Through life there may be times when we feel a deep conscious contentment. It is a time when we are in harmony with our deeper self. 
It brings us to an understanding of what true freedom is. If we surrender and let go, we are releasing all of those things that tie us down. This is what is really meant by going with the flow. 
Let the meditation be the river to take you to that place of freedom.

12 Minute Meditation
 
We often hear the phrase "Step back, rise above it, and tend to your own story."
Stepping back really means to revalue who you are, not the shell of your life, but the depth of your life.  This may need a technique or a practice, and one of those practices is meditation.
It's a time when we focus on quietness and stillness, stepping away from the busy mind, relaxing and quietening the emotions.
So, in our meditation it is moving towards what has often been called the pearl of great price.

​(12 minute Guided Meditation)
 
We are in a time of change. The river of life is flowing quite quickly at the moment, but it can unsettle us, make us feel insecure.
One way to manage the stress is to become more flexible, and that means to soften the edges of our feelings, our thoughts, our attitudes, softening our shape.
Notice in yourself when you are judgmental, it is a clue as to your attitude.
Step back and allow the tension to leave the body.
Use this meditation to let go and soften your attitude

Many people come to the point of what we call conscious contentment, a sense of wholeness, peacefulness and quietness behind the senses.
It may only be very short lived, but there is an awareness, an awareness that there is something more. 
So just having a sense of something deeper, we draw very close to the sense of knowing, to a subtle knowing.
There is just the sense of knowing.
Knowing there is more to us.
And that is the whole point of our meditation.

Many of us stand at the foot of the mountain in search of transformation, and as we reach the top, we may experience a peace, not of this world.
But the time comes when we must return to the earth with our feet on the ground. What a great opportunity to bring that experience with us, change our attitude and live in conscious contentment. 
Meditation can assist in taking you to that mountain top. It is within you already.
