☕️ This meditation is a little different than what we usually do. It’s an invitation into comfort, warmth, and slowing down in a way that feels genuinely nourishing.This practice is perfect for moments when you need a soft landing.

You’re encouraged to make this meditation your own. That might look like a warm beverage, cozy clothes, dim lighting, or simply settling into a space that feels safe and easy for you. We begin this practice with gentle movement followed by stillness, but as always, only do what feels comfortable and supportive for you. There is no right way to experience it.

Just meet yourself where you are and let comfort unfold naturally.

With love, Jo

🌤️ This meditation is a gentle practice for moments when your mind feels caught in worry, overthinking, or “what if” scenarios. Instead of trying to fight your thoughts, we shift your attention toward the best possible outcome and allow your body to experience what it feels like when things work out in your favor.

During this practice, you’ll be guided to soften the grip of anxious thinking, reconnect with your breath, and welcome the possibility that things can unfold smoothly and with ease. By focusing on the best case scenario, you begin to retrain your mind to meet uncertainty with calm rather than fear.

This is a supportive meditation you can return to anytime you need reassurance, perspective, and a moment of steady grounding in the present.

With love, Jo

🍃This meditation is a gentle somatic practice where we tune into the body and explore what it truly feels like to be safe being you.

The mind–body connection is incredibly powerful, and when we learn how to listen to the body and turn inward, it offers so much insight, clarity, and wisdom. During this practice, we’ll bring awareness to physical sensations, emotions, and the nervous system, creating space to feel supported and at ease within yourself.

As you move through this meditation, you’ll begin to build a deeper sense of safety in your body and nervous system, allowing you to strengthen your relationship with yourself, create more  self-trust, and show up with more compassion, presence, and self-love in your daily life.

With love, Jo

☁️This practice is one of my recent favorite breathing techniques for calming the nervous system quickly and effectively. The physiological sigh (also known as cyclic sighing) involves two inhales through the nose, followed by a slow extended exhale through the mouth. It’s a simple yet powerful way to bring your body back into a state of regulation. 

This is a great practice if you’re feeling anxious, overstimulated, overwhelmed, or just needing to come back into your body.

💤We could all use a little more self-love. This sleep meditation is a gentle practice designed to infuse loving, compassionate energy into your being as you drift off to sleep. We begin by settling the breath with a calming 4–6 breathing pattern, creating a sense of safety and comfort as the nervous system unwinds.

After fifteen minutes of gentle guidance, the practice transitions into soothing “I am” affirmations, followed by several minutes of calm music to help you drift off to sleep. 

This meditation helps you release the day, soften into compassion, and naturally drift into sleep.

With love, Jo

🪄This is a short, daily meditation created to help you consciously elevate your state of being. Our state of being is the reflection of our thoughts plus emotion, embodied. And when we attune them intentionally, our outer world inevitably begins to match. In just 8 minutes, you’ll choose an energy, a feeling, or a mantra, and allow it to move through your entire body, elevating your state of being. 

Over time, this becomes a powerful way to align your energy with what you want to experience and attract. Simple, intentional, and easy to return to whenever you need it.

🌀This is a full-body chakra healing meditation designed to gently bring your entire energy system back into balance. During this practice, we move slowly through each chakra, honoring its role and offering it presence, care, and intention.

Rather than forcing change, this meditation creates space for alignment to happen naturally. You’ll be guided through each chakra, while still having plenty of open time to feel, reflect, and direct your own healing energy inward.

This practice is an invitation to listen to your body and restore harmony from the inside out.

With love, Jo

💓This meditation is an invitation to open your heart more. More gratitude, more love, and more of what is still finding its way to you. 

So often, gratitude is focused on what we already have, or what has already happened. But during this practice, we expand it forward - toward the people you have yet to meet, the connections that will surprise you, the moments that will soften you, and the life that is still unfolding in all the unexpected ways. 

This practice centers around embodied gratitude, allowing appreciation, hope, and love to extend beyond the present moment and into the future, helping you to reconnect with possibility, trust in timing, and the feeling that something good is always on its way. 

This is the perfect practice for when you want to feel grounded, hopeful and open. For when you want to remember that life is still moving toward you - and there is always more to be grateful for.

With love, Jo

🪼This 10 minute morning affirmation practice is an invitation to shift out of effort, pressure, and unconscious struggle, and into pure, blissful ease. 

So often, we move through our days assuming that things must be hard in order to be meaningful or productive. This meditation offers a different perspective, rooted in openness, trust, and the willingness to let things unfold with more ease.

During this practice, we will move through affirmations that gently rewire the belief that you have to push, force, or grind in order for things to work out. Instead, we create space for flow, support, and smoother outcomes by softening resistance and staying open to how simple things can actually be.

With love, Jo

💭This three-part breath is one of my favorite ways to calm the nervous system in an easy, soft, and practical way, as we create safety, rhythm, and ease through the breath.

This practice was inspired by a question I was recently asked: what would help you feel just 1% better in this moment?

It’s a simple yet profound return to your inner world, your needs, and your ability to offer yourself exactly that. This practice is an invitation into gentle, embodied intention through the breath.

With love, Jo

💆So many of our practices here focus on cultivating specific energy, but this practice is a little different. This is an invitation to sit with yourself, exactly as you are, without guidance, without a specific goal or intention.

Rather than trying to create or shift anything, this space allows you to rest in presence and find comfort within your own inner world.

We begin with a short period of gentle guidance to help you arrive in your body and settle into the moment. From there, you’ll be held by music alone for four minutes (no guidance, no instructions) just open space to let this practice become whatever you need it to be. We then close the practice with soft guidance.

This is a practice of pure presence, inviting you to come exactly as you are.

With love, Jo
