7: Guided Meditation: Breath Awareness to Relaxation
Suitable for both beginner and advanced meditations. This is a longer version of the meditation I guide you through before every reiki session. In this guided meditation, you’ll be led through breathing exercises to induce relaxation while you’re directed to bring your focus and attention to your breath. This meditation is perfect for you if you’re new to meditating and aren’t sure where to begin or what you’re supposed to do, or if you’re an experienced meditator and want to be led through an exercise. The narration guide and infused reiki in this meditation will help you clear your mind from distractions, anxious or racing thoughts while you ground, anchor, and relax into your body, the present moment, and the sensations of your breath. This meditation was written, voiced, and produced by Alyssa McDowell. ©Alyssa McDowell, LLC Learn more about this podcast at⁠ www.oftheether.com⁠.
