Inner Peace Meditations

For when your mind is full and both hands are already carrying too much. You don't need to empty it. Just find a little more room. About 12 minutes with Steven Webb's calm voice and music underneath. We start at your front door with your hands full of bags and boxes, each one something asking for your attention. Out into a crowded, noisy world that feels a bit like your mind, then onto a path into...

For the storm you can't stop. Instead of fighting it or bracing against it, sit down in the middle and stay steady. About 8 minutes with Steven Webb's calm voice and music underneath. We bring to mind a storm you've known. Someone passing, losing a job, moving house, or the news getting a bit too much. Most of us fight a storm until we're worn out, or brace and wait for it to pass. There's a third...

When the news lands heavy and there's nothing you can do. Breathe in what's hard, breathe out a wish for them to be safe. About 12 minutes with Steven Webb's calm voice and music underneath. We breathe in what's hard and breathe out a wish for people to be safe. It's a gentle form of Tonglen. First we notice where a headline landed in the body, then we breathe a little of that out for you too. The...

Tired of being told how to breathe? This one barely says a word. Nothing to get right, nothing to get wrong. About 10 minutes with Steven Webb's calm voice and music underneath. Mostly quiet. No one tells you where to put your hands. We just sit together and do very little. Your mind will wander off, to the shopping or what's for tea, and that is fine. That is what minds do. We notice we've been a...

Built a wall to keep the world out, and now it feels like a prison? A meditation for boundaries with a gate. About 11 minutes with Steven Webb's calm voice and music underneath. Imagine a wall around you, all the way round, to keep out everything that stings. At first it feels wonderful. Then the strange thing: inside the wall our own strength goes soft, like a leg in plaster. And one day we need...

Waiting to hear back, and the mind keeps playing out how it might go? A meditation for the fear of not knowing what comes next. About 11 minutes with Steven Webb's calm voice and music underneath. The mind hates a gap, so it fills it. One version, then another, then another. Not because it is broken, because it cares. But you can't steady the tide by grabbing hold of it. So we sit on a quiet beach...

Woke up replaying something you said or did? A gentle morning meditation for the voice inside that says it was your fault. About 10 minutes with Steven Webb's calm voice and music underneath. We don't argue with the voice. It thinks it is helping, like a guard who shouts to keep you safe. Terrible manners, but a good heart. So we thank it, find where the blame sits in the body, usually the chest o...

Some mornings the worry gets there before your feet hit the floor. This one gives it company instead of an argument. About 12 minutes with Steven Webb's calm voice. Perfect for the morning. Picture the worry as a child tugging your sleeve. It does not want an answer, it wants the adult in the room to notice. So you turn towards it and ask what it wants you to understand, then listen without correc...

I have never met an angry person who did not care deeply about something. Even if it is only a parking space. About 10 minutes with Steven Webb's calm voice. There is what happens, then a gap, then what you do. Reacting skips the gap. Responding uses it. You go back to a time you snapped and notice there was no gap at all, then run it again with one in there. Three lines to leave with, and you are...

Life fires the first arrow. We fire the next thirty. And unlike life, we never miss. About 10 minutes with Steven Webb's calm voice. You bring up something recent that hurt, find where it sits, and watch how fast it climbs into your head and turns into a story. That is arrow two. By the time you have told four people, the body has lived it four more times. The point is not getting rid of them. It...
