Thank you so very much. I have relapsed after 10 years and I thank the universe that I have found your channel. I’m consistantly listening to your videos at work and home so that I can retrain my brain. You are a blessing and keep doing what you’re doing bc your journey is helping many others out there. Sending love and light to everyone in thee Challenging moments
thank you for this video. it really helped me a lot. I’ve done a lot of research about rocd and ra and they always say to accept the feelings and thoughts or sensations but I always struggled with it. But this meditation really helped me accept and be mindful.
@@gisseller9761 you’re welcome! Learning additional recovery skills from a Specialist will make a huge difference. These can’t be taught effectively here. We have programs if you’re interested!
Thank you so much for this. It was really enjoyable and eye opening for me, since from time to time I "forget" to stop trying to get rid of it and sitting with it instead. I will add this gem to my daily practice ❤ THANK YOU and to whomever is reading this and struggling: YOU👏🏽CAN👏🏽DO👏🏽THIS👏🏽. I could, YOU CAN. It's gonna be hard sometimes but aren't some days hard even for those who don't struggle with mental health issues? All days are different for everyone, remember that and I promise you it will help in those days when it becomes a little harder. WE GOT THIS!
What did you think of this video/meditation? Your feedback is greatly appreciated! I highly suggest using it daily, if possible. Invest 15 minutes in YOU(r) recovery!
Hello, thank you for this meditation. I did enjoy it but think it could have been helpful to walk us through any physical discomfort a bit more. For me, sometimes the difficulty of sitting with feelings in my body that feel scary are what makes being in my head feel like the more comfortable option. I would have liked some acknowledgment that sitting with the feelings may be difficult and that this is normal and safe to stay with. Just my two cents. Thank you!
Thank you for this. I am slowly learning to live with my OCD. Your insight on how we should just observe the compulsions, and how we are training to sit within the uncomfortableness has really helped me. Thank you. Peace and love.
I just found this and I cried through the meditation but began to feel so much freer. I will be coming back to this and other videos to help me slow down. Thank you so so much. ❤️
This was really helpful just now. I woke up with sudden anxiety with the thought of "I haven't found the love of my life because in my dream I said "I want to find the love of my life" which made me question my love for my partner and spiral into investigating the thought and feeling which I believe to be a irrational untrue thought. I don't know why this thought really came up which is why I started to try and pull it apart. After doing this meditation I feel more relaxed and less anxious giving me more room for positive thoughts to combat the negative. It's still difficult but I hope I am improving
Very good and enlightening to just accept and witness the feeling, not get attached & then discover the anxiety go. I have contamination ocd and compulsed to clean, this has helped straight away, thank you 🙏🙏🙏xxx
Love this, it helps to have something else to do with your thoughts and stops me from acting on compulsions and makes more comfortable when thoughts do come up. TY Danielle
I found this very helpful I have tried meditations and they never resonate with me This the way you said to focus on my body really helped Thank you for putting this together I’m thankful and will check out your other videos
You are wonderful Danielle ! I have had chronic insomnia since January of 2023, and I play your 2 hour talk down every night. I'm obsessing that I'm going to accidentally fall asleep, at a quarterly work meeting. Maybe this will help me relax. :)
Great! I would love more meditation videos! Also I was wondering if you could do a video on the healing process ( resistance, challenges and maybe a video of someone who has reached the recovery stage that can talk about all the hard work/ challenges ) :D
My anxiety got worse. When you said it should have alleviated, but mine had actually worsened, I then got even more distressed, as it made me think that this is not really ROCD and what I feel is real, which is my biggest fear. I’m really triggered and in tears 😭.
What makes your anxiety worse are the compulsions, things, like ruminating, analyzing, checking, hyperfocusing, and many many more. When you stop compulsions, discomfort lowers.
I am. Always tensed in front of boys. It is ok to talk to girls. When it comes to talk to men i am always tensed. I want to lead a peaceful and happy life. I am always engaged. I does a lots of activities like meditation, exercise, listens to music, goes for cycling, watchesmovies, short films, stsnd up comedies, plays games like badminton, chess, cards etc. I am always tensed. I want to enjoy my life and wants to lead a pescful life. I wants to make memories. I attends public gatherings, attends psc exams, etc
Thank you so much. Great meditation. I loved the music, the voice over instructions, reminders, etc. One part especially helpful for me was how you said to just focus on the breath (If the first feeling subsided) while not engaging in the OCD thoughts. Please More videos like this!!!
I like it and I am still kind of struggling with my OCD because I have some Cognitive Issues and it is triggering my OCD badly to have me arguing with my thoughts but this calmed me down though.
This was a fantastic meditation Danielle. Do you offer small support group for ocd or only one to one coaching. I would love a meditation to help with sleeping issues as a result of ocd. Insomnia is one of the biggest triggers for me. Thank you! Lovely calming voice too
Thanks for sharing this I really like it! I’m doing your course and having a hard time not doing compulsions when I do ERP. I’m curious, am I doing ERP when I’m doing this meditation or do I need to be more focused on my specific thoughts for it to be ERP?
Having a hard time not doing compulsions is very normal, and takes time. In order to not do a compulsion, you have to be willing to sit with and except the uncertainty. When you do this, the discomfort will fade over time, but you have to be willing to do it. Just continue to reduce compulsions overtime and he will feel better and better. They are a choice, it is uncomfortable, but allowing this discomfort will lead to recovery. If you’re listening to this meditation to get rid of the OCD, and it could be compulsive. Choose to do it any time it’s not for that reason.
Do u think u could help a little? My ocd revolves a lot around comparing myself to other people and the "right way" to do things. I really enjoy meditation and found great benefit from this however I've seen some people on social media say they hate meditation and say it doesn't work for them which makes me paranoid that I'm not allowed to like it or get benefit from it. Can I keep doing meditation even if other people don't find benefit?
I am always suspect about “life coaches” especially those that do videos from their bedrooms and kitchens. What are your credentials?! I just read a post from someone who said she is worse after watching this video. Everyone is an expert once they upload to social media. 😐
I am a certified Life Coach, but that’s not. where my expertise comes from. I learned ERP from 4 ERP Specialists, applied it to my own recovery and got 80% better. After I started helping others, learn ERP to get better, I learned two very important things that got me to the full recovery stage. Because of this, people get quicker results and more long lasting results from my coaching and programs. Whether you’re a therapist or a regular person, we’re all just re-teaching what we have learned. It’s about the knowledge and skills, not about a degree, although I do have a degree in psychology. The results of my clients have speak for themselves, but everyone has the right to make the choice thats’s best for them:)
Thank you so very much.

This helped me so much .. I cried so much because I feared my thoughts. So much.. but now after this i feel so relaxed
So glad!!
Could you please make a 30 minute version?
Love this, it helps to have something else to do with your thoughts and stops me from acting on compulsions and makes more comfortable when thoughts do come up.
TY Danielle
I agree, I use it all of the time to stay grounded.
I found this very helpful I have tried meditations and they never resonate with me This the way you said to focus on my body really helped Thank you for putting this together I’m thankful and will check out your other videos

You’re welcome! It should, but continued to disconnect from those thoughts.
I will disconnect from the thoughts, those thoughts. Thank you !
This was good. I got an ad 3/4 of the way though which wasn’t the best experience. Would be nice to put the ad at the end of the video.😊
I didn’t realize they were ads in the middle, which is definitely not ideal. I’ll try to turn these off!
Great! I would love more meditation videos! Also I was wondering if you could do a video on the healing process ( resistance, challenges and maybe a video of someone who has reached the recovery stage that can talk about all the hard work/ challenges ) :D
I have several videos on my page of recovery stories.
Thank you for this vidoe. I listen to it every day and it is so helpful.
You're welcome!
I just found this yesterday and I can’t thank you enough. I was worked up all day about something and you were the only thing that worked!! Amazing 😊
My anxiety got worse. When you said it should have alleviated, but mine had actually worsened, I then got even more distressed, as it made me think that this is not really ROCD and what I feel is real, which is my biggest fear. I’m really triggered and in tears 😭.
What makes your anxiety worse are the compulsions, things, like ruminating, analyzing, checking, hyperfocusing, and many many more. When you stop compulsions, discomfort lowers.
I enjoyed it, but there was an ad about 3/4's of the way through the meditation which really pulled me out of it.
So glad it helped you! I have this set up to NOT have ads, but apparently if you don't have a TH-cam or google account they put them on anyway:(
No worries, it wasn't the only distraction. My wife also came into the bedroom to ask me where I had put the soy sauce.
This was really helpful thank you!
You’re welcome!
It was amazing, thank you! The best meditation I've ever experienced
Glad you liked it!!

I just recorded two more meditations, check them out!
Love this! Would it be possible for you to do a meditation specifically for ROCD?
Yes, of course!
I can!
I like it and I am still kind of struggling with my OCD because I have some Cognitive Issues and it is triggering my OCD badly to have me arguing with my thoughts but this calmed me down though.
Glad you liked it! If you want to recovery, my programs will help you even more! www.MyOCDCaoch.com 😀

This was extremely helpful. Best meditation for ocd I've had.
Glad you enjoyed it! Listen every day to set in the habits and messages:)
This was really helpfull, thank you
You’re welcome!
Could you do a video for those with tics related to OCD?
Thank you ❤
Thanks for sharing this I really like it!

Can we email you personally?
Does this meditation helps for anxiety related to anxious attachment?
Yes, OCD is an anxiety disorder that just has more severe symptoms than anxiety or attachment issues.
Background noises are distracting, but otherwise pretty good.
Mam. I am also ocd person.. Past 2 years I will take medicines.. But still I m in ocd and anxious moretimes.. Please help me mam.. To overcome😢
Medication helps, but you need to learn ERP. You can find my recovery programs at www.MyOCDCoach.com.
great meditation, there is an advert 12 mins in, could you kindly please remove it. thank you :)

Sounds like reassurance seeking here - a compulsion.
@@MyOCDCoach not being given reassurance feels like torture 😭😭
Do you just coach ROCD?
No, I work with all OCD subsets.
Got interrupted by an ad
