To meet whatever might come up this holiday season, we’ve gathered a few guided meditations to help you cultivate balance and equanimity in the midst of the holiday rush. 

3 Guided Meditations to Help You Breathe Through the Holiday Season

1. Let Your Practice Guide You Beyond Crisis Mode

When life feels chaotic, mindfulness can provide a safe space within ourselves for us to feel at home in. Georgina Miranda shares a variation on a loving-kindness meditation to feel more grounded and at ease, no matter your external circumstances. 

2. Allow the Storm to Pass: A Guided Meditation for Resilience

When we put space between ourselves and the whirlwinds of emotion, we can find stability and cultivate resilience. Scott Rogers leads us in this guided practice using the metaphor of a hurricane to help us recognize the qualities and the impermanence of even our stormiest emotions.
