and allowing them to lead you to a restful and restorative night's sleep.
We see every day, but do we take the time to examine and truly experience all our visual sensation has to offer? Take 15 minutes to meditate and explore your vision.
