Last Friday I slipped on ice, hit my head on a stone stair, and got a concussion. It affected my thought process quite a lot. I was tired, had splitting headaches, and had trouble comprehending and speaking words. Until yesterday I felt strange, not like myself, like something was off. I am ok, and am now recovering, but with my brain working on healing itself, I have not had much capacity for complex thought or "strenuous mental activity".

This experience led me to think a lot about shoulds. The things I feel I should be doing, the life or career milestones I should have reached by now, the project I should start, or the project I should finish. Shoulds come from our survival needs and fears, our societal and cultural messages, the voices of our well meaning friends and families, and our own self talk.

Our shoulds are often tied closely with our self worth. And so, in today's meditation, we listen to our shoulds with compassion.

My oldest friend died last week. We were born 6 months apart, friends since birth. He was like a brother to me. He was my first companion in meditation and healing work.

He was severely abused as a child. The trauma of his abuse led to severe mental illness. He spent many years of his adult life between housing stability and homelessness, and between mental stability and schizophrenia. He died alone. I am in shock, I am angry, and I am sad.

In today's meditation, we honor and grieve for those we love.

Happy Halloween, Samhain, and Dia de los Mu***os. During this season we traditionally honor our ancestors, and those loved ones who are no longer with us.

In today's meditation we honor our ancestors ... and raise our spirits.

Our self-care practice is an important antidote to the pressures of production and improvement and optimization. However, sometimes even our self-care can feel like a chore or a means to a different end.

In today's meditation, we experience the simple pleasure of our practice. En-joy meditation.

Work hard! Lose weight! Fight aging! We live in a culture of self improvement. Advertising encourages us to strive toward an ideal that is impossible to attain. Whether related to body image, how we earn or create income, or how we fit in to some standard of 'normal' -- we take for granted the idea that products, diet trends, or hard work will somehow improve us. Many of us have internalized the belief that we need to change fundamental aspects of our selves in order to be acceptable to our families, our jobs, or our communities.

Non-judgmental awareness of our selves is the first step toward self clarity. Self clarity is the first step toward knowing what we want and need. And knowing our wants and needs is the first step toward contentment and true inner power. In today's meditation we accept ourselves just as we are.

Oops! We forgot to post this! 🙄 Episode 100 is here!

Over fifteen years of the Meditation Podcast, many listeners have shared their profound life transformations, physical mental and emotional healing, relief from anxiety, and being able to fall asleep. Serving others in this way has been some of the most rewarding and fulfilling work of my life, and I hoped to create something special to celebrate our 100th episode.

So, in today's meditation, I celebrate myself and this community and the Meditation Podcast. This meditation is my own prayer for myself, and I believe it will also serve you. You are welcome to support me, or follow my example. Give yourself whatever you need today.

We all create intentions, goals, resolutions, prayers, wishes, and dreams. But for many of us, these intentions remain unfulfilled. According to the Law of Attraction, this is because we do not release or surrender our intentions. Instead we continue to micro-manage our intentions, using our conscious minds and force of will.

When we are unable or unwilling to release our intentions, we block our own good. This creates a perpetual state of want, instead of a path to fulfilment. Our intentions live in the realm of the unknown. It is impossible to take a known path to the unknown. Known paths lead to known destinations. But how do we find, or even see, an unknown path?

In today's meditation, we use the Law of Attraction to experience our intentions as complete, and we surrender them to God, the Universe, our Highest Self.

As we navigate through the joys and stresses of life, we may sometimes lose our sense of power, of connection, of liviing in our truth. We may latch onto our losses and disappointments, we may become overwhelmed with grief or anxiety, or we may simply need a little reminder of who we truly are.

In today's meditation, we power up the capacity to heal ourselves, to feel clear in our purpose, and to experience simple joy in our daily lives.

Many of us experience difficult feelings such as anxiety, frustration, anger, isolation, empathy, grief, depression, or uncertainty in career and relationships. When unresolved, these feelings build on each other, and we may begin to feel overwhelmed or overloaded by their 'size'.

In today's meditation, we process and release Big Feelings.
