  • Episode #51: How to Deal with an Endings in Your Life: A Powerful Meditation
    Dec 30 2025

    When something in life ends, it can be surprisingly hard to let go. In this guided meditation, we explore why endings affect us so deeply and how to meet them with awareness instead of resistance. Together, we gently notice where the body is holding on, allow the emotions to move, gain clarity, and begin to accept the reality of change. Endings don’t mean something went wrong. They’re part of being alive. This practice is an invitation to soften, breathe, and take the next step forward with a little more peace and presence.
