11 // Abiding in God's Presence | A Quiet Practice of Stillness and Trust
from Firmly Planted | Restore Peace through Biblical Meditation & Yoga as a Midlife Mom · host Laurie Hugdahl - Christian Yoga Teacher, Holistic Health Coach
So much of life invites us to strive - to fix, manage, and figure things out. But there is also a deeper invitation: to remain, to rest, and to abide in God’s presence. In this quiet Christian meditation, you’ll be guided into stillness through gentle awareness, Scripture, and spacious silence. This practice isn’t about effort or achievement, but about being with God - allowing His presence to hold you just as you are. This episode is ideal for moments of prayer, reflection, or rest, and can be returned to whenever you long for calm, clarity, or a deeper sense of peace. You may listen seated, resting, or lying down, allowing the stillness to meet you where you are. Next steps Follow the podcast so you don’t miss the upcoming guided practices for better sleep, less anxiety, stress relief, and gentle, faith-based movement.
