Twenty-one - The Unknown : Fear, Risk, Failure and Success | Have you ever wanted to acheive something, but chosen not to try because you were afraid of failure? Taking a risk means inviting a change into our lives. Success may mean satisfaction or reward, but it can also lead us into life's uncharted territory: the Unknown. On the other hand, failure may mean disappointment or shame, but it may also allow us to stay in life's comfort zone. The Unknown can be a terrifying place, and if our subconscious is not prepared, we may block our own success, without even realizing it! In today's meditation, we'll seek a new perspective on a past failure. Next, we'll imagine a risk, and create a mental "What if I Win" map for the Unknown. Remember that this podcast uses binaural beat technology that affects the brain, so please use headphones and do not use this podcast while driving.

Nineteen - Money | Find us on Facebook at facebook.com/theMeditationPodcast. This is Episode Nineteen: Money. The concept of Money, even the word 'money', can be emotionally charged for many people. Many of us carry ideas, baggage, or even trauma around money, that no longer serves our highest good. This can inhibit the natural flow of money through our hands and through our lives. In today's meditation, we explore the true meaning of money, and our relationship to it. More importantly, we release any fears and emotions that we may hold toward money, allowing us to reach our potential for wealth and prosperity. Finally, we use a special manifestation blessing to attract an influx of money into our lives. Remember that this meditation uses binaural beats that affect the brain, so please use headphones, and do not use this podcast while driving or operating machinery. Please note that we are not health care practitioners, nor are we financial advisors, and we do not claim any specific health -- or wealth -- benefits from using this podcast.

Eighteen - Our Story | Our Story - an open letter to our listeners Welcome to The Meditation Podcast, with Jesse and Jeane Stern. Over the last few years, between 2007 and 2011, we received hundreds of emails from people, asking why we stopped updating our podcast, and whether we were going to continue. We gave the vague answer that we were going through personal challenges. Well, we've decided to take the time to explain, and today we ask you to indulge us in telling our story. Now, let's begin. In 2006, the year that we started the Meditation Podcast, Jeane lost her birth father due to complications from Leukemia. We were just recovering from the loss of a baby the year before in a late-term miscarriage. In 2007, Jeane's oldest sister, who was also her best friend, died suddenly from a ruptured brain aneurysm. Her aunt and three of her cousins died, two in tragic accidents (one at sea, and one on a motorcycle). Her adoptive parents, who had raised her since birth, died in 2008. Her mother died first from a stroke, then her father two and a half months later from heart failure. I lost my grandmother in 2009, and then my uncle died in 2010, after a long-term fight with cancer. The grieving process was compounded, and seemed endless. All of these deaths in our family took a toll on us emotionally, spiritually and financially. This also affected our marriage. Ironically, it was also during this time that our careers started to change. For one, I began to travel more for work. We both spent most of our time working and recovering from the years of stress and grief. Some of our challenges are not over yet, but we are learning to go through them. These years have shown us what is most important in our lives, and how precious life is. We can both clearly attest that what has not killed us has made us stronger. It was last year, in 2011, that we profoundly realized how much we needed to continue the podcast, in spite of our distractions. That's when we finally decided to re-commit ourselves to regular updates, and to staying in touch with all of you. We know how important this podcast is to you. We want to let you know today that it is just as important to us. Your many donations and emails have shown us how much the podcast has made a positive difference in your lives. And we will continue making them for as long as you keep listening! | 23/1/12 | Gratis | Ver en iTunes |

Seventeen - Renewal | The word "renew" means "to begin again". Whatever changes we wish to make in our lives, the renewal starts within. As we release old habits and emotions, we make room for powerful healing and regeneration. In this meditation we refresh ourselves in body, mind, and spirit, allowing us to truly begin again. As always, this podcast uses audio technology that affects the brain. Please use headphones, and do not use this podcast while driving or operating machinery. Finally, we are not licensed health care practitioners, and we do not claim any specific health benefits from using this podcast. You are responsible for your own health.

Sixteen - Sit Still and Breathe | In any art or occupation, it's a good idea to go back to basics from time to time. The art of meditation can be a lot of things, but in its most basic sense it is just sitting still and breathing. This, all by itself, can be a profound experience, and it builds a safe and solid foundation for more advanced techniques. More than anything else, we take our breath for granted. It's the activity that we need most to survive, we can start or stop it at will, and yet most of the time we do it without even noticing. Noticing a thing, without adjusting, is an important part of self acceptance. The intent in today's meditation is to notice the breath, just as it is, without trying to adjust or improve it. While sitting still, just notice your posture, without trying to make it "better". As the mind races, thoughts distract us, and we are not trying to "improve" with a mantra or focus - just gently returning to the foundation: Sit Still and Breathe. Please note that we are not licensed health care practitioners, and we do not claim any specific health benefits from using this podcast. You are responsible for your own health!

Fourteen - Rejuvenating Sleep | In our busy lives, many of us have trouble sleeping. We awaken feeling tired, overwhelmed. This is because many of us have suppressed our bodies' natural ability to renew ourselves. This meditation is designed not only to help you fall asleep, but to enter an inner world of peaceful rest. This meditation is open-ended, without the usual "return" to wakeful awareness, so it is highly recommended that you use the companion Episode 15 - Wake Up, after you wake up from using this one. Even during our long absence from The Meditation Podcast, we continued to receive donations and emails from all over the world, and we want to thank all of you for your ongoing support! It means a lot to know that our podcast is making a difference in people's lives. If you feel that The Meditation Podcast has benefitted you in some way, please let us know about it, and consider making a donation at The Meditation Podcast (dot) com.

Thirteen - Finding Your Voice | Through the course of our daily lives, it's possible for us to forget how to express our true selves. This can manifest as shyness, sore throat, vocal polyps, even a complete loss of the speaking or singing voice. In today's meditation, we make sound in our bodies, allowing our vocal cords to simply vibrate. The intent of this meditation is to align the expressive functions of the body and mind, to create a healthy path for voicing one's thoughts and feelings, and to release any unexpressed thoughts or feelings, transforming them into Unconditional Love. At a point in the meditation, you will be guided to make vocal sounds. Please note that the vibration in your body is more important than the quality of the sound. It doesn't matter if it's loud or soft, high or low, pretty or ugly, just make a sound that you can feel vibrating somewhere in your body. As always, this meditation uses special sound technology to help move the listener into a meditative state. Thus, please use headphones when using this podcast, and please do not listen while driving or operating machinery. Finally, please remember that we are not licensed health care practitioners, and we do not claim any specific health effects from using this meditation.

Ten - Releasing Fear | Welcome to The Meditation Podcast, with Jesse and Jeane Stern. Jesse and I want to thank you all for your patience and generosity. We have had a lot of activity in our lives - all very good. However, it has delayed our steady delivery of meditations. Your emails and letters have shown us how much the meditations have helped you in your lives. We want to continue to help. As children, we know no fear. We run, we jump, we play, without thinking about any consequences, or being hurt. However, as we grow, we start to experience fear. Things we have heard or seen, or maybe our own personal experiences, leave us traumatized and frightened. Most of us want to move forward, build our dreams, but we feel stuck, paralyzed. This meditation helps us break down the walls of fear so that we can reach our dreams, and become who we truly are. Releasing Fear Find a quiet spot to sit or lie down where you are not likely to be disturbed. Remove or loosen any uncomfortable clothing. Turn off or silence your phone. Now, let's begin. | 9/10/07 | Gratis | Ver en iTunes |

Nine - Addiction | Welcome to The Meditation Podcast, with Jesse and Jeane Stern. There are different ways an addiction can begin. It may start as recreation, medical necessity, relaxation or comfort. Addiction can take the form of food, alcohol, drugs, sex and more. The common thread is the desire to fill a void, especially when situations are beyond our control. Eventually addiction grabs hold in the subconscious mind, and the void becomes a physical dependency. It is possible to break this dependency in the subconscious. In this meditation, the focus will be on releasing the mental hold of addiction, and finding a safe and peaceful place within. Please note that we are not licensed health care practitioners, and we do not claim any specific health effects from using this meditation. This podcast is meant for educational use only, and not as a replacement for traditional professional medical treatment. It is simply to enhance and support one's journey toward recovery.

Eight - Transformational Breathing | Welcome to The Meditation Podcast, with Jesse and Jeane Stern. Anxiety, anger grief and fear are examples of persistent emotional states that linger because of our unwillingness or inability to let go of past experiences.

Please consult your health care professional before using it. We are not licensed health care practitioners, and we do not claim any specific health effects from using this meditation.

Seven - Your Sacred Space | Welcome to The Meditation Podcast, with Jesse and Jeane Stern. First of all, we apologize for our April episode coming out so late.

We will guide you through a technique that takes you into a sacred place - your own inner sanctum or sacred grove. In this place, you can regenerate your energy, renew your creativity, and gain a new perspective on choices you may have to make. Remember that while this podcast uses guided imagery, it also uses sound technology that affects the right and left sides of the brain, to help us enter a deeper state of relaxation and meditation. Thus, it works best with headphones, and should not be used while driving. The Meditation Podcast is produced by Jesse and Jeane Stern, and is available at TheMeditationPodcast.com.

Welcome to the Meditation Podcast, with Jesse and Jeane Stern, a podcast that will help you benefit from meditation in your everyday life. Many of us have trouble falling asleep.

Five - Healing Series, Part 2 | This meditation is part two of our series on deep-level healing. As we continue to heal our consciousness of past anger, resentment or guilt, we can begin the healing process on a physical level. We can now visualize whole health in the areas of our bodies that have been afflicted with ailments and diseases. It is important to understand that this is not an instant cure, but a process which can be done daily. This style of meditation is non-denominational, and we believe it can be used in conjunction with - or separate from - any set of religious or spiritual beliefs. Please be advised, we are not licensed health care practitioners, and we do not guarantee any specific health effects from using this meditation.

Four - Healing Series, Part 1 | Before we begin, we would like to again thank everyone who donated and sent in their suggestions, and to share a few of our plans for the podcast. First, thanks to your donations, we will be able to set up a hosted web site, and we plan to have the new site up and running by the end of February! The new site will have a community message board, as well as a full archive of episodes and transcripts! For the technophobe, we have been thinking about offering limited-edition CD's for every 3 episodes of the podcast - 1-3, 4-6, and so on. Please let us know if you'd be interested! Finally, many of you have expressed that you would like to hear interviews, but also to continue the guided meditations. So, we plan to keep guided meditations as the main focus of the podcast, and to add interviews as bonus episodes. Welcome to the Meditation Podcast, with Jesse and Jeane Stern, a podcast that will help you benefit from meditation in your everyday life. This meditation is part One of a series that focuses on deep-level healing. Healing begins in our consciousness. Our mental and emotional states play a big part in our health. It is natural to feel a full range of emotions. However, when we hold onto anger, resentment or guilt, and these feelings are not processed and released, they stagnate within the body, causing illness and dis-ease. This meditation, which can be used daily, can help you process these feelings, and bring about total well being. This style of meditation is non-denominational, and we believe it can be used in conjunction with - or separate from - any set of religious or spiritual beliefs.

Three - Positive Thoughts | Before we begin, we would like to thank everyone who has emailed us and reviewed the podcast. We appreciate your support! Also, please let us know what you would like to hear in future episodes of The Meditation Podcast. We have several guests in mind for 2007. Would you like to hear interviews about meditation? Stories about how meditation has affected people's lives? Would you like to learn about meditation from different cultures and traditions? Would you like to hear conversations about meditation from around the world? Please email your comments and suggestions for future episodes to themeditationpodcast at gmail dot com. As a last-minute update, I fixed the Donate button on our web site, so that you can donate any amount (it was stuck at 30)! Thanks to isa-lee for bringing this to our attention! I will mention it out loud on the next episode. Welcome to The Meditation Podcast, with Jeane and Jesse Stern, a new podcast that will help you benefit from meditation in your everyday life. This month, we will focus on healing through visualization. Each of us, whether we realize it or not, abides by a universal law of attraction. What we think about, and talk about, we attract into our lives -- no matter whether we think about wanting it, or not wanting it. Therefore it is very important to think constructively. So rather than saying, 'I don't want to have these health problems anymore,' say 'I'm so glad to be healthy!' or 'I want perfect health.' Instead of trying to get out of debt, try to attain prosperity. Don't anticipate conflict with your loved ones or co-workers -- instead, imagine what it would be like to be in total harmony with them. If you hate war, try loving peace instead. This concept may seem strange at first, but it's a very powerful exercise. When we began doing it, we noticed major changes in every area of our lives. Even if a positive thought or feeling doesn't seem true for you, just try imagining 'what would it be like?' or 'wouldn't it be nice?' Remember that while this podcast uses guided imagery, it also uses sound technology that affects the right and left sides of the brain, to help us enter a deeper state of meditation and relaxation. Thus, it works best with headphones and should not be used while driving. Remove or loosen any uncomfortable clothing.

Two - Calming the Body | This month's podcast is about calming the body. It sends a wave of relaxation from the tips of the toes to the top of the head. This helps us reduce stress, relax the body, and relax the mind as well. And this allows us to go deeper into a meditative state, making us more productive in our lives, and more peaceful in our hearts. Remember that while this podcast uses guided imagery, it also uses sound technology that affects the right and left sides of the brain, to help us enter a deeper state of relaxation and meditation.

One - A Basic Meditation | We decided to make this podcast to help regular people who want to learn and practice meditation. This style of meditation is non-denominational, and we believe it can be used in conjunction with - or separate from - any set of religious or spiritual beliefs. The first episode is a basic meditation that uses the breath to enter a deep state of relaxation and peace. This audio is most effective through headphones -- while the instruction works through speakers, the audio includes tones that are designed to help enter a relaxed state, using a technology that sends messages to the right and left sides of the brain. Thus, it works best through headphones. A word of caution though: For some people this can be very relaxing. While inherently safe, you might fall asleep, so please don't listen to this podcast while driving! What is Meditation In its simplest sense, meditation is sitting still and breathing. You might sit, stand or lie down -- some forms of mediation even involve movement -- but the idea is to break away from habitual movement, such as fidgeting, and the impulse to 'do' something. By focusing on the breath, we focus on the most important aspect of life. We wouldn't survive long without breath, so why not spend a few moments paying attention to our breathing? Why Meditate Since you are listening to this podcast, you probably already have your own reasons why you want to begin or continue a practice of meditation. Here are a few of my reasons: I meditate because it energizes my spirit, body and mind, and brings me closer to the source of who I am. By focusing on my breath, I carry that breath into the core of my being. This has a healing and calming effect. Meditation also brings me clarity. By stepping back from a situation or problem, I can then approach it from a new angle. Finally, not only does it help break habitual patterns of movement and 'doing', it also helps me break out of unhealthy patterns in my life. | 3/10/06 | Gratis | Ver en iTunes |
