Overthinking and Busy Mind: A Guided Meditation to Rest as I AM
Episode description
In this episode of The Awareness Podcast, Jody Agard guides you through a gentle guided meditation for overthinking and a busy mind.
When life feels full; responsibilities, decisions, constant movement… the mind seems to become more active with planning, remembering, problem-solving, replaying conversations, or thinking about what’s next.
It can feel like the mind never stops.
But what if the thoughts aren’t the problem?
What if something deeper… is already still?
In this meditation, you’re invited to:
- Notice the natural movement of the mind
- Recognize the awareness that is always present
- Rest as the simple sense of “I Am”
- Experience stillness without effort or control
This is the heart of non-dual meditation. It’s not about trying to quiet the mind, but discovering that you are not the mind.
Thoughts can continue.
Life continues.
But something here… does not move.
You are the stillness in which everything appears.
✨ Another way to go deeper…
What if every desire you’ve ever had — for love, for peace, for something you couldn’t quite name — has been pointing to the simple recognition of I AM… that Eternal, ever-present awareness within… the very ground of being itself? Not something to find. Not a future state. Not a higher level… but what’s here now.
In his new four-part series, “Remembering the Self: I AM the I AM,’” Bill Free offers a clear and practical exploration of this awareness — and how to live from it in the midst of everyday life. That recognition is possible. Not someday. Now.
