Best Mindfulness Meditation Compilation for Tranquility and Anxiety Reduction

'Becoming alike a deep still, cool ocean, bathing in the magic of the cool waters; sapphire blues, turquoise, deep greens, deep healing waters of being'.

Time to find a bit of ease, comfort and relaxation.  Space for you, you time! Mindfulness offers a portal into innate resources, an innate pool of creativity and okayness.  Not necessarily apparent when we are overwhelmed or disconnected, or under pressure or in a narrative that does not serve us but there is a certain quality within us that knows the way forward, an alchemy, just how do we become available to that quiet magic, it knows its own flow, it knows how to heal and untangle.  The conscious mind is not so good at that, its good at other things.  Of course, the matrix for this magic is Embodied relational presence.
So, inviting ourselves through the portal into this bigger nourishing space begins with the pause, it’s as simple as that really. Nothing necessarily stops, but we are taking a wider perspective, kind of suspending and hovering in it all. Just becoming available as we settle. Inviting a more sensory quality. Perhaps the body can hear different sounds, near or far background sounds, just tuning in gently, listening without judging, just hearing.  Hearing beyond the room, beyond the four walls, hearing outside sounds.  We are taken into a real of spaciousness, beyond the sounds, beyond the clouds, into the big blue, or even night sky, space extends infinitely. Its as if we are being breathed by it even, as we breathe out sensing up into the stars, the milky ways, beyond the beyond, that holds us together. Inviting a quality of resting here in this spaciousness, it kind of rests in itself, no effort requited, suspended in rest. Suspended in restful spaciousness, clear and open. This visceral earth body can sense the ground, contact, earthing and grounding. Becoming like a mountain, immoveable, strong, yet spacious and open. Resting in this spaciousness. Maybe parts of the body would like to soften…….  Whole-body softening, soothing, comforting with each in and out breath.  
Taking a little time to make space for what is alive in the body……. Inviting a kindness and care to whatever is here. Perhaps breathing in a quality of care and warmth, breathing in a particular perfume or care, or energetic. Breathing in a magic position into every cell, tissue and organ in the body. Becoming alike a deep still, cool ocean, bathing in the magic of the cool waters; sapphire blues, turquoise, deep greens, deep healing waters of being. Continuing to rest in the breathing, flowing in and flowing out. Inviting a magic and sensitive awareness in Presence. Sensing a quality of kindness and care in your heart, like a blooming flower, radiant soft petals, emanating colourful light from the body, radiating kindness and care to all beings around you, wishing happiness and wellbeing, outwards into the world, to your colleagues, your friends, all beings, all creatures and animals.  And further out around the globe, a magical radiance or energetic, or just intention. May all beings be well and happy. Resting in this spacious and ground quality of kindness.  It’s a kind of Magic.

Corporate Mindfulness Meditations for Resilience, Focus, Calm, Wellbeing & Enhanced Performance

This will invite a spaced of deeper rest, a quality of presence, a quality of wholeness, a sense of self-care, and a quality of landing, coming into Grounded Embodied Presence.  And a natural kind of clearing of the mind as a result. Being available from the sensing body, inhabiting the whole of you.  Experiencing a foundation of solidity, stability, balance.  From here safety can emerge, confidence and a quality of centredness, earthing and grounding, always available at all times, resting here.
Inviting in a quality of warm awareness. Perhaps in the breathing, flowing in and flowing out, a warm and kindly awareness, flowing into every cell, healing, enlivening, permeating, vitalising, refreshing, earthing and grounding. Kindly awareness, warm awareness, filling the whole body up with a sense of care.  And perhaps the whole body can begin to emerge as a whole experience, the shape of the body from the skins sense of itself, sensitive to touch, the fabric of the clothing wrapping around the whole body. Temperature, the pulse of the heart, tingling maybe, whole body energising and enlivening allowing it to rest, grounded whole body warm awareness breathing and sensing outwards into the space around it, into the room maybe, and beyond the room outside, above the treetops and above the clouds, into the infinite sky up into that infinity of jewels and diamonds. This universal context that we are always in, always available at all times, we can sense our connection as if being breathed by it, resting in the breathing, resting in the space, resting in the grounding, flowing in and flowing out, resting in the great flow of breathing in a very natural way, not too tight and not too loose, it just looks after itself in a very unique way, grounded spacious breathing.  Thinking can have a place in the majesty of things, probably moving to one side, as the body rests in itself.
And taking a little time to sense what is alive in you in the body, something new, familiar, just give it space to be received, they want to be felt, and in doing so will naturally move into the freshness of the next moment. Generally, always a complexity we can hold, we don’t need the labels, just the experience, coming close or taking space, sensing the stars afar, the feet on the ground can offer a spaciousness and an ease even with intense feelings and we can say Hi hello, its like that its been a tough week or tough moment, of course. You have underlying needs for peace, healing, wholeness, integrity, connection, spaciousness, connection, closeness, intimacy, boundaries, privacy, and more. As we meet these parts, also resting in the whole-body sensing, there’s the part but there’s the whole as well, the integrated sense of self in wholeness. Resting in the natural sensations, resting in the flux of the comings and goings of experience, in the constancy in the flow of breathing and the constancy of the feet on the ground providing stability, balance safety and peace. The peace of the infinity of the glittering diamonds that surround us always offering us their light and beauty, just we too can offer our light and beauty in this quality of Being in Presence. Resting here.

Deep Rest and Calming Mindfulness Meditation

This is a brief exploration of sleep in the context of mindfulness, there are classically many things you can do to set a context for better sleep.  However, when you are laying in bed, and there is a sense of not getting to sleep.  Often anxiety is a major factor in not sleeping coming from actually and paradoxically trying to get to sleep. It does not have to be like that, we can reframe how we get to sleep. We can instead focus on resting and not trying to get to sleep. Setting ourselves up for failure and further anxiety.   Resting all night will allow you to function the next day ok, rather than with anxiety generated through not sleeping by trying to get to sleep!  With resting we can just invite a sense of contact with the mattress, sensing contact with what ever is underneath you and letting the muscles soften. Being available to resting, perhaps working from the feet upwards etc.  The breathing inviting a natural rhythm, which becomes more prolonged and becomes longer on the out breath. And if you like placing your hand on your tummy or chest if anything is agitated in you.   And if it helps you can invite a pleasant scenario, somewhere in nature, or somewhere you can remember that is very very comforting. Maybe hearing the sounds that you herd maybe it was a sunrise or sunset, maybe it was the sound of rain, something inviting comforting, some lazy day or lazy night, some realm, someplace that s safe and comfortable. Allowing the body to rest in each ion and out breath, If the body wants to fall asleep or drop off to sleep in its own time, it will in its own time.

Sleepy Resting Comforting into Sleep Guided Invitation

Its a Kind of Magic Mindfulness Meditation

Inviting a spaciousness, a softening, a place of ease, just being available to whatever is here especially a quality of sensation maybe your body can sense the fabric of clothing on your skin here and there, inviting comfort and safety, a sense of wholeness as the body is invited to sense itself more fully. Especially this time of year, Autumn, when the sky is blue and crisp, the air is clear, often cool, there is a vividity a clarity in the seeing. Vivid colours, beginning to shift, the leaves beginning to change towards, yellows, golds and oranges, there is an aliveness, something more vital.  And you can sense outwards noticing any sounds… if you are lucky, a sound of a bird. And through the sound, an awareness of spaciousness along with this clarity of Autumn, clear, open spacious, up into the blue sky, up into the stars beyond. Resting in this quality of clear spaciousness, being breathed by it, all that clarity flowing in and flowing out, clear vitality into each cell of the body, bringing spaciousness and healing with each in and out breath, Breathing in that blue sky, perfuming the whole body, a quality of clear light.

Autumn Clarity Vitality Vivid Colours Meditation

This is an invitation into a quality of presence, mindfulness, kind awareness, compassionate holding. We always begin with where we are, there is nowhere else to begin and its in the pause and invitation into some self-awareness.  Its very gentle, there is not smash and grab, more like a bud gently opening into the flower.  You might have a favourite flower or remembering a particular flower and recollecting what the bud might be like for that particular flower.  Just being available to this gentle opening, flowering, blossoming even. The flower draws from the earth, the nutrients the richness from the soil, the sun, the ambient temperature eh atmosphere. The flower is an emergent, cocreated process, so too is Presence. We too can draw from the earth sensing contact, touch, pressure.  Just resting here with these sensations, just being available to the sensing of the body and invitation into a heightened aware ess that is natural and easy.  Something in you can sense contact with the chair or earth, contact of the clothing around the body, bringing warmth and safety, soothing and comfort maybe. Resting with these sensations on the skin, warmth, softness, a sense of being held, wrapped around. And your body can sense the space around it, the office, the room, extending out above the tree tops into the sky, spreading infinitely in all directions including that sea of stars, as if being breathed by his infinite space, flowing in and out of the lugs as you sensing air, calming and soothing. Inviting a warm awareness with every breath. A perfumed awareness even, of the blossoming of the flower, permeating every ell of your body perhaps with a beautiful breath permeating scent or colour, or texture, just like a soft petal, touching the whole body. Resting in the invitation into a deeper calming and comforting, a softening.  Also being available to a sea of sounds, keeping us company. Grounded, whole-body, kindly aware breathing. Maybe parts of the body might like to soften, further relaxing, inviting a deeper ease.  The shoulders, the neck muscles, and the jaw dropping down slightly, inviting a deeper rest and ease in the body and also inviting a quality of deeper ease and care and kindness.  As this bud opens, the light of its petals shining through the whole body maybe through the heart area, opening up, warming, healing, calming every cell of the body, every limb. Pausing in the richness of warm and kindly awareness, a colourful, a perfumed awareness maybe, flooding the whole body. Continuing to rest in whole body breathing. Grounded aware, spacious, perfumed breathing.   Perhaps something within is calling for some support, care, healing, or even some celebration for something joyful and open, or maybe both, contracted as well. Connecting that something within, as not who you are but as an element withing passing through. Perfuming it with the flower of kindness, a soft holding, a soft coming alongside, companioning.  Whole-body breathing and keeping company whatever is here.  Continuing to rest in the whole body breathing as perhaps like a bud continues to blossom in its own time, in its own fulness. And we can allow the bud to keep transforming into the flower, into a fuller opening throughout the day or night, The ground always available, as it’s the space and the ability to say hello to anything that arises and keep it company in compassion, the ability to rest with it all. As it is. Always available at all times.

Flower Power Mindfulness Meditition

Precious time set aside for you... Perhaps something from home or work is with you. We're marking a space, a boundary, maybe even something sacred, being available to the universe, both inner and outer. In today's world, preoccupied with shopping and the internet, this space is an opportunity for something more real. It's an invitation to the clear light of reality, offering healing, growth, wellbeing, and creativity—all here in the relational field of being.

We pause, being available to the soothing ocean of being. Perhaps you sense the earth beneath your feet or body—through the chair, settee, or ground. This point of contact is always available, grounding you in balance and solidity, whether walking, sitting, or lying. Coming home to a foundation of balance, terra firma, and briefly resting with these sensations. From here, sense more broadly—the relational field of the body, the sensations offered: touch, taste, pleasure, pain, neutrality, pulsing, and breathing.

This relational field extends beyond—into the space around you, above the treetops, through clouds into the clear open skies, and beyond, into the star-studded infinity we sit in. Grounded yet spacious and open, as if being breathed by the stars themselves. Perhaps breathing into those parts of you that need extra care, permeating every cell, cleansing, healing, vitalizing, connecting with each in-and-out breath. The starlight floods through the body, inviting kindness, gentleness, comfort, and peace.

If there's anything less than peaceful, that's okay too. We welcome these parts, supported by the whole relational field of being. The connection with others and all life sits with us, offering safety, power, and care. As we rest in the whole-body breathing—grounded, kindly, starlight breathing, flowing in and out. Resting. If there are thoughts, that's okay—giving them the space they need, while also inviting the body to sense the earth, sensing its whole self in the infinite space it inhabits. There's plenty of room for everything here, even thoughts—just letting them be, letting them find their place. Returning to the visceral sense of beingness in the relational field, which supports itself in its own balance and wellbeing.

Perhaps you notice a warm awareness in the body, a slight glow, an ember, or a spark—like a bud opening in the chest. Soft, warm petals of kindness emanate outward, or perhaps a sun rising in the chest, flooding warmth and care through your body. This light extends beyond you, touching the hearts of those near you, wishing them well. Quietly, this light radiates out, further into the world, wishing harmony and peace to all beings—plants, animals, and humans alike. Beyond the planet, into the great sea of diamonds, who knows what's out there? May all life find peace and happiness in its own way.

We sit here in this relational field of peace and care. Each cell in your body holds within it a thousand suns, radiating outwards. Letting everything be as it wants to be, from this grounded, warm sense of self—or whatever sense of self feels true. Honoring its truth, inviting a deepening sense of joy, peace, freedom, naturalness, playfulness, and abundance. And we rest here.
