In this soothing guided meditation, you'll release tension from your body, practice a balancing breath, and experience a creative visualization that takes you to a cozy cottage in the woods.

This guided relaxation follows the format of Yoga Nidra ("the sleep of the yogis"), which is a systematic way to encourage the nervous system to enter into a parasympathetic ("rest and digest") state.

In this steady, grounding practice, we explore the meeting place of resilience and softness. Through mindful movement, breath, and stillness, you’ll be invited to strengthen from within — not through force, but through deep presence and care.

Move gently. Rest deeply. Root into the quiet strength that has always been yours.

Had a long day and need some soothing? Gather your favorite blanket, maybe a cup of tea, and settle in. This guided meditation begins by helping your body unwind and your mind find rest. Then you’ll be guided through a soothing visualization to reconnect with the support that surrounds you. Finally, we’ll imagine a bonfire—a place to release whatever you’re ready to let go of. Join Serena for a quiet way to end the day feeling lighter, steadier, and more at ease.

This 15-minute online meditation blends gentle movement, breath awareness, visualization, and intention-setting. Reconnect with compassion, courage, and clarity through mental nadi shodhana and golden light imagery—guided with care by Serena Roschman. Inspired by a quote by Clarissa Pinkola Estes:

“My friends, do not lose heart. We were made for these times. I have heard from so many recently who are deeply and properly bewildered. They are concerned about the state of affairs in our world now. Ours is a time of almost daily astonishment and often righteous rage over the latest degradations of what matters most to civilized, visionary people. . . . You are right in your assessments . . . Yet, I urge you, ask you, gentle you, to please not spend your spirit dry by bewailing these difficult times. Especially do not lose hope. Most particularly because, the fact is that we were made for these times. Yes. For years, we have been learning, practicing, been in training for and just waiting to meet on this exact plain of engagement.” —Clarissa Pinkola Estes

🕯️ A steady return to the grounded, hopeful you.

People wearing you down? This gentle 15-minute meditation invites you to reconnect with the grounding presence of those who uplift and inspire you.

We’ll begin with a few intuitive movements before settling into stillness—anchored by breath and a spacious awareness of sound, thought, and sensation. You'll be guided through a calming variation of alternate nostril breathing, followed by a heart-centered visualization to reconnect with the supportive people in your life.

Inspired by the words of Dr. Will Cole—“Healed people heal people. Grounded souls center people.”—this practice is a reminder that tending to your own steadiness can ripple outward in powerful ways.

🫶 Perfect for winding down, resetting mid-day, or anytime you want to return to center with compassion.
