    04.17.26 - Meditation - Connection with the Heart

    Hello and good morning, friends. We’ve come to perhaps one of the tenderest points in revisiting this series on connection: the heart. The ways we relate to our hearts are really going to inform the next couple of meditations also, so I encourage you to be gentle and take some time. I’d like to share a little from the original post: We’ve explored the breath and body as well as the mind. How do we feel the connection of these two and now to also feel their connection with the heart? In this trio, I think the heart can often feel the most guarded, even from its closest allies. It can also be the most tender, especially in times such as these where every news story is a different heartbreak. Even when something is anger-inducing, sometimes what lives beneath the anger is our tender little hearts, maybe wishing for something to be other than it is or recognizing the suffering of a situation. Today is an invitation to be the with the heart and its many connections, to feel into the tenderness that lives in us always. I would like to leave you with one of my very favorite quotes from my late teacher: “It’s so important that we’re paying attention to the condition of our heart... It’s the beginning of your life in every single moment.” — Michael Stone Thank you for being here today, friends, and for exploring these connections. 💗 Take care. ✨ Times are available this weekend and beyond to explore more connection in just the way you need. https://makespacemeditation.as.me/ This is a public episode.

  2. 04.03.26 - Friday Meditation - Being Still

    04.03.26 - Friday Meditation - Being Still

    Hello, friends. How are you? We’ve been talking a lot about quiet in the daily meditations, so tonight I thought we could spend a little time with stillness. Here’s a little something from the original sharing of this meditation: Sometimes when things are shifting either in small or big ways, getting still is the last thing that I want to do. Maybe you too? But when I don’t want to find that stillness is when I know that I need it. That’s not to say we shouldn’t move things through our bodies with actual movement, but that there is a balance we can find between stillness and wanting to run from things. Stillness can help us see what’s truly going on, to act from a place of choice instead of reactivity. It can be informative. It can soothe some frayed edge feelings. Of course, if none of this feels like it resonates, today’s meditation is still a lovely exercise in just being right here. Thank you so much for being here. 💗 Take care. (This meditation is from the archive. It was originally shared on 05.30.25.) ✨ I love to be with you in these meditations. If you’re looking for other ways we can be together and perhaps find some stillness as well, I invite you to find a session that calls to you, either online or in person. https://makespacemeditation.as.me/ This is a public episode.
