There are so many guided meditations out there (I have hundreds of my own out there on YT and Insight Timer) but when you’re just beginning the process, simply listen.
Sit outside in a comfy place and really focus on your ears and listening.
notice all the layers of sounds around you.
Then you can start noticing what you are seeing, even with eyes closed.
Then smell, taste, and simply feel.
And BREATHE. feel your lungs breathing and watch your breath the same way you watch waves. witness your own nature the same way you witness any other thing in nature.
Open all the senses to your unique perception of the world at this moment, which will always be unique and noteworthy.
There will be much noise in your mind saying lots of stuff maybe like “this is pointless” and the such, but each time you hear a judgey thought, flip it to curiosity-
“could there be a point to sitting here and opening all my senses”
There is a GREAT power in experiencing the world and your life as it is.
We aren’t meant to change everything or fix every problem with “love and light” through meditation.
We are just meant to remember, acknowledge, and accept that deep sense of awe and love that is beneath everything.
Beneath allllll the noise. that’s all there is.
We are meant to simply experience the wonder of whatever this wild wacky wonderful world is. it has been created in a marvelous way and we can join in the dance however we can 🪩
