Hi there, it's Rohan. For Mental Health Awareness Month, we're partnering with a few other

shows to bring you some resources that might support your own mental health journey.

This week, I want to share a little bit about a slight change of plans. It's a wonderful

podcast hosted by one of our previous meditative story guests, Dr. Maya Shankar. On a slight change

of plans, Maya blends compassionate storytelling with the science of human behaviour to explore

who we are and who we become in the face of big changes. Much like on meditative story,

you're here incredible life-changing stories and timeless wisdom that can help you live a better

life. A slight change of plans is one of my favourite podcasts and I really think you'll love

it as well, so give it a listen wherever you get your podcasts. Okay, here we are. We wanted to

take the opportunity to do something a bit different. Something that we hope gives you a

brief resting place to restore and reconnect yourself. In short, we don't have a storyteller for you

in this episode of Meditative Story. You just got me, I'm afraid. I'm Rohan and you're a regular host.

Our team spans New York, California and me here in Glasgow, Scotland and we're all of course

working from home. The team asks me if I'd guide a meditation based on this particular moment,

so that's what I'm going to do. And let's start by settling in.

I'm guessing you're at home like me, so do sit down if you're not already. Or lie down,

that's fine too. And with eyes open, just look around. This is your universe.

You might be feeling constrained, trapped even. You probably miss the company of others.

Many of us are working from home, trying to find a way to parent work, be there for others.

So many of us are just trying to figure out how to muddle through in this time of great uncertainty.

It's a time where we just don't know what we don't know. That's okay.

You might also be feeling grateful for what you have here. You might be in a safe place.
