Guided Meditations for Every Feeling
We’ve been building a collection of video sessions from some of our favorite practitioners. The idea is to have something to turn to whether we’re celebrating joy and abundance, having trouble quieting anxieties when we wake up, or just need a spiritual hug. The meditations, breathwork practices, sound baths, and Reiki sessions below are just the first in our library. We’ll be updating this page regularly as we add to the list, and you can subscribe to the goop YouTube channel to get notifications when we have something new for you to tune in to.
The Meditations
A Beginner’s Guide to Meditation
Ryan Weiss
Life coach Ryan Weiss explains how dropping out of the mind and into the body can help us detach from the busyness and noise of everyday life. Weiss walks us through a basic meditation, focusing on the breath in order to anchor the mind—a practice as useful for a first-time meditator as it is for anyone revisiting the foundations of their meditation routine.
A Morning Meditation for Clarity, Stability, and Presence
Kate Waitzkin
To capture the feeling of the first moments of wakefulness, Austin-based yoga and meditation instructor Kate Waitzkin recorded a ten-minute guided meditation. Listen to this while you’re still in bed or anytime you’re looking to find some clarity and stillness.
An Evening Meditation for Transitioning into Sleep
Kate Waitzkin
For transitioning into sleep, yoga and meditation instructor Kate Waitzkin guides a ten-minute meditation focused on stillness and slowing down. We like to tune in to it while we’re settling into bed. But you can play it anytime you’re looking to center yourself in the present and relax.
A Heart-Opening Meditation for Manifesting Love and Connection
Alex Artymiak
Yoga teacher Alex Artymiak invites us to wiggle out tension from the body to deepen the breath and cultivate loving energy in this heart-opening meditation. Following this simple solo exercise, Artymiak explains how you can extend the practice to a friend or a partner by connecting to the rhythm of each other’s heartbeats.
A Meditation to Cultivate Gratitude
Gustavo Padron
Austin-based yoga teacher Gustavo Padron invites us to recognize all the little things in our lives that we value and the joy they inspire. Padron explains that when we focus on what we feel lucky to have, we’re better able to bask in the pleasure these things give us and carry that feeling into our day-to-day. Then Padron explains a simple practice of using gratitude to shift our energy in moments when we feel stressed and overwhelmed.
A Meditation for Emotional Spring Cleaning
Gustavo Padron
This emotional spring cleaning by yoga teacher Gustavo Padron is an opportunity to feel out areas of our lives that might be holding us back. Starting with a mindful scan of the body, Padron invites us to breathe into areas of tension in the body and release stress in every out breath. He encourages us to think of whatever it is we need to emotionally let go of, thank that thing for the gifts it might have given us, and release it—so we can welcome in something new.
Breathwork for Finding Calm
The Dojo Upstate
This guided breathwork meditation connects the body and mind to drop us into a relaxed state. With the option to lie down and place a scarf over our eyes, we’re invited to bring our attention to the body for a simple scan of our physical sensations followed by a series of easy breathing exercises.
A Binaural Sound Meditation for Releasing Stress and Anxiety
The Dojo Upstate
For this binaural sound meditation, you’ll need a pair of headphones or earbuds. (It’s recorded using two microphones so that the sounds coming through each ear are different.) Simply listen and observe what you feel without judgment or attachment.
Morning Reiki Meditation
Jasmin Harsono
Holistic healer Jasmin Harsono works with a Reiki energy technique called three diamond breath. Here, Harsono walks us through deep breaths and affirmations focused on opening up the three primary Reiki centers to cultivate vibrancy in the body, wisdom in the heart, and clarity in the mind.
