Mindful Meditations with Dr. Rick Hanson

Feeling Alive, Safe, and Warmhearted

Rick Hanson

When life feels overwhelming or you’re caught in tension, this meditation helps you come back to a sense of safety and ease in your body. We’ll gently explore how to settle your mind, soften around pain or anxiety, and open the heart—without forcing anything or needing to fix it.

You’re welcome to join me live each week for these meditations — free for everyone — by signing up here. We always start with a guided meditation to set the tone for the evening. If you’d like to explore the talk that followed this meditation, you can listen to it here.
