Guided Meditation: Feeling breathing and resting in being

This episode of the Mindfulness Meditation Podcast with Danny Ford comes from our archive of guided meditations. Settling into a comfortable posture and asking yourself: How do I know I have a body? This open question is a way of mindfully enquiring into your experience. Knowing your body from the inside, moment to moment. Softening tension. Tuning to the breath, wherever it is most clearly known in your body. Recorded in 2012 at a mindfulness meditation class in Leeds.

Guided Meditation: Caring for your experience

In this guided equanimity meditation, I invite you to explore the heart quality of equanimity. Equanimity is a quality that develops and strengthens as mindfulness deepens. It’s not indifference or detachment. Rather than becoming closed down, equanimity is a sense of balance, a sense of home in your own being, from which you can respond with creativity and presence. I think it’s especially helpful in the midst of feeling difficult emotions, like resentment, anger, or jealousy. The balance of equanimity isn’t about not feeling particular emotions, like anger. It is but a balance that allows you some space with the difficult feeling and gives you an enhanced capacity for responding with creativity and skill. This guided meditation was recorded at a meditation class in Leeds.
