Meditation with Susanna Bair - The Qualities of Earth Susanna Bair gives a 10 minute meditation the will help you embody and experience the qualities of earth.

Susanna Bair leads a shorter meditation for those who have never meditated on their heart, which culminates in an experience of the heart.

How can we dicern the true murmurings of our heart's guidance as opposed to acting from a place of fear, wounding or of protecting ourselves? A question from the community inspires a meditation on the question.

Susanna Bair leads a meditation on the Divine Feminine using the Four Element Breaths in ascending order. In the Earth Element we experience Healing Energy, Creativity with the Water Element, Courage with Fire, and Clarity through the Air Breath.  Susanna helps us to connect with our unique feminine purpose and power through this 30 minute practice.

Meditation is more IN than ever, and rightfully so.  Relaxation and restoration, in a sense, have become quite "counter-culture."  But Heart Rhythm Meditation is not only restorative and soothing, but also strengthening and empowering.  It's for this reason among the many forms of meditation out there, we begin process of focusing an entire podcast on this practice. It's common knowledge that meditation (generally speaking) is a power tool for self-development, but why is this and why is learning it such an uphill climb for so many people? What's going on there?
