Meditations
The Light Body
This meditation, a lightly edited version of one written by the wonderful Stephen Levine, based on teachings from the Tibetan Book of the Dead, begins with deepening awareness of your physical body. You'll explore the relationship between your "heavy body" and the "light body" of consciousness within. The practice then leads you through letting go of the heavy body and dissolving into luminous space, before being gently guided back into embodied life. This is a more direct encounter with mortality that invites you to explore what it might feel like to die—and what it might mean to choose life again.
Sacred Places
This guided meditation is designed to be listened to while sitting in a graveyard, cemetery, or place of remembrance. Find a quiet spot where you can sit comfortably and engage with this practice. Cemeteries and burial grounds have long served as places of contemplation across cultures—spaces where the veil between life and death feels thinner, and where we can sit with the reality of our shared mortality in a setting that honours it. This meditation invites you to use such a space as a teacher, allowing the presence of those who have completed their earthly journey to guide you into a deeper understanding of your own impermanence.
