Weekly meditation practices offered with an "everyday" attitude. I share new episodes on Fridays: a meditation practice and an accompanying "how to" with some "what and why" context that's useful for first-time and regular listeners alike. Once a month I dig a little deeper into that context. Extended show notes at https://esthermpalmer.com/meditation.

Self Awareness Meditation
Self Awareness Practice - Recast of Episode 196 of Everyday Meditation, a follow up to last week's discussion on meditation and unconscious bias!
As always, I encourage you to make yourself at home in this practice: substitute, modify, do as you need to feel safe and present, including taking breaks!
Integration suggestion
After listening to the episode, perhaps check in: did you notice something that you want to carry with you? If yes, maybe jot it down in a notebook or record a voice memo to help you remember!
You can give this practice a try when you're ready!
Be moving, be true, be you!

A Earnest & Practical Resource
I just started meditating and Ester’s dally podcast is keeping me on track. Every week is a different focus/practice. She explains the practice before jumping into it. A good starting point for this beginner. Her voice is also very easy on the ears.
