This guided meditation combines loving-kindness practice with a body scan to invite you to reconnect with your body through gentleness, gratitude, and compassion. With slow awareness and supportive phrases, you’ll be guided to release judgment, honor your body’s experiences, and cultivate a kinder inner relationship with yourself.

Inspired by the season of Advent, this guided meditation invites us to cultivate peacefulness in our bodies, hearts, and relationships. It’s appropriate at any time of year and for anyone who is striving for more peace in their lives and in the world. If you are not Christian, feel free to substitute other language for “God.”
