Mindful Meditations with Dr. Rick Hanson
Three Kinds of Calm
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This meditation guides you through three stages of calm: warm heartedness, contentment, and peace. It begins by settling into the body and breath, then opens into feelings of kindness and connection, and finally into a quiet sense of being already okay in the present.
