Mind Illuminated Stage One Meditation: Foundational Practice
About this episode
If you are just starting to meditate, start here. This guided session is built on Stage One of The Mind Illuminated, where the whole job is simply turning up: establishing a steady, regular practice before you worry about anything fancier.
I take you through a structured preparation, a gentle transition, and a focused sit with stretches of silence so you can settle in. Practise it often and you build the one skill everything else rests on: showing up to the cushion day after day.
