Guided Meditation: Mental Cause and Effect #12

Guided Meditation: Mental Cause and Effect #12

Author: Scott Snibbe April 14, 2020 Duration: 23:30

A meditation practice of self reflection, taking control of the mental cause and effect that's normally unconscious: the habits and activities conditioned by evolution, our upbringing, society and the media. This is a practice you can do at the end of each day: reviewing your day, rejoicing in the positive, and finding ways to sincerely forgive yourself for anything that you regret, so you can sleep better and be your best self the next day.
