Do you ever feel anxious or overwhelmed?  Perhaps you experience thought after thought or when you get home from work, your body and brain are buzzing from over stimulation.

If you experience any of this, know that you are not alone.  Anxiety and stress are inevitably a part of life as external stressors are always fluctuating.  The problem arises when anxiety and overwhelm become a daily occurrence or transition into a new baseline state for the body.  This is when the body begins to enter a state called ‘fight or flight’, which means that the nervous system is on high alert for danger.  This becomes unhealthy, draining and exhausting for our body, mind and soul.

There are many things that you can do in your daily life that can help to bring your mind and body back to an optimal and peaceful state.  This meditation will help you get there and will offer you useful and practical self-awareness tools that you can integrate into your everyday life.  Integration is key.  This meditation was created to calm the nervous system, quiet the mind, scan the body and to connect to one of the most potent healing systems that lay within; the breath.  Let’s work with our bodies to access the relaxed and optimal state of being that always lies within.  It is there, beyond the layers of thoughts, tension, anxiety and stress.  You are capable of more than you can ever imagine.  Feeling calm and safe within your body is where you should be living the majority of the time and this meditation is intended to help get you there.

We encourage you to listen to this meditation once a day as well as to truly integrate these techniques and insight into your everyday life. 

We would love to know what positive effects this meditation has brought into your life!  Are there other things that you find helpful for alleviating anxiety and stress within your life?  Share in the comments below and together, lets create a ripple of inspiration, helpful information and uplifting energy!
