Settle In, Open Out: A Guided Meditation for Presence and Peace

In this short guided meditation, I’ll help you settle into a sense of ease and openness—calm and spacious, yet deeply present. Over time, this natural resting state becomes more familiar and accessible, even in the middle of a busy or challenging day. I invite you to slow down, come home to yourself, and let well-being grow from the inside out.You’re welcome to join me live each week for these meditations — free for everyone — by signing up at https://rickhanson.com/wednesday-meditations-with-dr-rick-hanson/.
