Summary

Enjoy this meditation anytime you feel pressured, like you are struggling with something, or simply want to be "more in the moment".

Once you've meditated with this enough times, you'll find you can do it on your own anytime you need to. Just come back to this episode for a "tune-up" if it isn't easy anymore.
