    Welcome to this guided meditation which is designed to train your mind for calm detachment from any unwanted patterns of over-thinking.
    By practicing these mindful techniques of conscious observation and self acceptance, you will find you are more able to quieten and relax an overly active mind -- and also naturally increase your body's healthy energy, to become a more self assured person in the present moment.
    This meditation experience may be repeated as often as you choose to reinforce your positive intentions.
    By your own inner direction may you continue to find your greatest waking potential.
    This session is suitable and recommended for repeated listening, and regular listening will help compound positive suggestions and / or your own positive results.
    The end of this session will provide options for either drifting into a sound night's sleep, or for returning to your fully conscious, awake and alert, positive mind state.
    Do not listen to this recording whilst driving or operating machinery.
    This recording is in no way a replacement for any prescribed medication; nor is it intended to contraindicate or supersede any medically diagnosed conditions. Please always consult your health care professional for your best advice in all medical issues.
    All hypnosis is self hypnosis. The power for positive change resides within your own mind. If you choose to accept the suggestions presented in this session, you can rest comfortably knowing that you are the one safely in control of your own positive experience.
    This channel uses positive voice suggestions, often accompanied with calm images, background sounds and meditation music, to allow you your very best state of relaxation, inner change, to remove negative blocks, and to create self guided healing therapy; with techniques from the fields of hypnotherapy, modern psychotherapy, trance work, guided relaxation, NLP, cognitive behavioural psychology, mindfulness meditation, and ASMR.
    Peace & Enjoy

It's all made up stories your mind is creating and you engaging with the mind. Recognising when it's happening is key. Then you can come back to the present and realise where you are and that its ok.

    This video has become a regular part of my life since I discovered it last year. I went through a phase where I listened to it every single night for months straight. I have severe OCD and obsessive thoughts and whenever I have an outburst of bad thoughts I immediately come to this meditation and it brings my mind to peace. Peace I haven’t felt in years no matter how much therapy I’ve gone through.
    If you have awful obsessive thoughts just know you are not alone. I know the urge that comes with those thoughts. Don’t give in to the urgency. You and your thoughts are separate- observe from afar do not get tangled up inside of them.
    You are NOT alone. Peace to you ❤️

I will keep it up as it helps you and many others I have read about. I'm sorry you have been down or still going through the horrible stuff I have been my whole life and I wish you all the very best. Thanks again. I really liked that Michael read yours and put a heart there..sorry I'm not use to the terminology of you tube words. He saw that you were geniuan as I did with beautiful encouraging words. Bless you

    This has changed my life completely and is hands down my favorite guided meditation. I have struggled with chronic nausea and anxiety, but this guided meditation has changed that completely. I once was so sick I couldn’t even keep down food. I was constantly anxious. Now when I feel sick, I put on this guided meditation and it completely relaxes my stomach and makes the nausea go away. No doctor has been able to figure out why I was so sick, and I think it was all about past traumas and current fear mindset. This meditation got me out of that loop of ruminating thoughts and healed me beyond what most doctors could do. Forever thankful for this!!!!!! I recommend it to everyone. 💜

    This really helps. My anxiety has been terrible recently. I realized today that the source of all my problems was my insecurities. I am in constant fear of physical danger and of rejection, which has taken a lot from my life. However, I'm just starting college now and becoming an adult, so I've decided that now is a great time to change. I've heard many good things about meditation and this exercise brought clarity to my thinking. I'll be coming back here again, I want to make meditating a habit.

    The best suggestion I could give to anyone suffering with depression or addiction or anxiety or any other sense of dis-ease would be to go do something for someone else. No matter how small or how large. Help someone. Love unconditionally and pull yourself out of your head. It's easy to get swept up by our mental and emotional hangups. Just breathe. Trust. Love and know that no matter what the situation is at this moment in our lives that we are all going to be fine. We are limitless.

    In my personal case overanalyzing situations is a survival mechanism because I live in a hostile environment with hostile people, and I feel I need to prepare for the blows they will land on me. Granted, I can never fully anticipate exactly how it's gonna go, but from my experience it's much harder to take the proverbial kick to the stomach if I'm not expecting it. So from time to time I really need these kinds of videos to relax and hopefully regenerate because living like this is extremely mentally and emotionally draining and takes a heavy toll on my physical health. These videos save lives, I'm sure of it.

Its crazy to think that I workout every other day at home on my own no excuses, I have more energy, I find myself being happy and really appreciating life, i love to learn, read, & nature! I am so proud of myself I can’t tell you guys how much change I have made in such little time! I still have my moments and I promise this has not been a walk in the park. I had to rearrange my WHOLE life in order to get here. So guys fight for your happiness search for things that will help you. Also build new good habits and remain consistent even when it gets hard.

    I am not one to write comments often, but here goes...
    I was afraid to do this, to feel the sensations of my body because that is what has been causing me so much mental turmoil, grief, and worry. Accepting the feelings as they come and go. Visualizing my thoughts outside of themselves was very effective for me. It is like watching leaves fall on a stream, then seeing them gently float away downstream, letting them go. I have not felt this encouraged in a long time knowing that I am more than my thoughts. I think I have been damming up a river of life that is supposed to flow freely. This was wonderful experience. I feel better. Thank you.

    Since my daughter fell asleep, I decided to meditate because lately my mind has been all over the place. I laid down on my living room floor, lit some relaxing candles and played the video. I felt so relaxed that I fell asleep however it was the sort of sleep where you can hear things around you and I remember listening to the mediation. I got up and I felt amazing. I looked in the mirror and smiled. I literally feel like the millions of things I had in my mind are gone. I feel so refreshed.

    To the people who struggle with Anxiety for years and years. Your time will come where it all goes away. Be nice to people, take care of yourself (the best you can) and never give up. I struggled with severe anxiety for 6 years, constantly a mess and making it through day by day. I keep my head focused to the best of my abilities, helped others and most importantly never gave up on those really hard days. I am now living with almost no anxiety… I don’t say this to brag friends, just to let you all know it’s possible to feel great again!

    To whoever is reading this. Meditation is an exercise in which through the act of watching your breath it grounds you to this very moment. While in the moment you can watch where your mind goes and then let those thoughts go. With meditation you can realize the tendencies and thought patterns your mind takes you to. These tendencies have been learned and can be unlearned. I wish the best for all of you.

I had a horrible nightmare after listening to it, but it was something that I had buried and didn’t deal with so it forced me to. I think I can find peace now. I’m going to listen to this every night. It’s also helping me sleep better!

I started doubting everything in my life including the things that I hold the dearest to me, music and my boyfriend. It hurt me so much that I was doubting those things. I would have crippling anxiety attacks. I would tell myself that it was just my anxiety playing tricks on me but no amount of self talk worked.

    While meditating, we are often distracted by noises from the external world and thoughts from the internal world. Mindfulness teaches us to listen to the general buzz of the world without being judgmental, mastering also the internal world - seeing thoughts just as clouds passing by, without repressing them. Live the moment, don't stress about past or future events, live the present.
