Yes Meditation

Led by Jivana Heyman

In this meditation, we’ll practice mindfulness and acceptance of our thoughts. Our mind is often hard to turn off. So rather than trying to stop your thoughts, this practice guides you to notice and even celebrate them with the word ‘yes.’ In doing so, we cultivate greater awareness of our thoughts, without judgment, and anchor into the present moment.
