Arriving with Anxiety

12 min

Best for: starting practice on anxious days

On anxious days, meditation can feel impossible because we believe we have to calm down before we begin. This session offers a different doorway: you arrive with the anxiety still present, without arguing with it or trying to send it away. You'll practise a soft form of acknowledgement — letting the feeling stand close by while you settle into the breath. A grounding start to the 21-day anxiety course for anyone who has ever felt too anxious to meditate.
