Stress Relief Guided Meditation

What This Meditation Is About

This meditation helps you let go of tension, slow down your thoughts, and relax your whole body. You'll move through a short meditation that relaxes tight muscles, calms your breathing, and releases the stress you have been carrying. In just a few minutes, you'll feel calmer, relaxed, and peaceful.

How to Practice

Get Comfortable

Relax Your Body

Come Back to Yourself

  • Take one more deep breath, and carry that calm with you for the rest of your day.

How Often to Practice

  • Every day — if stress feels like part of your everyday life

  • Any time you need it — when you feel stressed, anxious, or on edge
