You're just one of those likable guys. When people think of you they smile and think "Thank God for George." Hard to pin point it, just the presence you exude.
One of the greatest gifts that Taoism/ meditation can give. The ancient Chinese called this effortless charisma ‘De’
Thank you for your very kind comment! ❤️
I love the fact that you speak of anxiety and how to deal with it… not an ordinary meditation, but you learn how to accept it, not ignore it. ❤️
Thanks for the lovely comment Ozren! 🙏
Thank you George. You are such a wise young human, and i imagine you one day being a great master. I look forward to living my Life along and maybe one day in the future even meeting you. Love
Thank you, George. Much love for everyone! ❤
Just finished the book Breathe by James Nestor and found this video to be very relevant.
As always thank you for helping the community.
I'm so glad you found the video valuable! Sending love 🫶
Fantastic ❤ my experience was interrupted twice with commercial ads coming through, anyone having the same? Extra challenging 😁
I understand the struggle... but on the bright side, those ads are reminding us that we are still clinging onto something while meditating (like demanding calm, or relaxation), while in truth we just should be still and let it go, pressing skip on those ads doesn't mean we are failed on the meditation :)
Apologies, that was a mistake! I've removed midroll ads on all recent guided meditations. Thanks for pointing it out! 🧘♂️🙏🧘♀️
Thank you George for your loving and kind energy you put in every video. I've learned so much from you. ❤
Thank you for your very kind comment! I'm really glad you are enjoying and getting something from the videos - it's my privilege!
this brought me to tears in the softest way possible. thank you
Thankyou so much for this meditation George. My anxiety and fear has been quite strong the last few days knowing that a 323 hectare hazard reduction burn around our entire property that we heard was being planned 4yrs ago is finally going to occur this weekend.😓Over the 4yrs we have done what we can to minimise the risk to us and to the beautiful flora and fauna. I really found that your message "don't fight the anxiety just observe that it is there" is so helpful. Currently I feel my mind is doing its best to deal with a situation that it really can't do anything about so to deny it that right to go through the motions would cause more emotional turmoil. I could go on but I won't other than to once again thankyou. 🙏
Thank you, you helped me understand that meditation is not a training to be perfectly done but an exercise in learning how to come back to center when distractions arise. These techniques and acceptance of what is have given me an inner peacefulness and the ability to get there when I’m feeling distressed. Much love
Hi Pam, I'm really glad you are enjoying and getting something from the videos - it's my privilege! Sending warmth ❤️

Nice setting - where are you!?

@@George-Thompson Its great thank you. I like back brain meditation which I find helps settle thoughts and meditate with an empty/spacious mind after Micro Cosmic Meditation. I feel only energy and thoughts settle. Your breathing techniques from the past and now have always helped me. I really appreciate your youtube videos. Great stuff. :)
