Meditation for the Now: No Future, No Past, Just Now

A Zen Mind Guided Meditations

Show Notes

🐚 This practice was created with the sole intention to bring you back to the now.

In 2010, Harvard University researchers found that ā€œa wandering mind is an unhappy mind." So often, our suffering isn’t coming from what’s happening right now… it’s coming from the past we’re replaying or the future we’re anticipating.

This meditation gently guides you out of that mental noise, and back into the purity of now.

Through a simple & immersive visualization, you’ll be invited to fully experience the present moment, not just understand it conceptually, but actually feel what it’s like to be here. Beyond the ego, beyond the timelines, memories and future worries.

To be grounded in your body. To be connected to your breath. To exist without needing to go anywhere else.

With love,

Jo

🫧 During this practice, we will explore a mindfulness technique called noting, which helps us become more aware of what’s happening as it happens. Here, we’ll gently name the experiences that arise: thinking, hearing, feeling. A thought, a sound, a sensation in the body, all becoming something we can notice.
