Publisher's summary

Become mindfully awake as you sharpen your focus on each of your senses. Deep breaths and the music of shruti and chimes underscore this guided meditation.   

Jesse Israel was a successful music executive running his own label when debilitating anxiety and panic attacks forced him to step back and seek help. When he found meditation, it inspired him to switch gears in a big way. He founded The Big Quiet, a mass meditation movement that gathers thousands of people for large-scale moments of quiet around the world (including for Oprah’s 2020 Vision Tour with WW).   

Guided by leading experts and personalities in wellness, morning meditations are brief listens focused specifically on helping you start your day on the right foot. They don’t require any previous experience - they're easy to get into and designed to help you take a moment each morning to simply check in with yourself.    

This title is part of the Audible Sleep Collection, exclusive audio experiences created to help you fall asleep, stay asleep, and wake up in the right morning mindset. New and free for members.

Excellent

This is very well done. I’ve taught meditation over a number of years. Sometimes, as with myself today coming out of 5 day illness unable to hold anything down and being weak, I couldn’t focus to bring myself back to a centered, vibrant and alive place. My brain and energy were too scattered.

The breathing with the vibratory background, the wakening of the senses, the shift in sound and his vocal direction cleared my foggy brain and brought me back into a much more alert and alive state.

Thank you so much. This will be an ongoing favorite.

Really relaxing

Drift into mindfulness awareness of now. This short guided meditation leaves you refreshed and ready for living your life intentional. Enjoy

Love those chimes

Beautiful meditation to start the day. I particularly liked the musicality of the chimes and even wished there were a bit more of that.

All Sense in One!

Amazing experience by coming aware of all the senses and opening the possibility of even experiencing all at once!

Nice flow to start the day!

Very different..incredible sounds and just enough talk.
Great voice left me relaxed and energized

Amazing start to the day

Listen to this if you want to start your day right. You will feel recharged and ready for the challenges ahead.

meh

This is pretty same-old, same-old, which was disappointing for me bc I thought it was going to include some guided nature imagery or something to take my senses ELSEWHERE, rather than my very stale "here." Definitely don't like the harsh chimey sounds either.

Calming, Smooth

Nice even tones with voice and vibrational sounds. I like that he brings in all the senses. Great for a morning walk.

Really works for me

I use this every morning and it really helps me to prepare for my day

Fantastic guided meditation

I think this would be a great selection for anyone just starting the meditation practice as it seemed to make clearing my mind easier than usual, also it’s short while still being effective! I have it only 4 star in story category only because I’d have liked to hear a short introductory message about how this specific meditation “sensory awakening “ will benefit me! However that’s just my personal preference and I am sure others would appreciate that about it, & I can see why they’d not include it as it would make it a longer time commitment so not as appealing for most! Overall one of my favorites & definitely one I recommend! Thanks for such great content! 🙏
