Join us in this guided meditation to embody joy through the practice of a breathing technique that reduces stress quickly—two breaths in, one breath out. As you become more relaxed, you are invited to reflect on your most joyful memories, explore the mystery of life's unfolding, and discover how letting go can bring more happiness into your life. Relax, breathe deeply, and find the balance between control and letting go, conscious choice and releasing into the great unknown.
