Coffee and Meditation

This episode is a 15-minute guided meditation called The 4 Check-Ins, designed to gently bring you back into presence. We move through four simple but powerful points of awareness: breath, body, thoughts, and emotions. By checking in with each one, we create space between our inner experience and the stories we attach to it—grounding ourselves in what’s real, here and now. It’s a calm, stabilising practice you can return to whenever you feel overwhelmed, disconnected, or in need of a mindful reset.

This 15-minute meditation invites you to gently connect with physical pain or injury, offering it your awareness and curiosity. Through guided dialogue with the body, you’ll begin to uncover what your pain is asking of you, and how it may be affecting your emotional landscape. Listening deeply to pain can reveal insights and support the healing process. For more information about me: innershiftpsychology.com @leslie.innershift #meditation #bodyawareness #healingjourney

This is a 20-minute meditation for taking the pressure off; for learning to acknowledge the amount of resposibility you can actually handle, and letting go of the rest. I hope you enjoy. :) Find me: IG: @inner.shift.psychology innershiftpsychology.com

This is a 5-minute meditation for those who struggle with meditating or are just starting out. There is no right or wrong way to meditate, it is a practice. The more we do, the better we get. The only wrong way to meditate is not meditating. Try this practice if you have a mind that races all over the place when you try to meditate. When 5 minutes becomes easy, go for ten. I hope you enjoy. :)   innershiftpsychology.com

This is a 20-minute meditation for taking care of feelings of anger. Anger comes up in everyone-- rather than ignoring it, pushing it down or away, trying to hide it, feeling guilty about it or chastising it, we are going to be present for our anger and learn to communicate with it to better understand why it is there and what it needs from us. Have a journal handy for recording your discoveries. I hope you enjoy. :)   innershiftpsychology.com

In this 25-minute meditation, we go deep into any feeling that is resting in our body today - whether we are dealing with anger, sadness, fear, guilt, frustration, shame, or joy, this practice will teach us to stop ignoring our emotions and instead, pick them up in our arms and look deeply into them. Our emotions, when paid attention to, can tell us our needs and help release pressure on our nervous system. I hope you enjoy! IG: inner.shift.psychology More information: innershiftpsychology.com

Today's practice is about realising that we don't have to do anything during meditation; it's about experiencing what it's like to take off the pressure of thinking or doing anything in any particular way. In this practice, we learn to just be. I hope you enjoy. More about me: IG: inner.shift.psychology innershiftpsychology.com

In this 20-minute practice; we explore who we are beneath all the roles. Beyond the job, the relationship, the family role, the clothes, the practices, the definitions of self and the ego. Who are we, and who are we in each new moment ? Can we grow forward from whatever moment we are in ? Can we grow from whomever we are today ? I hope you enjoy.
