Our attention is like a beam of energy. When we direct our awareness to any area of the body, it is enlivened by that energy. This very simple chakra meditation uses this principle to enhance and balance the flow of energy in the body.

It's natural for the mind to go inward when we give it the opportunity. As soon as we close our eyes, awareness starts to settle down. This meditation will help you to discover that natural movement of the mind and allow it to take you deep within.

This meditation will help the emotions flow more freely. You can listen to it to it when you feel rough or upset or simply to experience greater ease in life. By allowing the emotions to be fully felt, without resistance and without mental involvement, they are able to resolve and move through, rather than becoming "stuck". (We did this episode in response to an email requesting help with grief.) Please feel free to visit us at www.meditationoasis.com, or visit Mary's Meditation Oasis blog at me...
