Soulful Conversations: How To Tune In + Trust Our Own Intuition

Today, we live in a world that's more connected than ever. We have big data, big tech, and big opportunities that bring us together. We have at our fingertips all the information that we could ever need. Yet, despite all this connection, many of us are more disconnected from ourselves and the world that we live in than we ever have been before. So how do we get back on track and how do we reconnect and focus on what truly matters? Much of the answer lies in connecting with the invisible gift tha...

Guided Meditation For Anxiety

Anxiety happens to the best of us, and it can easily take control of us fast. When we get anxious, we often get faster – whether it is in our breathing, actions or thinking. We tend to get reactive and feel a little tight within – almost like we are suffocating - and if we let anxiety really sink in and take hold that is when we may even have an anxiety-induced panic attack. A great remedy for anxiety is to slow everything down. Slow the breathing, slow the thinking, slow the doing. Slow right d...

Compassionate Breathing Guided Meditation

We are our own worst critics, and almost everybody has something about themselves that they don’t like; something that causes them to feel shame, to feel insecure, or not “good enough.” This guided meditation is an invitation for you to carve out some well-deserved space for yourself, connecting with your breath and experiencing your whole being exactly as you are – no more, no less – and then allowing yourself to just sit and be in the ocean of stillness and self-compassion. If you enjoyed this...

Renew The Self [mind-body-spirit] Guided Meditation

What does it mean to take time out to renew ourselves? Many of us don't prioritise our own self-care; therefore, we never really take time to unplug, reconnect and renew. Life's pressure and busy pace make it easy to get stuck in old habits and repetitive routines. These cycles make it hard to break emotional triggers, and the egos need to rehash past mistakes, regrets and hurts. When faced with uncertainty, fears and challenges, we often cling to our old habits and ways of doing things. However...

Guided Meditation For Self-Care

Join Claire for a meditation journey into setting intentions for your own self-care practice. In order to feel balanced, energised and joyful, we need to love, nurture and nourish our own mind, body and soul. We need to prioritise self-care and ourselves. Even if it is just ten minutes a day. Focusing on our own well being, it makes us feel whole. And when we feel whole, we live with a joyful, energetic body, a loving and compassionate heart, a clear and inspired mind, a curious and ever-expandi...

A Destress Meditation: Pause. Breathe. Check-In With Yourself

We live in a busy culture, where success is often measured by how busy we are, how much we hustle, how many things we can multi-task, how much we work and so forth. Then, add to all this busyness the pings and dings of email, mobile phone and social media. It is no wonder for many of us we are stressed, overwhelmed, tired and distracted. Time has become a resource that many of us don’t have enough of. As we race around our day trying to catch up or keep on top of everything, we tend to breathe f...

Nature Challenge: 10 Minute Mindfulness Activity To Connect With Nature

It's been said that noticing and giving attention to things outside yourself is one of the greatest and purest forms of generosity. Tuning in and becoming one with nature is an example of this. Nature, like us, is alive. When we spend time in nature, all its goodness permeates our mind, body, soul. It positively affects our mood, our health and our own perception of the world around us. The sights, sounds, smells, textures and tastes in the air bring our senses alive, and nature invites us to sl...

Gratitude For The Breath Meditation

There is great healing and power to be found in breathing, gratitude and sitting in stillness. As we rush about our busy lives, we forget to stop and appreciate the gift of the breath and the gift of life itself. This guided meditation will bring you into a place of stillness, enabling you to have a deep respect and appreciation for this moment, for your breathe and for your life. "Breathe. Let go. And remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure." ~Oprah Winf...

Everyday Miracles: Connecting With The Creative Muse Within [Week Nine]

We all hold the power of creativity. We all have the creative muse live within us. The creative muse is our source of inspiration and creativity. The hard part is quietening down the noise of the outside world so that we can connect and honour our own creative muse within. Connecting with your own creative muse will inspire you to step out of fear and live creatively, which does not have to mean pursuing a life that is professionally devoted to the arts or creative endeavours but living a life t...

Everyday Miracles: Chasing Slow, Intentional + Simple[Week Eight]

When you slow down you see and appreciate the beauty that you never saw before. When you live with intention you actively choose what is important to you and drop the rest. When you simplify you create space for meaning and purpose to unfold. By slowing down and choosing to live more intentionally and simply you dispose of negative energy, and instead draw in positive energy. Not only will this shift make you feel light within, you become more able to live your life with ease. Also, by de-clutte...

Guided Meditation To Connect With Your Own Creative Muse

Today we are going to take a journey together to reconnect with our own creative muse within. In all our busyness and getting lost in all our doing it is easy to disconnect from our own inspiration and creativity. Maybe you have the ideas within, but you cannot find the inspiration or motivation to act. Or maybe your mind and life is so cluttered and busy that you cannot process your inspiration and creativity therefore making it hard to bring it into your own reality. Or maybe you are tired, we...

B R E A T H Awareness Meditation

We live in a society that is predominately oxygen starved. Our busy schedules, never-ending pressures and overall fast pace of life causes many of us not to breathe properly. A big percent of the population in the world breathe too shallow and fast. This means that we are not taking in sufficient levels of oxygen, the result of an oxygen starved body is toxic build up which makes it hard to naturally relax and overtime it can lead to disease and long-term stress, anxiety and fatigue.

Everyday Miracles: Become Self-Actualised And Empower Yourself [Week Seven]

What if we don't need to be any more than we are? What if we are enough? The invitation of today's lesson is to encourage you to love, honour and respect yourself. Just as you are. Owning our journey, our lessons and our truth - it frees us. It frees us from the suggestion that we are not enough and that we should contribute more or become something greater.

Guided Meditation For Self-Worth

All too often we question our self-worth and own inner knowing when we choose to measure ourselves with our own past experiences and other people. Dis-empowering ourselves we often measure our future and our own self-worth based on what’s happened to us in the past. We have all at one time or another allowed our headspace to be filled with thoughts such as Am I worthy? Can I trust in my own inner knowing? Am I good enough? And so forth. This negative mindset does not serve you, not only does it ...

Abundance And Manifestation Meditation

If there is one truth that I know for certain that is that the universe is here to support us all. It is here to work for us. And we are all here to co-create with the universe. We all have the power within to fulfil those wishes within. Now, I am by no means saying it is easy. Because often life has other plans for us – however in some roundabout magical way we are always lead back to where we need to be. Yes we may take a detour. Yes things may work out differently along the way. Yes we may ch...
