Stevens new course: Finding Peace in Everyday Life (you choose how much to pay)Support Stevens work and links to other podcasts: stevenwebb.ukDonate paypal.me/stevenwebb or Buy Steven a coffeeThis is a gentle Zen influenced meditation on giving space to thoughts, feelings and body sensations.Steven Webb guides you through the image of a closed shed and then an open field, so you can feel the difference between being crowded by what arises and giving it enough room to be seen clearly.We begin by arriving just as we are. No forcing calm. No pushing thoughts away. No trying to fix every feeling that appears. A thought may appear, a feeling may appear, a pain may appear, or a worry may appear. The practice is to notice it without immediately following it, arguing with it, explaining it, or turning it into a problem.Inside the closed shed, a thought or feeling can feel loud, close and urgent. It can seem as if it fills the whole space. Then the door opens. Light comes in. You step into a wider field with sky, air and room in every direction. The same thought may still be there, but now there is space around it. It is no longer the whole truth. It is something passing through.This meditation is for anyone who feels crowded by their own thoughts, emotions, body sensations, worries or stories. It is also a companion practice for the Stillness in the Storms episode on giving space as a form of love.Space does not mean distance from life. Space means just enough room to see clearly.Who this meditation is for:Anyone whose thoughts feel loud or crowdedPeople who want to stop fixing every feeling as soon as it appearsListeners who find Zen helpful when it stays practical and groundedAnyone learning to pause before reactingPeople who need a little more room around worry, pain or emotionWhat it may help with:Creating a gap between awareness and reactionSeeing thoughts and feelings more clearlySoftening the urge to fix everything immediatelyPractising spaciousness through guided imageryReturning to the body with more kindness and less pressureIf this meditation meant something to you, please share it, leave a review, or treat me to a coffee: stevenwebb.uk

The parent. The partner. The friend who always answers the phone. The one who keeps going because other people need them to.This meditation is for that person.In this gentle loving kindness practice, Steven Webb guides you to set down the weight of carrying others, just for a few minutes. Not forever. Not because you no longer care. But because the one who holds everyone else also needs to be held.Using three simple phrases, may I be held, may I be soft, may I rest, this meditation helps you turn kindness back towards yourself before offering it to someone you care for, and then to all those quietly carrying others.This is not about pretending the responsibility has gone. It is about softening your grip around it, giving your body a little room, and remembering that love is wider than the weight.If you are emotionally tired, caring for someone, or simply used to being the strong one, this meditation is for you.

The shoulders that ache. The back that protests. The first stretch that tells us what kind of day we're going to negotiate with.This is a meditation for that moment. It's permissive, soft, and meant to be done lying down, before you get up. We move slowly through the body and ask one simple question of each part: what do you need today? You may not get a clear answer. The practice is the asking, not the answer.Suitable for anyone navigating a changing body, chronic pain, the ordinary aches of getting older, or simply a tired morning. Stay in bed for this one if you can.Companion episode: Waking Up to Body Betrayal: How to Find Peace in the Pain on the Stillness in the Storms podcast.
