Meditation Challenge: Day 13 Listening
Namaste and welcome to day 13!

So far, you have practiced relaxing and breathing. I trust you have felt some benefits from cultivating these skills. At the same time you have been cultivating your ability to feel, to focus and, more importantly, your ability to return to your focal point after each distraction. Well done!! Now, we start applying these skills to listening to the quality of our breath.

Guided meditation below, when the recording comes to an end, take as long as you wish to enjoy the silence and to savor the effects of the practice.

Breathing and Listening,
