Recording self-compassion meditations

Last week I spent 3 days in the South of England in a small village near Brighton where, in the home professional sound studio of a recording artist friend, I recorded the self-compassion meditations that we are going to learn on the Cultivating Self Compassion 6-week training starting in Oct. Three days in total, we recorded 24 self-compassion meditation tracks.

Placed in the small recording room, which was sound proofed from ceiling to floor with large gray foam absorbers, I sat in front of the recording mic with a view over the beautiful blue sea. In the next room were banks of amplifiers, microphones, headsets, baffles and a huge screen to display the digital mixing, where my friend recorded and edited the tracks.

These self-compassion meditations have been created especially for the Cultivating Self Compassion training and the Blossome self-care community. They will aid in the training of self-compassion skills which can regulate our nervous systems to reduce anxiety, stress, and depression as well as cultivating  positive qualities such as compassion, self-care, happiness, resilience and hope.

The Blossome Cultivating Self-Compassion programme is designed specifically for those impacted by addiction within their family or social circle. Learn to treat yourself with the same kindness and support that you would give to a good friend. The programme will provide tools for responding in a kind and compassionate way towards yourself, when you are faced with painful situations and emotions. Apply for a free space on this page.
