Haha yes I actually thought you were going to say something else but then you caught me off guard :o. I'll need to try some of these tips, thanks for sharing!
Just found this channel and yes! So glad! I'm just going through a hard time, just got back from an exchange year of high school abroad, and it's so hard to face home again. I read really good things about meditation! Think it can help me a lot! Let's try! Why not? Thank you!
Yes, I totally recognize that. Have you seen this video: ua-cam.com/video/0FxYBwobHCU/v-deo.html. It's not necessarily meant for the people who lived/studied in South Africa; it's more a mindset how you work with having lived somewhere else (and then especially: coming back to your own country after that!). Meditation will help you find yourself and having peace with your current situation as well ♥ Hopefully!
I started doing yoga a year ago and fell in love with guided meditations a couple of months ago, now I'd like to learn to meditate without guidance.. I've noticed that I try to put it off mostly, not sure why.. insecurity I guess.. Also, it's really hard to sit up straight for a long time because of pain in my back.. I hope I'll be able to grow past that.. Anyways, thanks for doing this video, love this, and I love your style so much!!
Thanks for the love, Kim! Learning to meditate in silence is simply a matter of doing it. Don't be scared! Maybe first try it for 5 or 10 minutes and see how it goes. We all have to go through those struggles first, before it pays off. And about sitting up straight: you don't have to sit 'by yourself' - you can also simply sit on a chair, or maybe put a pillow behind your back? Whatever works for you of course! The most important thing is that you're able to relax and not be too hard on yourself :) Good luck!! Curious about your process ♥
I just started meditating and have the following thoughts: "What am I supposed to be thinking?"...."I should not be thinking...." ..."Should I be thinking?"....:) I love all your videos, you're very calm and have an earthy/grounded quality about you. Keep up the videos! You're awesome!
Thank you so much for these words, they mean the world! That's exactly 'who I am' actually - spiritual and pragmatic ;) I can totally imagine that you asked yourself these questions. Keep in mind that it's OK to think: try to zoom out and look at your thoughts though (and that's the hard part, I know). I takes time and practice, but you can do it once you persevere and keep practicing! That you're trying is already SO great!! ♥
I've had to share your evening habits video on FB. I've seen 3 videos so far, and for real for real, THANK YOU from a PTSD suffering soul determined to be freakin' me again after waaaaay too long!
Just found your channel! I have been meaning to begin meditating for a long time but have no idea where to begin. This is a big help and I can't wait to watch more videos!
This is such a great guide, thanks Zoe! I totally resonate with that first time meditating. 😂 I actually used to get more stressed when I meditated because I didn't think I was doing it "right." It wasn't until I let go of needing to do it a certain way that I actually embraced it and made it a daily habit. I wish I had had this video when I first started!
Thank you so much for that video! This is exactly what I need. It's weird, but I started meditate only 5 days ago, but I felt the effect of it immediately.
Thank you so much for this, for a while now I have been wanting to start meditation. However I had no idea how idea how to begin, this is realistic. Love how real you keep it! 🙏🏽
ABSOLUTELY LOVE!!! Had to all caps bc wow! All of your videos are amazing! I can't sit still to save my life and have been trying to figure out how to do exactly this! Thank you! Bless your beautiful soul!
This video is so helpful, thank you!! I love the way you explain things and I don't know why but there's something about the lighting that makes the video very relaxing and calming to watch.
I loved the way that you explain that. I lived in India for 6 months.. and i back to brazil in 2015. I had some time there for yoga, and for think about my body, my chakras as well..I did not know anything about this when I arrived, and actually i have to say to you is hard to start. I mean, for me. I am super anxious, and i cant stop to have a lot of thoughts. Sometimes bad thoughts.. But i mean, we are human and we have the both sides to think. So.. we have to choose the positive life. The positive mind. But i want to be more, i hope that this year i can do this more easily. Hahah xx Love and peace for you!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts Yasmin! Perhaps really try to meditate daily/consistently to look at the positive side more and more. For some of us it's a true struggle and challenge, and it also really depends on what you're going through in life, but I truly believe meditate will keep you strong throughout all of this! All the best to you ❤
I'm so glad that I found your channel! I absolutely will try this because of my problem to sleep. I also hope that it will help me to "turn off " my brain for a few minutes.
If you have these problems: absolutely try it! I personally believe that, if you persevere, you will absolutely notice a difference once. All the best to you! ♥
Hé Wild Child, Strange name you have. I'm probably 30 years older then you are, but I have the feeling you are more grown up as I am. I can learn so much listening to you... Anyway... I like your channel, and I share your love for meditation. I discovered TRE some time ago, and would like to share it with you. TRE stands for Tension Release Exercises. (Google on 'TRE psoas' and you will find lots of information) I'm from Holland just like you, and discovered TRE nearby Capetown, haha. For me it's a kind of meditation, coming home in the house where I live in: my own body. During the day I'm usually a quite rational. logical man, and sometimes not aware of what's going on in my life on a deeper level. I think this is pretty normal to everyone of us. TRE brings me back to another state of awareness, just like meditation does. And practicing TRE a few times a week, it makes me more stable, balanced in general. After doing a few simple fysical exerecises your body starts to 'shiver'. There is nothing strange about this, there are no incomprehensible theory behind it, and you can always stop the shivering if you don't feel comfortable with it, by simply stretching your legs. In the beginning this shivering felt strange, - and yes, it gave me exactly the same 'what the fuck'-moments you're talking about -but after a while I recognized it as releasing the stress I receive in everyday life. And releasing it in a very gentle and friendly way. Right now it is a part of my daily/weekly life, just like eating, sleeping and doing the laundry. It enriches my life, just like meditation does. TRE started with children having bad experiences in war-situations, and is being used now in all kinds of stressfull situations, like soldiers in wars, people with complex psychiatric problems, etc. Personnally I'm sure it has benefits for everyone of us. It's just a way to be friendly for yourself. I'm really curious what your experiences with TRE will be.
Hi Zoe. Just found your channel by accident but I'm glad I did. I've always wanted to try meditation especially now that I'm going through stress and changes in my life. Thank you for this information. I'm looking forward to using the apps you've suggested. Blessings to you!
OMG!! I'm back here to say thank you for sharing such good meditation apps! I'm into Headspace and I'm SURE it has changed my life since I starded it in January! Thanks again! Xoxo!
Wonderful tips and I'm SO glad you suggested some apps! I've been really really wanting to get into a steady routine and this I think will help. I love the "Wtf" honesty!! You're a gem!
Hahaha! That's my Dutch down-to-earth side I guess. Let's keep it real! Good luck with your meditation process! Lovely that you want to try it consistently. All the best!
I tried meditation once before but I had such a monkey-mind that I gave up almost immediately! I know I’m like a year late in watching this video but you’ve inspired me to give it a go again. I have anxiety and realise that continuous worry is exhausting, so I’m challenging myself to meditate for 10 minutes everyday for 3 weeks, and see if it makes a difference! Love this video, super calming :)
A.J Illustrations Love this! Thank you so much. You’re never too late, I would say. It is a true journey - it still is for me as well. Amazing that you’ll make a challenge out of it! Good luck the upcoming weeks - you can do it!
Hi Zoë, I was wondering if you have heard of the "miracle morning" because it matches your morning routine quite well. There were more creators talking so positively about it that I like to give it a shot.
Thanks for this video! I've been struggling with anxiety (although I don't feel like I have a particularly hard situation I'm going through), my heart rate has been racing lately and I notice I can't stay calm very well even though everything is fine. I just tried the stop breathe and think app and really liked it. I will check out the other suggestions as well. Thanks!
Ahh, be careful there. Meditation might actually really be helpful - I truly hope it will be helpful for you. Just want to point out though: I also meditated in a period in my life in which I was extremely busy with work and had palpitation of the heart. In the end, meditation helped staying calm throughout the day, but I simply needed to work less, which in the end did the trick of getting healthy again. I'm not an expert of course, but do try to find the cause of your anxiety and heart rate - quite literally: you have to listen to your heart! Take it easy. I hope meditation will help make you calmer, but also in giving you answers :) All the best!
great video! I would like to add, that you can also do meditation laying down. Best if it is on the floor, but you could do it in you bed before sleeping. Basicaly you lay on you back, your whole spine, including your neck, touches the floor. Your arms are by your side, palms upwards. You put your feet together, and then let them fall apart. Then your whole body can be relaxed, if you think about each bodypart, you realize to release tension there. I was so suprised, you can even relax your scalp, forehead, face, eyes...beacause there is even tension there! I think it is called dead-position if I mirror translate my language :D but also savasana is the pro name :) love your videos!
MJBpeace Thanks for the feedback! You might be right, but in general people have an association with sleeping when they're laying down. I think, therefore, that for beginners it's handier to start in an "alert" position :) But whatever suits the persons needs of course :)
Professional Wild Child For me this is how I started it, I went to a yoga studio, and after each class, we had a guided meditation in this position. But the teacher left the room and we could stay in meditation for awhile. It was increadible! But true, after the yoga practice, sometimes , here and there, you can hear a bit of snoring :D
this is awesome, I started to see your videos now and it's amazing how you passes to us a good vibe energy by tone of your voice. Im brazilian and can understand everything you said because its clear and really calm
I was thinking of finding a video with guidance to meditation cause i'm a bit messy when i try to meditate. I listen to music so i know that by doing that i wasn't quite there yet. Your video popped up exactly when i needed it and it was very precise and informative as well. You did a good job Zoe. Thank you :)
Hi, Zoe! Thank you so much for this video. For some time now I'm trying to meditate but there is always that feeling that I'm waisting my time. Listening to this video, I've changed my views about it. I didn't know about your chanel, fins it by accident and I'm really enjoying it! Wish you all the best! Kisses from Belgrade! :* :*
Ahh, thank you so much. That's so great to hear! Hope you'll enjoy the process from now on then.. :) I've been to your wonderful city a few years ago! Much love from Amsterdam ♥
Professional Wild Child And I've been to your beautiful city a month ago and I'm officially in love with Amsterdam...and with all your country in general. :D I'll be back, that's for sure! :) If you come to Belgrade some day again, it would be my pleasure to host you or show you around. :)
While I was watching your other videos, I thought to myself - why haven't I still tried meditation? And then this video came up. It is a great tutorial for noobs like me. And you're very cute! :) Thank you!
It relaxes me so much listening to you! Im defenetely im going to try this hope it helps me with my anxiety and depression. I heard meditation its really good for that
Thank you so much for this video! It definitely gave me a more clear vision of meditation, and trust me I've watched so many video about it I cannot even count! Again thank you for being yourself and so clear about the topic! You gave me a boost to start even though I would like to ask you if you had moments where you've been lonely In your life (living alone, experience of work abroad, etc). I have been through this and I am still a bit afraid of complete silence around me, I'm still a bit affected but I really feel like starting meditating.
Hi Angela! Yes, I do a lot of things alone actually; for instance, I love to travel by myself as well. Being lonely is something else, though. I've never had true, long, moments of loneliness, because I'm very happy with 'being with myself' often. But of course, like every human being, I have ups and downs as well and I have had it sometimes. I think therefore, that meditation will truly help you with accepting silence and being alone. Meditation simply can't have a negative effect, so it's a matter of practicing (and keep practicing) until you notice the benefits. Like I said in the video: you do need some persistence and patience with this, but I'm sure you will notice some results if you do it consistently for a few weeks already. I'm happy it was clear for you and hopes this answer helps a bit! You won't know the difference if you don't try it. All it needs is facing your fears and be courageous (and that sounds easier than it is, I know): but it sounds like your intrinsic motivation is already quite far in really wanting to try it once. I think accepting the silence will help you with accepting yourself and that want happened to you as well. All the best to you! Lots of love, Zoë ♥
Hi, Zoe. Thanks for the wonderful video!. I tried to medicate once, and I was, like, thinking 'what the f' all the time, so I just gave up. Your video, however, has changed my view. I started to take baby steps and the breathing tip turned out to be really helpful. Thanks again.
Thank you so much for your kind words & love! ♥ I love to 'normalize' the meditation practice, so I also love to share the knowledge that I've gained the last couple of years in this way. All the best to you!
This video helped me so much in my learning process about meditation and I really recongnized that 'what the fack' moment hahaha. And I am so curious, where did you get that beautiful necklace?
Haha, good to hear! Very normal! We're all human beings ;) The necklace is from Soul Design. I also put it in my Dec Favorites! :) ua-cam.com/video/qTRZJbx__cY/v-deo.html Much love! ♥
Gee, just listening to you calms me down. You seem like a very cool and balanced person. I hope meditating will help me chill the fc*k down too, I am a total angerball
Personally I prefer to do it in the mornings, it really feels like a fresh start and my mind is completely 'clean' because of it. Sometimes, after a hectic or stressful day, I like to do it before going to bed as well.
Hi! I wanna start this because I'm a reincarnated soul from RMS Titanic deceased soul and I'm trying to figure out my past live but with voice meditation videos makes me frustrated lol could this also help me with this situation? Or no!?
That's the thing with meditation (at least for me): when I'm having problems or stress, I can 'let it go' way easier because of meditation (instead of focusing on it). This is because I look at the problem/issue as a separate thought; the thought is not 'who I am'. If you practice meditation more and more, you'll get the hang of this matter and it's easier to handle with problems/stress throughout life - in my experience.
U make me try it, Im gonna see if I can follow the routine for 3weeks. Might be a problem with 4months baby but I have to try. I feel so drained and depressed at home lately. Maybe that will make me more energetic. F*ck it! :D (unfortunately can't use it when my baby cries :P) thanks for that video :)
Haha, I can imagine! How brave of you to at least acknowledge this. I can imagine it's a challenge when you have a newborn. Let me know how it turns out! I hope it helps with how you feel. Maybe always do a little meditation while your baby is sleeping? Don't fall asleep yourself right away as well ;) You can do that after - lol.
the "what the f***" moment! 😂
thanks for helping us learn how to
take a second to listen to ourselves.
by brie Haha! Right! Let's try to keep it real ;)
Professional Wild Child agreed! ;)
Haha yes I actually thought you were going to say something else but then you caught me off guard :o. I'll need to try some of these tips, thanks for sharing!
I'm going to try Stop, Breathe, & Think. I can make time for 10 minutes when I wake up, before I do my yoga. Thanks!
Ah, awesome! I hope you will like it! ♥
I ❤️ guided meditations! Thank you for sharing your valuable knowledge!
Thanks for the love Zoe!
I'm definitely going to start this ..lovely way to start a new year! Thanks Zoe x
Absolutely! Good luck with the process
Your voice is really relaxed. Congratulations! Hope I can manage to meditate as well :)
Thank you! All the best to you Mariana ❤
I discovered you yesterday and I truly like listening to you! I started working as 'digital nomad' lately.
Thank you for your love! ♥
Just found this channel and yes! So glad! I'm just going through a hard time, just got back from an exchange year of high school abroad, and it's so hard to face home again. I read really good things about meditation! Think it can help me a lot! Let's try! Why not? Thank you!
Yes, I totally recognize that. Have you seen this video: ua-cam.com/video/0FxYBwobHCU/v-deo.html. It's not necessarily meant for the people who lived/studied in South Africa; it's more a mindset how you work with having lived somewhere else (and then especially: coming back to your own country after that!). Meditation will help you find yourself and having peace with your current situation as well ♥ Hopefully!
Really love the fact that you are trying to make meditation as something normal for everybody. So nice video :)
Thank you so much!

Your tips are so helpful! Love this video. Could you do a "what's on my phone" video? I would really love to see the apps you're into and stuff.
Good one! I'll put it on the list ;). I sometimes also share a favorite app in my 'favorites of the month' videos! :)
Wonderful tips and I'm SO glad you suggested some apps! I've been really really wanting to get into a steady routine and this I think will help. I love the "Wtf" honesty!! You're a gem!

I was thinking of finding a video with guidance to meditation cause i'm a bit messy when i try to meditate. I listen to music so i know that by doing that i wasn't quite there yet.
Your video popped up exactly when i needed it and it was very precise and informative as well. You did a good job Zoe. Thank you :)
Thank you so much Maria!! That's so great to hear and means the world! ♥

Thank you for your sweet support Vicky! ♥
Hi, Zoe! Thank you so much for this video. For some time now I'm trying to meditate but there is always that feeling that I'm waisting my time. Listening to this video, I've changed my views about it. I didn't know about your chanel, fins it by accident and I'm really enjoying it! Wish you all the best! Kisses from Belgrade! :* :*
Ahh, thank you so much. That's so great to hear! Hope you'll enjoy the process from now on then.. :)
I've been to your wonderful city a few years ago! Much love from Amsterdam ♥
Professional Wild Child And I've been to your beautiful city a month ago and I'm officially in love with Amsterdam...and with all your country in general. :D I'll be back, that's for sure! :) If you come to Belgrade some day again, it would be my pleasure to host you or show you around. :)
While I was watching your other videos, I thought to myself - why haven't I still tried meditation? And then this video came up. It is a great tutorial for noobs like me. And you're very cute! :) Thank you!
Ana Stasia Haha, thank you so much for the love! It's supposed to be for noobs ;) 😂 So that's good!

lovely voice
It relaxes me so much listening to you! Im defenetely im going to try this hope it helps me with my anxiety and depression. I heard meditation its really good for that
Yes, I heard so too! I truly hope it will help you ♥ All the best on your journey!
Thank you so much for this video! It definitely gave me a more clear vision of meditation, and trust me I've watched so many video about it I cannot even count! Again thank you for being yourself and so clear about the topic! You gave me a boost to start even though I would like to ask you if you had moments where you've been lonely In your life (living alone, experience of work abroad, etc). I have been through this and I am still a bit afraid of complete silence around me, I'm still a bit affected but I really feel like starting meditating.
Hi Angela!
Yes, I do a lot of things alone actually; for instance, I love to travel by myself as well. Being lonely is something else, though. I've never had true, long, moments of loneliness, because I'm very happy with 'being with myself' often. But of course, like every human being, I have ups and downs as well and I have had it sometimes. I think therefore, that meditation will truly help you with accepting silence and being alone. Meditation simply can't have a negative effect, so it's a matter of practicing (and keep practicing) until you notice the benefits. Like I said in the video: you do need some persistence and patience with this, but I'm sure you will notice some results if you do it consistently for a few weeks already.
I'm happy it was clear for you and hopes this answer helps a bit! You won't know the difference if you don't try it. All it needs is facing your fears and be courageous (and that sounds easier than it is, I know): but it sounds like your intrinsic motivation is already quite far in really wanting to try it once. I think accepting the silence will help you with accepting yourself and that want happened to you as well. All the best to you! Lots of love, Zoë ♥
Professional Wild Child thank you very very much :) best for you as well I will keep following you :) baci Angela 💓
Love your videos! You are so lovely!
Thanks darling! Thank you for the love & support!
Hi, Zoe. Thanks for the wonderful video!. I tried to medicate once, and I was, like, thinking 'what the f' all the time, so I just gave up. Your video, however, has changed my view. I started to take baby steps and the breathing tip turned out to be really helpful. Thanks again.
That is great to hear. Thank you so much for sharing! ♥ Keep it up! All the best to you!
Great video! I just find you by accident and it was for sure a fantastic coincidence. Thanks for taking your time to do this videos! Greets from Peru.
Thank you so much for your kind words & love! ♥
I love to 'normalize' the meditation practice, so I also love to share the knowledge that I've gained the last couple of years in this way. All the best to you!
I would loooove to visit your country one day by the way!! Wow! Awesome to connect like this.
if you come to Peru, let me know! I live in Lima and can show you around :) xoxo

Hi Beautiful :) amazing job with this video! I love to listen to you
Please checkout Alan Watts (philosopher) and some of his speeches. Great video! Nice guide 👍
Kambiz Nazir yes, LOVE him!
Leuk!!
Whenever i do meditation and there is 'wtf' moment and I gave up. THx for the tips. I tried tons of times and failed but not anymore
Thank you for that! All the best to you ♥
Also try these nice reads ..... Practical Meditation and The way and goal of Rajyoga... these are from Brahma Kumaris (omshantistore).
all I could think was "what the fuck" lmao
Welcome to meditation step #1! ;) It's OKAY!
Hi! Do you think is better to do it in the morning or before to go to the bed?
Thank you for your videos!
Personally I prefer to do it in the mornings, it really feels like a fresh start and my mind is completely 'clean' because of it. Sometimes, after a hectic or stressful day, I like to do it before going to bed as well.
Thank you🌸
Hi! I wanna start this because I'm a reincarnated soul from RMS Titanic deceased soul and I'm trying to figure out my past live but with voice meditation videos makes me frustrated lol could this also help me with this situation? Or no!?
I'm wondering, if you are having lots of problems, won't you focus on it and get stressed when you meditate?
That's the thing with meditation (at least for me): when I'm having problems or stress, I can 'let it go' way easier because of meditation (instead of focusing on it). This is because I look at the problem/issue as a separate thought; the thought is not 'who I am'. If you practice meditation more and more, you'll get the hang of this matter and it's easier to handle with problems/stress throughout life - in my experience.
I see what you mean but I think I don't know how to do it yet, I will keep on practicing, thank you for your answer.
U make me try it, Im gonna see if I can follow the routine for 3weeks. Might be a problem with 4months baby but I have to try. I feel so drained and depressed at home lately. Maybe that will make me more energetic.
F*ck it! :D (unfortunately can't use it when my baby cries :P)
thanks for that video :)
Haha, I can imagine! How brave of you to at least acknowledge this. I can imagine it's a challenge when you have a newborn. Let me know how it turns out! I hope it helps with how you feel. Maybe always do a little meditation while your baby is sleeping? Don't fall asleep yourself right away as well ;) You can do that after - lol.
Love the video! I listen to guided meditation sessions on youtube by Michael Sealey. I highly reccomend it :).
Thanks for the recommendation! ♥
it would be nice if you put subtitles on your videos :D
