Today, I offer a guided meditation where I will help find your calm, your place of peace. I’m going to take you to a place where calm exists constantly. Let’s take a walk. We’ve arrived at a wooded area where the trees and the plants are vibrant and full of life, The air is fresh and clean and there are huge, healthy ferns all along the pathway. The ferns and plants are covering the floor of the forest. You walk casually, you feel calm. The level of calm is increasing by the minute, You notice a feeling of relaxation in your forehead and eyes. Your jaw begins to relax. You pause and enjoy the feeling of letting go, Letting go of tension and stress, letting go of what’s not feeding and nourishing you. You remember to notice your breath and you are grateful as you fill your lungs with air. This is a calm, relaxing, peaceful place. Your gratitude level increases and you feel strong and in control. The pathway is leading you toward a beautiful sound, the sound of water, the sound of waves. You walk a little more

I’m Bruce Langford, host of Mindfulness Mode. I'm here to share a meditation of strength; a meditation to help you move through this COVID19 situation. This is a time for strength, confidence, and empowerment. And you have these within you. You may not feel it right now, but that strength is within you. This is a time to focus on what we do have control over. We can choose what we focus on. We will choose strength. We will choose to accept social distancing because its the right thing at this time. Let’s get started with the meditation. Make sure you’re comfortable, in a chair or on a cushion. Sit upright, so your spine is straight. Sit with confidence. If you're driving a car or operating machinery, listen to this meditation later. Begin to breathe deeply, take a breath in, and then let it go. Breathe in through your nose if possible, if not, just breathe comfortably in, then out. Remember - you have control over your breath, this is important to remember, breathe, just breathe. Now is a time to acknowledge
