Stillness Meditation: Finding Calm Through the Breath

In this stillness meditation, I guide you into a simple practice of resting with the breath and discovering the quiet stillness that holds it.We begin by arriving gently, allowing the body to settle and the breath to fall naturally into the belly. From here, awareness deepens, not through effort, but through simple noticing.As you stay with the breath, you are invited to become aware of the stillness that surrounds it, the quiet space within each inhale and exhale. In time, this stillness begins to reveal itself not just within the breath, but at the heart of all experience.This practice is not about achieving anything, but about recognising what is already here. A stillness that is steady, present and always available.This meditation offers a moment of calm, whether you are pausing during the day or winding down before sleep, helping you rest in stillness, awareness and quiet presence.This stillness meditation supports calm, presence and deeper awareness.Chapters:00:00 – Introduction00:18 – Becoming familiar with stillness01:03 – The bell01:18 – Arriving with gentleness01:25 – Ritual gesture01:58 – Breath into the belly02:23 – Resting awareness in the breath04:18 – With the breath and the moment05:03 – Simply noticing05:48 – Stillness holding the breath06:18 – Stillness at the heart of all things08:03 – Stillness within the breath cycle08:48 – Resting in peace and stillness09:53 – Returning to the room10:19 – Closing bell Hosted on Acast.
