A Guided Meditation to Ground Yourself and Bring Awareness to Your Mind

A Guided Meditation to Ground Yourself and Bring Awareness to Your Mind

Author: Tracey Benson September 22, 2020 Duration: 21:45

Have you checked in with yourself today? 


If you’re in the mood for some much-needed relaxation, then join me in today’s episode where I’ll be talking you through a guided meditation! Moving away from my usual episodes, this one will be a little less conversation heavy and focus more on how we can ground ourselves and bring awareness to our mind through this practice. 


Meditation has been proven to produce optimal results for decades now and has even helped those with issues such as insomnia, anxiety, and generalized stress. I ask that you keep an open mind for today and participate in whatever way you feel comfortable. This could even be a great resource to revisit for future moments of decompression.  


I’ll see you there! 


In This Episode You Will Learn:


  • An introduction to today’s guided meditation (1:02)
  • A brief moment for my listeners to get comfortable in preparation for this session (2:46)
  • Calming deep breathing exercises (3:13)
  • Guided ‘body scan’ on each area of the body (4:49)
  • Bringing awareness to our breath and hearts (6:36)
  • Gratitude practice (7:38)
  • Grounding physical exercises to center yourself (15:21)
  • Conclusion for today’s meditation (16:57)

Tracey Benson hosts Joyful-Souls with Tracey Benson, a space where conversations flow into the many facets of a life well-lived. Rather than offering quick fixes, this podcast explores the deeper connections between our physical well-being, spiritual practices, and the cultural frameworks that shape our daily existence. You'll hear genuine dialogues with people who are thoughtfully navigating their own paths, discussing how intentional choices in fitness, health, and personal belief systems can coalesce into a more resonant and fulfilling experience. Each episode feels like a thoughtful conversation, one that acknowledges the complexities of modern society while seeking out moments of clarity and purpose. Tracey guides these discussions with a natural curiosity, drawing out stories that are both personal and universally relatable. The result is a collection of audio experiences that encourage you to reflect on your own alignment and intentionality. For anyone interested in the intersection of mindful living and active engagement with the world, this podcast provides a consistent and thoughtful touchpoint. It’s a series dedicated to the idea that joy isn't just a fleeting emotion, but something cultivated through conscious attention to the body, the spirit, and the communities we inhabit.
