Hello and welcome. We're so grateful you're here. Our meditation will begin shortly after a brief word from our sponsors who make these meditations available for free, for everyone.

Thank you so much for supporting the show. You're going to. Hey, it's Jody. I'll be your guide today. I want to start by acknowledging how challenging it can be to experience a panic attack.

Although I've never had a panic attack myself, I've learned how to best support some of the people I love

the most through them. And so it's my hope that through this meditation,

I'll help guide you back to a state of peace

when things feel overwhelming.

You're not alone.

I'm here with you. And together we will settle these turbulent waters.

Let's begin. You're going to be. Oh, I see the pain you're in right now.

I see the pain you're in right now.

I know the thoughts are a hurricane inside your head.

I know your body is tight and in pain.

I know you're feeling scared and out of control.

Everything is going to be okay.

This moment will pass. This panic attack will pass.

Just listen to my voice. You're not alone. Oh, Close your eyes and bring your attention to your breath.

Letting yourself feel the rise in the fall of your chest.

As your breath moves in and out. Take a moment to consciously slow down your breathing. Just little by little.

Breathe in a little deeper.

And breathe out a little

and breathe out a little longer.

Breathe in and breathe out.
