A Meditation Master Lesson

In this meditation, I introduce a master lesson drawn from the wisdom of St. Teresa of Avila, a great teacher of interior life.We reflect on a common mistake made by beginners: the belief that meditation is about changing ourselves or achieving a particular state. Teresa reminds us instead that while everything else changes, what remains constant is that we are loved, and nothing alters that truth.As we sit, intention helps us arrive gently into presence, a presence that meets us exactly as we are. With trust, tension is allowed to dissolve, and we rest in what Teresa described as calm abiding. The breath, the first gift given to us, becomes our steady companion once more.This daily guided meditation offers a moment of calm, whether you are pausing during the day or winding down before sleep, helping you rest in trust, stillness and quiet love.Chapters 00:00 – Introduction 01:00 – Introducing St. Teresa of Avila 02:00 – A common misconception 03:30 – What remains unchanged 04:00 – Being loved without condition 04:20 – The bell 05:00 – Arriving into trust 05:20 – A loving presence as we are 05:42 – Intention and deep stillness 06:10 – Calm abiding 07:00 – The gift of the breath 07:30 – The beauty of breathing 10:00 – Breathing in and out 11:00 – Resting in the breath 12:00 – Returning gently 12:30 – Closing bell Hosted on Acast.
