Stilla Meditation

This podcast is full of live meditations. They are recorded in the context of colleagues sitting down to meditate once a week in the office of their IT-company to rest and recharge, gain more clarity and develop understanding and empathy for themselves and others. I hope they can be of similar support for you! I take inspiration from mindfulness, modern psychology and a deep understanding of human nature and how it relates to consciousness. I post more or less every week. Thank you for listening!

    20250218 - Ease and Relaxation

    Number one excuse for skipping meditation. “I don’t have time”. There is so much to do. Schedule is full. And you don’t want to interrupt the flow you’re in. I’ve been there as well! It can feel impossible to “fit more in”. But what if!? Taking the time to slow down will help you deal with the tight schedule; Prioritise better; Bring more calm and focus to your work; Give you the presence to focus on one thing at the time; Shield you from distractions. “You should sit in meditation for 20 minutes a day. Unless you're too busy, then you should sit for an hour.”- Old Zen saying

    20250204 - Submerge In The Moment

    Mindfulness can be an effective way to deal with anxiety and panic attacks. 1. Investigate your thoughts and ask yourself “Is it really true?” Remembering that your thoughts ain’t facts. The thoughts will often be about the future, so ssk yourself “Am I OK right now?” Moving your focus back to the present moment and away from the minds fear based catastrophe scenario. You can take a sober look at the future when you feel more balanced). 2. Breath. Slow deep breaths. It helps regulate the nervous system and it gives you something physical to focus on rather than the mind loops. 3. Use your senses. Listen to sounds, watch colors and reflections of light, smell the air, feel the sense of warmth and cold. Try to do it without naming the experiences. Just experience them “raw”, as they are.

    20250128 - Body Scan With Acceptance

    When was the last time you stared into space for 30 min, doing absolutely nothing? Exactly - Never! Life will not slow to to hand you the perfect moment to to meditate. “When things calm down” is an illusion. You don’t FIND time to meditate; you MAKE time to meditate. It’s a choice - A simple, powerful choice. Enough with the excuses: - “it’s so much right now” - “it’s not the right time” - “I always forget” And the rationalizations: - “I’m too stress” - “I feel fine, I don’t need it” The truth is, you’re here because you’ve set an intention to practice. That intention brought you into this space. Now, it’s time to act on it. Only you can make this real. And you CAN. If not now, when? Sit down, take 20 min. Show up. Make it real. Don’t overthink it—just do it. Hear me roar! I believe in you, and I love you.

    20250121 - Airing Out The Heart Department A tribute to Björn Natthiko Lindeblad

    It's three years ago since Björn Natthiko Lindeblad passed away. He was a Swedish munk in Thailand, a wonderful teacher and a big role model for me. He reminds me of the importance of kindness and how our imperfections are what makes us human. We borrow our life, our body and each other for a short time before we move on. Take care of each other and try to bring out the best in each other. While you are here you can act on your lightest intentions. Try to live a little less with closed fists and a little more with open hands. With a little less control and little more trust. Today’s meditation will be in his spirit 🙏

    20250114 - Body Scan With Acceptance

    In the gap between experience and response lies your freedom. Let me explain. Your reflexes makes you withdraw your hand instantly when you touch something hot. It’s not a conscious choice that you make, your body does it for you. This is a useful and healthy reaction that work to your benefit because it protects you from getting burned. Great! In the same way you have all kinds of similar reactions to other situations. - A friend invites you to something you would rather skip but you automatically say ‘Yes’ - Your partner gives you some constructive feedback and you immediately start defending yourself - A colleague has a different opinion than you and you start arguing about it All of those reactions are ways for you to “pull your hand away” to avoid some difficult emotion. The problem is that these reactions are not necessary in the first place, they cause more problems than they fix and they are not who you are. So what happens here then? They are mechanisms that you built as a child in a time where you didn’t have all the wisdom and resources you have now. You are reacting as if you were six years old again and your mother is criticising you for not making your bed. And these reactions create your life! How many conflicts have you been in with your partner because of these kinds of reactions? Ten? Hundred? Thousand? What if you could go back to all of those moments and change your response to how would have liked to respond? How different would your life be now? Of course, you cannot go back and change, but you CAN build the awareness to catch yourself in all of the future triggers that WILL come. Build the gap between experience and response so that you can consciously decide how you want to live your life. This is the mindfulness-gap that we are building here!

    20250107 - Follow The Breath

    Happy New Year! 🎉 This is such a special time of change and transformation for me, and I wanted to share it with you.
In December, I wrapped up my studies in musical theatre and singing—a big chapter in my life—and now I’m stepping into 2025 with a clear intention: to do what I’m here to do. ✨ Support people and businesses in living in alignment. For me, living in alignment means showing up as your true self—living and acting in a way that feels right in your heart of hearts. It’s about being you. I’m offering 1-on-1 coaching conversations for anyone who feels called to explore this deeper. You can check out more details at https://www.antonp.se/ or just send me a DM if it sparks your interest. Facilitating the meditations here at Neo has been such a meaningful part of my life over these past six and a half years. (Wow—has it really been that long?!) I’m so deeply grateful for this community and the journey we’ve shared together. 💛

    20241210 - Connectedness Visualisation

    I thought I’d share a little about what it has meant for me to learn to meditate. Breaking Negative Patterns Increased awareness helps me identify and change negative thought and behavior patterns, like blaming others for pain that is inside of me. Improved Relationships Before, I often fell victim to my doubtful thoughts in my romantic relationships, causing them to fall apart within a few year. Becoming aware of these thoughts and learning to just observe them has made it possible for me to stay with my partner and choose something else. Appreciating Life Most importantly, it helps me to Be in life instead of standing on the sideline and watch. When I really feel the present moment it strikes me how wonderfully simple existence is.
