Women's Meditation Network

A foundational concept of mindfulness is recognizing that you...your true self, your soul...are separate from your thoughts.  That the things you think about are not you.   That, in fact, you are the observer of your thoughts.   Which is incredibly powerful.   Because knowing that allows you to choose to give energy to the thoughts that serve you well.  Thoughts that bring you joy and help you create a life you love. And also, you can choose to let the negative thoughts pass through you...the thoughts that don’t serve you well, so they don’t take root within you and bring you down.  So the intention of today’s meditation is to guide you through a visualization that will allow you to practice detaching from your thoughts.  So you can connect deeply to yourself without their influence. And, so you can clearly see the power of choosing your thoughts wisely.     *** Want to start off the New Year establishing a regular meditation practice?  Start the 7 Day Meditation Challenge today!  Every day for 7 days, you’ll receive an email from me with a little encouraging note, a powerful guided meditation (10-20 minutes long) and even a little something special once you complete the challenge.

They’ve tried to dictate what’s possible for you. That your life should look like this.  Or that you’re too old, young, fat, thin, poor or loud for that.  Maybe you’ve even let these walls become the ones you reside in.  Perhaps you’ve even told yourself that certain things are off limits to you, are even impossible for you. But my dear...your life is full of endless possibilities! You are the author of your story.  And you have the power to rewrite what is possible for you.  So the intention of today’s meditation is to give you the space to step back from those walls, those inherited expectations, those limiting stories, so you can simply sit in silence...and dream of what is possible for you.   *** Want to start off the New Year establishing a regular meditation practice?  Start the 7 Day Meditation Challenge today!  Every day for 7 days, you’ll receive an email from me with a little encouraging note, a powerful guided meditation (10-20 minutes long) and even a little something special once you complete the challenge.

The intention of today’s guided meditation is to give you the space to sit in appreciation of the present moment.  To help you take a break from the constant striving, achieving and future thinking that can cause both excitement and stress.  And also to help you practice letting go of any thinking about the past that can cause anxiety, judgement or even nostalgia.   Both of these can pull you away from the beauty and appreciation of the present moment.   From all the small and big blessings you have in your life right now.  And honoring them will help you feel more connected to yourself, this season of your life and also give you a deep confidence that you can create whatever future you want.   *** Want to start off the New Year establishing a regular meditation practice?  Start the 7 Day Meditation Challenge today!  Every day for 7 days, you’ll receive an email from me with a little encouraging note, a powerful guided meditation (10-20 minutes long) and even a little something special once you complete the challenge.

The intention of today’s meditation is to give you the opportunity to pause...and reflect on the year behind you.  To acknowledge all the incredible things you’ve done, all the ways you’ve grown and to honor the woman you are in this moment.  So often we are so focused on the next goal or experience that we forget to celebrate all the milestones we have hit, all the blessings of the unplanned events, and honor the richness of the life we’ve lived that has brought us to this moment right now.   This meditation can be used any day of the year so you can marinate in the goodness of the year behind you and use it to enter the year ahead with gratitude, intention and an immense amount of self love.  *** Bonus for You!

What isn’t serving you right now?  Where in your life are you feeling a sense of overwhelm?   Stress?  Discontent? These can be indicators that something isn’t working.  That you are out of flow.   What’s there?  What’s no longer serving you and your highest good? Perhaps it’s a responsibility or job you’re committed to. Or a habit deeply ingrained in your routine. Or a relationship that is no longer fulfilling. Or even an attitude or mindset that is limiting. No matter what it is, the intention of today’s meditation is to help you identify those things that are no longer serving you, those habits, attitudes, responsibilities, relationships or ways of being that are keeping you from living your best life, so you can let them go and shine. Please know that you may already know, or identify during this meditation, something that you need to let go of.  But circumstances may make the reality of saying goodbye a process that takes time. That’s okay. Today’s practice will simply help your mind, body and soul shift into letting them go as you take the practical steps to do so in your life.   *** Bonus for You!

Gratitude.   It’s more than counting your blessings.  More than a tool to shift your mood from dark to light.  More than a way to help anchor yourself into the beauty of the present moment.  It is the doorway for living a life you truly love.  A life that is designed by you...for you...so you may live vibrantly in joy..in bliss...in harmony. When we regularly practice gratitude, we attract more of what we are grateful for and invite abundance into our lives in ways we cannot possibly imagine.  And as that abundance comes into our lives...there is more and more to be grateful for.   It’s a beautiful, expanding cycle.   Gratitude.  Abundance. Gratitude.  Abundance.   So the intention of today’s meditation is to walk through the doorway of gratitude into the divine life of joy awaiting you. *** Bonus for You!

The definition of GLOW is to “give out steady light.”  And it’s your natural state.   But sometimes, you can wake up feeling off, or stressed or just heavy with the responsibilities of life. And it can cover your light. But you are meant to shine!   You are meant to glow! So the intention of today’s meditation is to give you a morning meditation practice that you can use daily that will help you start your day by getting in touch with your natural glow.   *** Bonus for You!

Oh the ease with which we can forgive others in our lives… “It’s okay, girl,” we say, “don’t worry about it,” “move on.” And we genuinely mean it.  We hope our words release them from their self-inflicted pain of regrets, mistakes or disappointments.  But what about you, my love?  You deserve to forgive yourself too.   Forgive yourself for regrets you may have. Forgive yourself for mistakes you’ve made.  Forgive yourself for disappointments you are experiencing. Forgive yourself for every single time you haven’t lived up to your own - or others’ - expectations. Forgive yourself for not being perfect. So the intention of today’s meditation is to give you the inner peace and soul-nourishing love that comes from truly forgiving yourself.   *** If you’re looking to begin or jumpstart your regular meditation practice, you can now get your FREE GUIDE 5 Simple Steps to Start Your Regular Meditation Practice at https://womensmeditationnetwork.com/start.     SPONSOR INFO: Thanks to NED for sponsoring today’s guided meditation...I really appreciate you checking them out.

They’re causing you pain. Discomfort. Discontent. Even anger.  Your expectations.   Or rather...the difference between what you expect, and what actually is.  And while, on the surface, having expectations of others are good, there is ultimately more freedom and more peace found when we let go of these expectations, and instead, show up with presence to what actually is and who they actually are. So the intention of today’s meditation is to help you let go of your expectations of others, so you can transcend the pain that attachment to them brings, and so you can find peace and love in the realness of what is. *** If you’re looking to begin or jumpstart your regular meditation practice, you can now get your FREE GUIDE 5 Simple Steps to Start Your Regular Meditation Practice at https://womensmeditationnetwork.com/start.

They say it takes takes a village.  To raise a family.  To be connected.   To discover ourselves.  To accomplish things that are important to us.   You are not walking through this life alone. You have had - and currently have - a village of women who have shown you love throughout your life. Who have supported you.  Guided you. Mentored you. Inspired you. Challenged you. Changed you.  So the intention of today’s meditation is to call upon the spirits of the incredible women in your life, so that you may honor them and express gratitude for them...and the YOU they’ve helped you become.  ***   If you’re new to meditation or you’re simply wanting to jumpstart your regular practice again, you can now get the 5 Simple Steps to Start a Regular Meditation Practice, totally free at http://WomensMeditationNetwork.com.

You are a goddess! A gorgeous, divine being. Full of love and light.  And yet sometimes you forget.  You get so caught up in the everyday-ness of life that you detach from the goddess within you and weigh yourself down by the details of being human.  But your goddess is here.  Living inside of you. In harmony with your human-ness.   So the intention of today’s meditation is to connect deeply with the goddess inside of you, to invoke her and infuse yourself with her strength, wisdom and love.   ***   Today’s meditation is sponsored by NATIVE and I’m so grateful to you for checking them out.   At least weekly, a conversation happens in one of my mommy groups asking for safe and effective deodorant recommendations.  Native is always one of the most common responses from others.  And with over 8,000 5 star reviews, it’s obvious that Native’s deodorant, bar soap, toothpaste and body wash are the best in class.  Right now, Native is offering 20% off your first purchase when you visit http://NativeDeodorant.com and use promo code WMN when you check out.

When you take the time to think about how many details are required to work perfectly in order for your body to function - for your lungs to allow you to breathe, for your muscles allowing you to move, for your digestive system allowing you to eat food - you realize that your body is truly a miracle. If you’ve ever had pain, or an injury or even been sick...you’ve been reminded of how important it is to listen to your body and take care of her.  Your body is so wise.  And observing her can give you access to information you need to live your best life. So the intention of today’s meditation is to give you the space to tune into her...to truly listen to what your body is telling you.   *** Today’s meditation is brought to you by LOLA and I’m so grateful to you for checking them out.  LOLA is a female-founded company offering a line of organic cotton tampons, pads, and liners.  And now, they offer sex products too.

There is so much good in your life right now.  And yet it’s so easy to be blind to it.  To let the stressful moments, the discontent, or the things you’re wanting to change overshadow all the good.  So the intention of today’s meditation is to give you a simple way to identify and honor all the amazing blessings you have in your life right now.  And allowing all those things you may be unhappy with to dissolve into the background, proactively shifting your attention from the negative to the positive.  This meditation can be a great way to start your day or a useful tool if you’re feeling bogged down by negativity throughout the day.  *** Today’s meditation is brought to you by LOLA and I’m so grateful to you for checking them out.  LOLA is a female-founded company offering a line of organic cotton tampons, pads, and liners.  And now, they offer sex products too.

The intention of today’s meditation is to help you be truly alive in this present moment.   To appreciate exactly where you are and exactly what you have in your life...right now, just as it is.  Just as you are.   It’s so easy to get caught up in the future.   In your goals, your desires and your visions of life that will happen when you achieve this or when you have that.   And while achieving and showing up everyday in pursuit of goals is fulfilling and makes life exciting, we can often times get too caught up in them, allowing us to uproot ourselves from the beauty of the present moment.   In the practice of mindfulness, we call this non-striving...the practice of sitting with things they way they are now.  So today’s meditation will help you root yourself in this moment, appreciating your life for the amazing gift it is now.   *** LOLA is a female-founded company offering a line of organic cotton tampons, pads, and liners.  And now, they offer sex products, too.
