In this episode of The Awareness Podcast, Jody Agard guides you through a gentle guided meditation for overthinking and a busy mind.

In this episode of The Awareness Podcast, Jody Agard offers a gentle guided meditation rooted in non-dual understanding, inviting you to explore the difference between what changes… and what remains. From the moment we wake up, the mind begins to label experience: “I feel tired.” “I feel anxious.” “I feel good.” Moods shift. Energy rises and falls. Thoughts come and go. And almost instantly, we take it personally. But what if you are not your mood? Through spacious pauses and simple guidance, th...

But what if nothing needs to be achieved? Before the next thought about yourself… Before the story of who you are… There i...

For years, many of us have poured energy into “healing” ourselves — the inner child, the trauma, the thoughts, the beliefs. It feels noble and empowering at first… until it begins to feel endless. Like there’s always another wound to fix or another version of ourselves that isn’t quite enough yet. In this episode, Jody Agard explores the deeper invitation of non-dual healing — as the remembrance of wholeness. You’ll be guided through a deeply spacious meditation that reveals the peace that’s alr...

Together, they explore: Why “backs...

In this gentle healing nondual meditation, Jody Agard invites you to explore what happens when attention fuses with the idea of “me,” and how peace naturally returns when you rest as awareness itself. No fixing. No striving. No self-improvement — only remembering the truth...
