Ep.9 Meditation - Cultivating the Loving Witness

During this guided meditation, you are invited to experience the aspect of yourself that is the silent and compassionate witness to your life.
Behind your body, your senses and feelings, and even the thoughts of your conscious mind, you will find the loving witness. Always perfect, always present, and always content.

Justin
