Happy Monday everyone laugh

Today I like to share with you one of my favorite meditation videos

15 Minute Healing Meditation: You Are Your Own Healer/Mindful Movement

https://tinyurl.com/vl74qfm

What inspires me most in this video is the statement You are your best healer that we have the capability to lessen our suffering to a great extend by practising mindfulness and finding peace.

enlightenedDo you have a favorite meditation video and what do you find most inspiring in it?

@amiablePeace77 , Gosh , that picture you posted is really gorgeous. I could spend all my evening gazing and soaking in the ecenery and ambiance. I love listening to the mindfulness tracks at 7 cups and I also like listening to talks by Mr. Goenka pertaining to Vipassana Meditation.

Thanks faithlove, I love this pic too, just imagining sitting there and absorb the peacful atmosphere.

Glad you find comfort in the meditations.

S.N. Goenka offers also a 10 day meditation course, which was on my plan but somehow forgot about it, so thanks for reminding me smiley

@amiablePeace77, I had an oppurtunity to attend the 10 days course about 2 years ago. Best decision I ever made regarding myself. tough but worth it.

@BRML hey there, I'm Mel, forum ambassador. What do you mean for altruistic reasons?
I don't get what this post is about, sounds like a pledge but I don't see it's breaking a particular rule. Please feel free to elaborate more here or in PMs, please.

wanted to clarify for everybody that expressing religion or any beliefs is okay as long as you're not trying to impose them on anyone else. There's a difference between "May God bless you", and "Do good because God says so" or anything that says you should be doing something because your own religion says so. All beliefs are accepted and respected here, as well as having no beliefs is

People have different ways to find insight or calmness. What helps you most to calm after a stressful situation or do you have a cue word like "relax" when you need to calm?

@amiablePeace77 I don't have any cue phrases. What calms me down is me. I have been doing this for so long, I no longer think about it at all.
