Day 431 of 730 – Final Daily Live (for Now)
Carlos Veloso-Strange

Hello, my friends. Welcome to Day 431 of this 730-day journey.

From the beginning, my intention was to commit to 730 days—but today, I want to share that I’m taking a break from doing daily live sessions. I’ll still be practicing daily, but the structure will shift.

This decision has been in the works for a while. A big part of me wants to keep showing up live every day—but life has changed, and I need to honor that.

So I’m not saying goodbye to live sessions entirely. I’m simply stepping back from doing them daily. I’m returning to the original spirit of this journey: spontaneity, joy, and presence. Lately, I’ve felt some of the lives were more about fulfilling the number than about truly being present. And that’s not what this is about.

So, this will be the last daily live for now. I know some of you may feel disappointed, and I honor that. But I want to encourage you to keep going. I’m still committed to the 730 days—I’m just changing how I engage with it.

From now on, I’ll go live when it feels right—when the energy, focus, and spontaneity are truly there.

Now let’s do what we always do: meditate together.

Today’s meditation will focus on Om Mani Padme Hum—a powerful mantra for calming the mind and heart. We’re sitting here in front of the Om Tree. Let's take a deep breath… and a long exhale… and smile.

Start to repeat the mantra softly:
Om Mani Padme Hum
(Repeat with gentle breath and rhythm.)

Take a moment to pause.
Notice your breath, your presence, your smile.
Feel the gratitude for being here.
And again, repeat in your own pace, your own voice.

Om Mani Padme Hum

Thank you, my friends. This journey has meant so much. To those listening live and to those catching up later—thank you.

And to the many who’ve shared with me—Linda, Martin, Blaise, Margaret, BD, Lena, and so many others—your reflections have touched me deeply.

Linda wrote:

“So much gratitude to you, Carlos, and this group of friends. I’ve learned so much, and built a discipline I never thought possible. Not goodbye—but until we meet again.”
This shift will give me space to focus on new things: perhaps my first course based on everything we’ve practiced. Maybe even a retreat—accessible and open to all, regardless of location or finances. Let’s see what unfolds.

I’m stepping away from daily lives—but I’m not stepping away from you. This is a transition, not an end.

You’ll still find me meditating, practicing, and occasionally going live—here or on other platforms like Instagram. Most of all, I’ll keep showing up authentically, and I’ll always carry this community in my heart.

Much love, many blessings.
Thank you for walking this path with me.
I’ll see you soon—just in a new way.
Om Mani Padme Hum

CHANGE Day 431 of 730 - The Final Daily Live for Now

**Day 432 of 730 – 24-Minute Session**
**Carlos de Bennic**

Hello, my dear friends. Welcome to Day 432 of 730—now in a new format.

I’ve returned to where this all began: sitting alone in my living room, with Ram Dass and the Buddha in front of me. I sit with the quiet presence of you all in mind, knowing many of you are listening later.

Today’s session will be 24 minutes long, with a singing bowl sounding every four minutes. It may ring in the middle of a sentence or a silence—and that’s part of the beauty. I’ve come back to honoring the small background sounds too: family, dogs, cars, life. This is how it started, and this is how it continues.

What feels most important right now is staying true to myself—and I’m grateful for your support and the kind messages you’ve sent. This journey is still about completing the 730 days, just in a more authentic, grounded way.

---

So let's begin.

Gently bring a smile to your face. Lean into this very moment. Start breathing softly into your chest, your heart, your vulnerability, and your strength.

Let your hands rest on your knees. Let your shoulders carry your arms. Breathe deeply, and let each breath straighten your spine—strong and proud—while your chest remains open and soft.

With every out-breath, release a bit of tension.

Now take a moment to observe yourself. Imagine looking at yourself from the outside. See the beautiful human being that you are—cross-legged, seated in a chair, or lying down. Look at yourself with kind and loving eyes. And smile.

Even if the gong startles you, let it serve as a reminder to return to presence. If your mind wanders, that’s okay. Come back to the breath, to the stillness, to your body.

Notice your energy. Notice your emotions. Let your body move gently if it wants to—perhaps a light massage of your legs or a small stretch to reconnect.

Now, place your left hand on your solar plexus and your right hand over it. Ask yourself:

**What am I grateful for today?**

Despite any challenges or uncertainty—what are you truly grateful for?
It could be a person. A moment. An emotion. Or simply this connection, this breath, this presence.

Breathe into that feeling.

You might feel the presence of someone dear. You might feel proud. Or maybe you’re just grateful for this exact moment, sitting here with me—as I sit here with you.

Now, gently start to sway your body from side to side, like being rocked as a child. This is your body remembering that everything is okay. You are safe.

Take a few deeper breaths, and begin to prepare for the final five minutes of our session.

---

Before we end, ask yourself:

**What is my intention for tomorrow?**
What would you love to experience? More of what you felt today? Something new?

Visualize it—perhaps laughter, a hug, a conversation, or helping a stranger. Let that intention take root.

We’re almost at the end. The final bell will sound in just under four minutes.

Thank you for continuing this journey with me. Changing the format has been the right decision—for my truth, my energy, and my life. And knowing that you are still here with me means everything.

I feel grateful for the discipline I’ve built—the inner rhythm that leads me to sit, breathe, and be present. I wouldn’t want to miss this.

So let’s sit together in silence for the last two minutes—in gratitude and appreciation for each other, for this moment, and for the path ahead.

Thank you, my friends, for joining me on Day 432.
May you have a beautiful day or a restful night—whenever you're listening.

And I’ll see you again tomorrow.
Much love. Thank you.

Daily Meditation 433 of 730 – “Love is Everywhere”
By Carlos de Bennic

Good morning, my friends, and welcome to this morning meditation—Day 433 of 730.

It truly feels like the right decision to shift into this new format. I’m back to a more natural rhythm, and I’ve already noticed a shift in energy. Vivid dreams, clearer thoughts—this change is nourishing.

Right now, I’m joined by my two dogs, Lou and Rumle, and our cat Felix has arrived too. My wife is up, and you might hear some background sounds. That’s part of this new space: raw, unfiltered presence. It’s good to be with you again.

Let’s do a short and sweet morning sit—just like any other, but also completely new.

---

We begin by noticing sounds, allowing them to be part of the experience. Gently open your mouth wide… then softly close it, leaving space between your lips and teeth. Unclench your jaw.

Take a deep breath… and invite in a deep smile—a smile of gratitude. You woke up today. You’ve been given this gift of life again. That alone is worthy of thanks.

Yes, life can be a mix of emotions, but we can meet that with openness. Today, we get to choose how we respond. We get to set an intention.

Yesterday, I invited you to visualize something—an action, a word, a hug. Today, I want to share a sentence inspired by something I read:

“Love is everywhere.”

This is our intention today. Breathe it in. Let it settle in your chest, in your heart, in your whole being.

Love is in your breath.
Love is in your cells.
Love is in your actions, your thoughts, your energy.
“Love is everywhere.”

Truly take that in—not as a vague idea, but as something alive, something real.

---

The universe responds to our thoughts and feelings. What we think, what we believe, tends to echo back to us. So when we hold the belief that love is everywhere, we begin to notice it in everything.

Even in difficulty, even in challenge - Love can still be found. Let this sentence live in you:

“Love is everywhere.”

Whisper it silently in your heart.
Repeat it gently in your mind.
Feel it in your body.

Throughout the day, when you drink water, touch something, speak to someone—remember this mantra. Let your actions flow from it. Observe what shifts when you live from this space.

Let’s take a short moment of silence now - breathing love in, breathing love out.

---

Now, slowly begin to move your body - moving from side to side - preparing to end the session.

Let this sentence stay with you as your anchor:
“Be love. See love. Bring love.”

Let it flow into your interactions, into your presence, into all that you do today.

Thank you, my friends, for being here with me this morning.
I’ll see you again soon.

Before we close, let’s sound the gong.

Namaste

Much love.
Bye-bye, my friends.
