How I Meditate as a Deaf/Hard of Hearing Person? The Hear Me Out! [CC] Podcast
-
- Society & Culture
Welcome to The Hear Me Out! [CC] Podcast, an audio show (with transcripts included) where we listen to stories from fascinating individuals in and around the d/Deaf community and from your host, yours truly, Ahmed Khalifa.
Some people might assume that it's impossible for d/Deaf and hard of hearing people to meditate (perhaps more accurately, guided meditation). But as someone who enjoys meditating, I can assure that it's not impossible.
Even though there are obvious challenges when it comes to using guided meditation (such as whether it's possible or not to hear or understand what the audio voice is saying), I have managed to find a system that suits me. And this comes after years of using different apps and techniques, which after a while, ended up being more of a struggle rather than relaxing.
So I would like to use this opportunity to share how I meditate and how it suits me and my own deafness.
