Behind the Scenes of Happiness

A new year is, ultimately, nothing but a sequence of moments. So what if you could learn how to be with moments differently - the easy ones and the challenging ones? Mindfulness meditation can be your helpful practice. A secular skill you can learn and cultivate to bring back balance in your life, one moment at a time... This introductory mindfulness meditation was recorded during a live Calm with Christoph online event and contains an inspirational intro message and guided meditation. Suitable for beginners and more advanced practitioners. 

A spacious and sincere mindfulness meditation to help you unwind after a busy day. Includes breath and body focus as well as a loving-kindness practice.

These are extraordinary times and I have recorded this Mindfulness meditation to help you feel more grounded, hopeful, and positive. Not in a corny way, but by cultivating a meditation practice that allows you to both relax and restore, using helpful mindfulness tools.

This is a pure mindfulness meditation with lots of space to help you rest your mind in the present moment. With careful guidance, Christoph invites you to gently return your awareness to the now using anchors such as the body and the breath. This meditation is loosely based on one of the foundational attitudes of Mindfulness: Letting Go. Not by pushing things away or by ignoring them, but by bringing kind attention to whatever is distracting us.

Recorded live during a "Calm with Christoph" mindfulness event on a Sunday night, in this practice, I share the importance of a Beginner's Mind and Non-Striving to help you settle into our meditation time together. We then explore the value of bringing kind attention to whatever wants to be acknowledged so we can still ourselves even further. This is a beautifully relaxing and yet empowering meditation to process the week gone by and welcome the week ahead.

This recording is my adaptation of the beautiful and effective Lake Meditation by Jon Kabat-Zinn. Contrary to popular belief, this meditation is not (just) about visualising your way to calm. In the same way a basin holds a lake no matter what the surface of that lake looks like -choppy or calm- we can learn how to hold space for ourselves, our feelings, emotions, and thoughts. Recorded live during a Calm with Christoph meditation seminar (Sundays 7:30pm UK, see Eventbrite). No music added. Please, DO NOT listen to any of this recording whilst driving or operating machinery, or when you need full attention on something else. If you feel uncomfortable in any way during the meditation it is advisable to stop the practice and consider trying again another time.

In this “mediteaching,” Christoph invites you to relax and learn how to deepen your mindfulness practice to bring back balance. It is a helpful meditation for these challenging times. You are invited to gently explore which parts of yourself you may have been giving away -knowingly or unknowingly- lately and call those parts back to you with kindness and self-compassion.
