Breath of Aloha...with Ka Manu Iwa

Guided mindfulness sessions may be beneficial in relieving stress and anxiety, help to calm the mind, refresh the body, and engage the spirit as part of everyday self-care, and total well-being. These sessions are a helpful companion for beginning meditators or at any stage of your practice. Guided sessions can be done while sitting or lying down, with your eyes either closed or open. Most of our sessions are short in duration (under 10-mins), and can be conveniently done anywhere, and anytime. The shortest is only 3-min, try it on your next walk going from one appointment to your next, or to help keep you centered, and provide balance before a meeting. Real, friendly, and caring vocals (designated special events and episodes with music/chant, and are longer) . These gently guided audio sessions are not intended for use while driving a vehicle or operating machinery--activities which need your full, and alert focus. In English, Tagalog, and ʻŌlelo Hawaiʻi. Be mindful, be aware, and breathe into a state of pure, and blissful sweet aloha with Ka Manu Iwa!
