Listen to the intro
What's it about?
Guided Meditation: Wiring Peace Into the Brain uses focused attention to help listeners spend more time noticing and absorbing experiences of safety, gratitude, and calm. Rather than allowing positive moments to pass unnoticed, the session encourages the mind to remain with them long enough for their emotional effect to deepen. It is inspired by Neurodharma by Rick Hanson and translates the book’s combination of neuroscience and contemplative practice into an accessible exercise for strengthening inner peace.
