Click here to listen to a guided meditation for peacefulness

Returning to the rhythms,
I fall asleep to the chorus of crickets
and rise with the beauty of birdsong.

All is well here.

The trees reach upwards,
as tall and as beautiful
as any cathedral.

I allow my tired mind to rest.

My eyes widen in curiosity —
I smile gently,
in awe.

Gratitude arises.

There’s nowhere to run to,
no clock to punch,
nothing to do.

My breathing deepens.

A thought flitters past:
This is Peace.
This is Home.
