Guided Meditations with Samantha CaseSlow Body Scan Meditation for Grounding and Embodiment | 19 MinutesIn phases of uncertainty and instability, grounding through the body is particularly important to help us stay centered and connected to our physical experience of the world. Body scans can also be supportive for people who tend to ruminate, overthink, or experience anxiety. Moving awareness through the body helps move our focus from the mind and into our somatic (bodily) experience. As I guide you through different areas of the body, try to feel that area “from the inside out”—noticing sensations like tingling, vibrating, pulsating, warmth and coolness, or numbness. It’s not unusual for there to be a lack o...2025-03-1219 minGuided Meditations with Samantha CaseGentle Morning Movement & Grounding Practice | 12 MinutesStart the day (or take a break in the middle of the day) with this standing, gentle movement practice to ground your energy and bring your awareness into the body. If you’re unable to stand, you can just as easily do this practice while seated in a chair with you feet on the ground. We spend so much of the day using our minds, analyzing, and thinking. This is an embodiment practice to balance your attention between mind and body.For more products, writings, and resources centered around mindfulness, visit www.samanthacase.com2025-02-2613 minGuided Meditations with Samantha Case4-7-8 Breathing for Anxiety & Sleep Support | 10 Minute Breathing ExerciseBreathing techniques offer instant medicine to an unregulated nervous system. This technique, called 4-7-8 breathing, is an emotional regulation tool and involves inhaling through the nose for a count of 4, holding the breath for 7 seconds, and then exhaling through the nose for a count of 8 seconds. It can bring immediate relief to an anxious mind and body, help you to calm the nervous system before sleeping, or even be used between daily activities to counteract busyness and overwhelm and promote presence.

For some people, using the breath to anchor the attention can actually have the opposite effect and produce anxiety rather than feel calming. If it’s difficult for you to be with the breath, you can always anchor your attention on awareness in the body instead: sensations in the feet or hands, or maybe the pressure of the seat or floor against your sit bones. See what works best for you. And remember: if your mind feels busy—even extr...2025-01-1510 minGuided Meditations with Samantha CaseA Talk on Equanimity for the New YearEquanimity refers to a state of being where we are able to maintain a balanced and steady state of mind regardless of what’s happening in our lives, whether it’s on a small scale or a large scale. I felt inspired to offer this talk for the new year because I think it's a good time to be reminded that we have the capacity to relate to our experiences differently. On any given day, and especially within an entire year, there are so many things that happen to us—big and small—that are out of our control and can...2025-01-1116 minGuided Meditations with Samantha CaseBeginning the New Year Fresh | 11 Minute Guided MeditationHappy New Year!

On the shortest day of the year, or maybe in this season of winter, join me to pause in the space of darkness before we welcome the light in. In this meditation we honor the duality in both nature and ourselves as we move with the image of a candle flame through the different parts of the body.

We begin by tuning into the feet, then move our awareness through the body before resting our attention in the body or the breath. We don’t bring much movement into this practice, so if it feels good for you to roll your shoulders or shake out the limbs before starting, please do so!2024-12-0512 minGuided Meditations with Samantha CaseA Talk on Gratitude: What It Is & How to Cultivate ItIn this talk, we explore the power of living with gratitude, what can get in the way of feeling gratitude, and how we can intentionally cultivate it in our lives, including recognizing the interconnected nature of life and the impermanence of all things.

Beginning in the body can help the mind to calm and the body to feel more grounded. We then take some time to be with the breath. Like the poem at the end speaks to, when we take time to be with ourselves and connect with the breath, it is like sowing clover for a world in need of so much care.

This can make it difficult to turn off from work and be present with our loved ones and ourselves. Often times, presence and stillness can be just a few deep breaths away.

Sometimes we even absorb this forward momentum in our body posture, causing us to rush even when we don’t need to. In this meditation we practice literally relaxing our posture backwards and opening a space for ourselves to be with whatever is unfolding in the moment, including the environment around us.

Meditation is simply the practice of showing up, connecting to the breath, and noticing whatever we're experiencing physically, emotionally, or mentally without judgment. It's normal for your mind to wander, even if it's every other second. Try to let go of any goals that you bring to your meditation practice and see if you can simply connect with your breath, over and over again.2021-07-2306 minGuided Meditations with Samantha Case10 Minute Guided Meditation for BusynessBusyness is a state of being that we are trained to operate within.

I hope you can let yourself unwind for a moment in this meditation.2021-07-1511 min
