So I fell asleep listening to this guided meditation. It really puts in perspective how many people like me are suffering. It has 20 million views. That means 20 million people with ocd,anxiety, and depression. I hope everyone who comes across this video to have a happy and healthy year.
hey thank you i like your comment. Everybody should be happy.
This helped me tremendously
I listen to this every night (for three years now), and I expect so do others, so that number wouldn't be quite right. But more people should definitely discover this wonderful man! He has helped me so much. If I meet anyone who suffers anxiety or depression I always recommend this video particularly.
🤍
oh i came here with adhd O-O
proud of any person who is trying to make a change for themselves knowing how hard it could be at times.
bless your souls everyone.
Same back to you! 🤗🤙🏻
❤️❤️❤️
ditto
❤❤❤
Aw this comment brought tears out of me. Be proud of yourself too, and thanks for realizing some of us needed to hear that.
This video taught me the only technique that worked for my overthinking, anxiety and staying present . Every time a thought comes to my head. I just say, Don’t evaluate . And immediately I stop thinking and become present. It’s life changing. Please try it.
How often did you do it for, please?
@@ScurvyRascal i do similar thing. It takes practice. It's about recognising that those evaluations you are doing are not even real. It's all made up stories your mind is creating and you engaging with the mind. Recognising when it's happening is key. Then you can come back to the present and realise where you are and that its ok.
@@Jeffery-Vanity-Blofield thank you! I'll try it once a week and see how it goes 😊
These videos have helped me to do that lately :)
I will.
For anyone out there who struggles with their own self. You are not alone. Thoughts are a powerful thing. They can cripple or they can build. By being here listening to this you are on the right track. Better to do something to help than sit there and let your problems play on your mind. I love you all x
I hope you're doing well friend. Love you too.
I dont even know u but thank u for that

Especially feelings which comes with insecurities and leads to overthinking

This comment along with many others made me tear up. honestly thank you.
I love how wholesome this comment section is and everyone's just so kind hearted.
Been struggling with depression and anxiety for the past 3 years and now OCD has been kicking in...intrusive thoughts that are not at all in my control...its like my brain is fighting itself.
I just want to feel normal.
Suffering is a very good teacher, you develop compassion and better understanding of yourself and people around you.
Be well.
Hugs❤️❤️❤️
It’s possible. Believe me, it’s possible. Keep going, you’ll make it.

i would love to see more people like this
I’ve had so much happen to my life, I have anxiety to the point where I feel like I’m going to die. Sadly I’m only 20, this has helped me so much, I really need an awakening. God bless you
Happy you are feeling better. God bless you
Therapy has helped me enormously. Just getting your thoughts out in front of you to sort and look at. I'm a vet with PTSD. I can relate to what you're saying. Please know that the effort it takes to heal is worth it, but it's real and can be done. I hope you find peace. God Bless.
Take care 😊
I’m almost 30 and i’ve been through A LOT!!!!! I could write a book about my life. We got this ♥️

This video has become a regular part of my life since I discovered it last year. I went through a phase where I listened to it every single night for months straight. I have severe OCD and obsessive thoughts and whenever I have an outburst of bad thoughts I immediately come to this meditation and it brings my mind to peace. Peace I haven’t felt in years no matter how much therapy I’ve gone through.
If you have awful obsessive thoughts just know you are not alone. I know the urge that comes with those thoughts. Don’t give in to the urgency. You and your thoughts are separate- observe from afar do not get tangled up inside of them.
You are NOT alone. Peace to you ❤️
Thank you. I need words like yours pretty bad right now. It helps ♥️
Aww a huge thank you to your lovely encouraging kind GENUINE words. I just woke up after not sleeping for like over 24 hours tossing and turning after wanting to get myself off a medicine called Seroqual which I have been on for years and they make you drowsy so I always had sleep now ahh nope so I put this on and thought nah its not working my thoughts are about to pop out of my head and I woke up and saw that it played the whole way until the end. I will keep it up as it helps you and many others I have read about. I'm sorry you have been down or still going through the horrible stuff I have been my whole life and I wish you all the very best. Thanks again. I really liked that Michael read yours and put a heart there..sorry I'm not use to the terminology of you tube words. He saw that you were geniuan as I did with beautiful encouraging words. Bless you
What a kind, wise person you are Sydney ❤
❤❤❤
@@kayabarbour6021 "whenever I have an outburst of bad thoughts I immediately come to this meditation" - sounds like the definition of Obsession (the O in OCD hah)
To anyone reading this you are AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL AND NEEDED, carry on & never give up because it will be better
right backatcha!!
Rosita MG THANK YOU
Big hugg to you.
Thanks...you too!😊
Thanks.. .. ditto
I'm always struggling with suicidal thoughts. Now I'm not. Enough said.
@Jabber War that's not really what he said at all though, and a lot of people respond better to that train of thought than you would think. I would much rather someone tell me how it really is than give me empty words of consolation.
I hope your doing okay since you posted last? Your life is worth it and you are loved I really hope your in a good place right now xx
you are loved, you deserve to live a happy life. Sending you love and support💕
Mark of CAIN God loves you

Why is it so hard to control the mind
You are so kind
Thank you so much is not easy 😢❤
I'll stay here, but I want to go to that other planet that I remember. I can't prove it, but I know we were all there, and there was no concept of money
to everyone battling anxiety and depression, keep fighting. it will get better. Just keep saying this too shall pass.
Thank you
You are right 🙌🏽
Thank you so much

I keep having panic attacks, I'm over thinking constantly in a bad way, I'm constantly scared and i absolutely have no clue what to do with my life next.. I really need to do these meditations.
CBD HELPS
I really hope you’re okay and better now, and just know that you’re not alone i can relate to what you said 100% and it feels good to know that im not alone and thats why i replied to your comment. You are loved, and you will get to where you want to be, I genuinely hope you are doing better❤️
Same! And I'm a 24 yr old boy afraid of this pandemic.
I'm so tired of feeling bad ...I overthink and cause very bad panic attacks that makes me feel like I'm dying ...I shake and feel like I'm going crazy ..i have some health issues so that dont help the situation ..I hope these meditation help...prayers needed!!!
World is full of suffering and also of people overcoming it - Hellen keller
The best suggestion I could give to anyone suffering with depression or addiction or anxiety or any other sense of dis-ease would be to go do something for someone else. No matter how small or how large. Help someone. Love unconditionally and pull yourself out of your head. It's easy to get swept up by our mental and emotional hangups. Just breathe. Trust. Love and know that no matter what the situation is at this moment in our lives that we are all going to be fine. We are limitless.
Thanks Kendal Wheeler 😊
Very well said!
I'd like to mention that as lovely as this suggestion. This habit can be detrimental. I would actively avoid dealing with my problems, by focusing on helping others. It became an addiction...in moderation this is good advice.
I agree I was in tears this morning and forced myself to go out... I met a woman in distress over a relationship, I calmed her by getting her to breathe and break the cycle of her thoughts, by emplying some of these techniques ... she just messaged to thank me ...Makes me feel so good to have helped
,,,,,*
I can’t stop overthinking and it makes me so very anxious. I’m sick of pills. The mental health team aren’t helpful at all. So I’m just starting to try these uploads. Hello to all
Hey, how are you doing so far?
Ibt • hi. I been well the week before. But Saturday, my mood just dropped. Reached a peak this afternoon and I was frantic. But I pulled it round in the end. Weary and tired now. But better than I was. Thank you for asking
RentVandH2O wow. I screen shot the comment. Very inspiring 🙌
Amanda Irvine I’m sorry about that, I have mood swings too and it’s very hard for me to control them sometimes so I know how you feel. Herbal tea helps when I get very frantic, I don’t know if you’ve tried it
Are you still on pills, that's my worse handicap, your advice is welcome 🙏
I want to be the person I used to be 😔
Jessica Ramirez I feel the same way 😔
Me too
The person you used to be never left you. That person has always been there
...patiently waiting for you to invite and welcome them back into your life.
You can be how you used to be because you are still you deep inside. You've not lost the other person, they are just behind some closed doors that need opening.
I feel the same. I know I am and still can be the old cheerful, bubbly and lovable person but I just need to eliminate my anxiety, depression, disassociation and mis-trust in the world and people. It's a big mountain to climb but I so want to get back to my former self I'm willing to work at it and keep positive x
💟💟
Thank you Michael. Two years ago my daughter passed away and the granddaughter that I raised from birth was taken away from me by a father that she had never met, at the age of three. Something inside me broke. I have panic attacks, anxiety and deep depression. Your meditations have been a great help to me. I fall asleep to them every night. Thank you, Michael, for the bit of peace that you have given me. Peace to you, Krista
Peace to you.
Hope things are well with you. Are you at least able to visit your granddaughter?
Oh my god 😔
I’ll be praying for you 😊
Sending love and hugs to you Krista, sorry to hear what you went through and are going through xx
i wanna be that old me , that little child who wasnt afraid from anything and motivated to do anuthing that child who wanted to conquer the world
Thanks
Yes
Me too
Yes you can that’s still me
Amen. Me too.
This helped me two years ago when I lost my daughter hopefully it helps me stop being mean to myself ...
sending love, Brenda ❤️

I wish you all peace and happiness, you all deserve it
So sweet :)
You too... many blessings
people like you deserve it more! Blessings.
Charlotte H And you deserve it just as much! Thank you, wish the same for you.
Thank you!! WE all deserve it :)
Being in the hospital with my 5 year old daughter while she fights cancer and everything else over the past 3 years has given me severe anxiety and panic attacks. I was so skeptical of meditation... but so glad I tried it. I only wish I had discovered this sooner. Thank you!
God bless you and your little diamond , I will pray for her X
Good luck to you, your family, and your daughter.
Lacey Lovejoy i hope your daughter is well and that you and your family have found happiness again.
I will pray for your daughter and you
I will also pray that ur daughter recovers x best of luck
I just want to say thank you, I live in Syria and we have had a bad earthquake 3 weeks ago and I haven't been able to sleep much since the quake .. last night I put this video on and just fell asleep so peacefully .. last night was the first night I was able to somewhat sleep through .. You have no idea how difficult it is to deal with such things
Thank you really, your voice calmed my soul
God bless you and all the people in Syria. I’m here for you many many miles away friend
I know it will take months or years for Syria to recover. Please be strong and keep meditating
I have been suffering from severe anxiety especially at night where when I try to sleep I have panic attacks...this is an awful way to have to live. But finding this video and his voice just relaxed me...made it where I could calm myself and sleep for once without fear and panic. Thank you for it's been an answered prayer for me! ♡
I often have really bad anxiety in the morning. It's horrible to feel so stressed and worried, so I feel for you. I'll pray for you.💗Ever listen to Joel Osteen? Search for his message on UA-cam "Peaceful on Purpose." It helped me😊💗. God bless!
Me too
Wonderful that you have been blessed with this video. Thanks for your comment!
🙏
I reccomend listening to Roy Keane
This really helps. My anxiety has been terrible recently. I realized today that the source of all my problems was my insecurities. I am in constant fear of physical danger and of rejection, which has taken a lot from my life. However, I'm just starting college now and becoming an adult, so I've decided that now is a great time to change. I've heard many good things about meditation and this exercise brought clarity to my thinking. I'll be coming back here again, I want to make meditating a habit.
+coughdropper im happpy for you:) i think its great path to take. if you like at some point to share ideas and experience on this, let me know and we could get in contact. g good luck:)
+coughdropper Wow......Thats me exactly...
Same here. I have been trying to stay positive but I can't.
+coughdropper hang in there !!! Ive head bad anxiety the past 6 months...on different things to help me,,but its a damn roller coaster ride. Been to therapy,,,and my therapist had suggested hypnosis. I need to see if my insurance will cover it. But for now, I'm trying this out.
I have anxiety because of childhood stuff that resurfaced a bit ago. I was over it for almost a year but now it's getting worse
I went in not expecting much, and i thought i'd only do about 10 minutes or so. Oh, if only i knew, hahah... I just finished the whole thing and i feel amazing. I was absolutely terrible before and i struggled to hold back from crying in the beginning, but now i feel as if a burden was taken off of my shoulders. I'm in peace. Thank you.
Superni Ue no
+Thalissa Carvalho look into faith for actual peace (;

**grabs popcorn**
The crying and loneliness... I completely relate.
I cry myself to sleep every night now... the pandemic, online school, my hormones, being a teen, not seeing my friends ect.. it’s all hitting really hard. I want all of this to end. 🙏😪💞
You have your whole life ahead of you...nothing lasts so if its bad now just know it will get better. Hang in there and it will. Best wishes to you
It will get better. Stay strong. It is hard at first I'm not going to lie. But never give up. Michael's uploads have really helped me stay grounded. Love and peace💝
Dear Lea, remember the moments you feel ok and repeat them in your mind... Michael Sealey's vids are so helpful.Fantastic you are here! Make a list of little things you are grateful for.. Love to you...
@@gerdafosterunlimited thank you much! I talked to my mom yesterday and I feel so much better!
@@lealemieux-dube4366 That so good you took action Lea!
Is anyone else listening to this in June 2020?
of course, every day I'm listening one or more of those meditations, and it helps me to come back in a better way and so I can find peace. Thank you so far Guys for your help.
For sure...at least once weekly!
I'm starting now
Right here with you all ❤️
Starting now. First time, I hope it benefits me.
I suffer from overthinking constantly thinking and over analysing in my head. This helps me alot

I have recently lost a baby at 20 weeks gestation and it led me to a nervous breakdown and post tramatic stress disorder/ severe anxiety. You are helping me every day Micheal I really appreciate you creating these videos. I will carry on with my recovery listening to your meditations 🙂
god bless you... and i hope you he gives you the strength...
I hope you're okay now.
Laura, I am so sorry to read about your loss. What a tragedy for you. I don't know if it helps, but you are in my prayers. I can only imagine the depth of this event. I hope you will continue to heal and find recovery and I hope knowing others are praying for you does help you. 💜💜💜 R
Very sorry for your loss. Sending you positive vibrations and hope you're feeling better
Laura Shepherd I too lost twins at 20 weeks because Dr did not know I had incompetent cervix. but with surgery and bedrest I went on to have three children. wishing you only the best.
When I was in this mediation I noticed something . I didn't judge my thoughts . I didn't judge me ! There was no me there was no lables everything was gray . No feeling . Only observation ! . I wish I can be like this all time . So powerful ❤️
This has changed my life completely and is hands down my favorite guided meditation. I have struggled with chronic nausea and anxiety, but this guided meditation has changed that completely. I once was so sick I couldn’t even keep down food. I was constantly anxious. Now when I feel sick, I put on this guided meditation and it completely relaxes my stomach and makes the nausea go away. No doctor has been able to figure out why I was so sick, and I think it was all about past traumas and current fear mindset. This meditation got me out of that loop of ruminating thoughts and healed me beyond what most doctors could do. Forever thankful for this!!!!!! I recommend it to everyone. 💜
Who else wants to go back in time and fix things you couldn’t?
;)
not me! because the person you are today is because of that! people that struggle more with life sort of have an advantage if you look at it the right way, because if we can overcome what we went through and look and what we can become then you can do wonders, its so easy to look at the bad we all do because it was a massive part of our lives, but look at the right way and see what you can gain from it? maybe its becoming even more empathetic towards people that struggle aswell and help people, that really helps. but the person you are today is amazing and the fact that we have all come to this video to express out feelings and thoughts is great, i hope anyone that is reading this can overcome what ever they are going thorugh BECAUSE YOU ARE WORTH IT!!! xxxxxx
me i am sorry Lord
Yup.
Everything happens for a reason, don't dwell on the past honey 🌷💓xx
To all the beautiful souls here. You ARE loved. You ARE special. You HAVE a purpose. Thank you for your BRAVERY. Let’s continue to shine our light! 🙏😌
This made me cry
Shane DeHart 👌👌 positivity
Hello from your 100th Like. 👍
How did you know I needed to hear such a beautiful comment. Anxiety and depression make you feel ashamed and worthless. Thanks for your kindness ❤❤❤
I've been using this meditation now for about the last 3 years. This meditation has changed my life and made my life better in every possible way. I'm recovering from drug and alcohol addiction and having this meditation to use every day has been huge part of my recovery
Congrats on recovery 💜 it’s difficult but it’s the best love you can give to yourself and you’re worthy of a beautiful and full life. Great idea to use meditations like this!
Well done hope your doing well
Well done ❤
9 months ago I had a very bad anxiety and panic attack when I fainted and broke 2 teeth my jaw and chin. Still missing teeth and since my jaw has moved I have a complete open bite therefore can’t really chew my food.this in turn made my GERD super bad..still suffering but trying not to loose hope.came across this video and it has helped me a bit to forget all that im dealing with .. whoever took our this time to read my comment is definitely an empath and I’m sending you lots of positive everything this universe has to give
You are all beautiful people. I enjoyed reading all of your comments, we all have so much in common, but we are unique in our own ways. We are all perfect.
BandeDeGogos exactly, we live on an imperfect world where everything and everyone on this planet are not perfect..🌿peace🌿
Jo Do b
...oh. .I love u ..with all my consciousness and humanity
“you are more than your thoughts. You are more than your reactions” this helped calm me down as I was building up to a panic attack. Works better than Xanax and I’ve listened to it so many times. Thank you!!
Lucky that your doctor gives you xanax
I have been listening to this since 3 weeks and am feeling so much better as when I wake up, my head is clear and not heavy to start the day! Thank you so much for this extraordinary help! 🙏🏽
This pandemic makes me sad. This made me calm and joyful again. I completely detached from it all.
crazy to think it’s been 7 months, only going to be more :/
I have been meditating for 4 months now & guys let me tell you that I definitely notice a difference from the way I feel to the things I do. Its crazy to think that I workout every other day at home on my own no excuses, I have more energy, I find myself being happy and really appreciating life, i love to learn, read, & nature! I am so proud of myself I can’t tell you guys how much change I have made in such little time! I still have my moments and I promise this has not been a walk in the park. I had to rearrange my WHOLE life in order to get here. So guys fight for your happiness search for things that will help you. Also build new good habits and remain consistent even when it gets hard. Remember you are loved and we’re here to help one another, we got this!
Just opened my eyes from this video, with headphones on. And my lord, This video is a GodSend for people with OCD anxiety and depression. Words can't explain how well this works
I have little anxiety issue..studying writing and music helps overcoming anxiety
I try to stay in the moment. At times there are so many thoughts bubbling up. Like a train going by observe and let them go. Peace and happiness to all
louis geer another great way that I found in another video is to imagine your thoughts as balloons and blow them away
This really worked, you're right! Grateful. Should listen this everyday
You'll notice over time that the anxiety when not listening will get better and the bad thoughts won't come as often. Just stick with it.
I am not one to write comments often, but here goes...
I was afraid to do this, to feel the sensations of my body because that is what has been causing me so much mental turmoil, grief, and worry. Accepting the feelings as they come and go. Visualizing my thoughts outside of themselves was very effective for me. It is like watching leaves fall on a stream, then seeing them gently float away downstream, letting them go. I have not felt this encouraged in a long time knowing that I am more than my thoughts. I think I have been damming up a river of life that is supposed to flow freely. This was wonderful experience. I feel better. Thank you.
+Jim Hawksworth I think your response is very well described here, Jim. Acceptance (of many feelings / issues, etc) is a powerful mental shift in and of itself. Knowing you are more than your thoughts is equally powerful. Glad you feel better. Peace.
I'm pretty anxious about it. I'm so tired. it's 2 am and I need to sleep. My thoughts are horrible sometimes
+Jim Hawksworth Beautifully written Jim. You should consider doing some professional writing if you are not doing so already.
In any event, your description helped me too even more again than the video, so *thanks* for taking the time to make your contribution.
Cheers :)
+Jim Hawksworth thank you This was wonderful. Though I am a longtime meditater, this was still a great reminder of the eternal peace we can all create.
Jim Hawksworth I felt the same way! It's awesome what meditation and mindfulness can do. 😀
Listening in Dec 2020.. trying to grow, change my ways, and heal. The goal is to calm the overthinking, let go of the obsessions, and releasing the depression and anxiety. 🦋💜
Dude doing the same thing, I've been battling now for 28 years . It does get better over time but I do get long sustained bouts of anxiety every year . My mission now is to release myself from this permanently. Good luck 👍🙏
Hey how did it go? Is it working ?
@@camdecorations9779 I hope it goes well for you bro, stay strong keep practicing meditation and goodluck look inside yourself..
Your anxiety got any better?
@@camdecorations9779 how have you been?
I have major health anxiety. Right now I am dealing with an actual health problem rather than one I’ve just made up out of paranoia. It’s scary....in my mind, making an appointment with a doctor is synonymous with signing my will, as I seem to be convinced that I have a fatal illness. As unrealistic as it may be, it’s hard to get out of this vicious and hurtful mindset. This video helps a lot. Thank you 🙏
Dj Boo I feel you pain. How are you now?
@@aarondallas3599 there’s still a lot of ambiguity in what’s going on but the good news is it isn’t life threatening so that’s out my mind at more ease. It’s still so easy for my mind to blow it out of proportion but I have to keep reminding myself to trust the medical professionals.
I have the same issues, one minute I'm thinking I'm having a heart attach, then a blood clot, then cancer or internal bleeding or an infection. My physical symptoms I experience are literally debilitating. Stay strong my friend remember you are more than anxiety!! We are built to do hard things. Use facts over fear.
@@darinward71 keep meditating don't miss a day. If you have a thought of heart attack change it to having a good hearty laugh, internal bleeding, change it to you being cleaned on the inside with drinking water, Keep doing it and challenging those thoughts. I have been there done that read the t-shirt you name it. Within a month of doing these things daily it WILL change.

I really recommend for anyone who has anxiety to listen to this. I recently relapsed after 69 days sober and I've been feeling terrible anxiety after being sober again for the past two days. Today I felt like I had no one to talk to and I was just crying and crying all day I couldn't even think. But this really really helped. Thank you.
One day at a time!!!everything will be fine nobody is perfect😘
Patrick Barela i completely empathise w ur position... sustaining sobriety and trying to piece my material life together, as well as return to the peaceful state my mind used to be... the triple threat is still always impermanent. Hope u find inner peace
Omg me 2 !!!!!! Exactly the same situation
Try Wayne Dyer's book change your thoughts change your life based on the Chinese Tao..reading the Tao (pronounced Dao) has helped many people with addiction..there's a 9 hrs audio book on UA-cam
My friend sent me this video about 6 years ago when I was depressed. I spent all day crying or laying in bed staring at nothing, wishing I didnt exist anymore. This video helped me relax during that dark time in my life and it helped me sleep.
You still come out with new videos and thank you for continuing to do so.
I always come back to this one because of how impactful it was for me and I always recommend this to others as well.
To whoever is reading this. Meditation is an exercise in which through the act of watching your breath it grounds you to this very moment. While in the moment you can watch where your mind goes and then let those thoughts go. With meditation you can realize the tendencies and thought patterns your mind takes you to. These tendencies have been learned and can be unlearned. I wish the best for all of you.
This is probably the best description of meditation I have ever read!! 👌🏻🤗
ashotofmercury thank you 🙏🏼 Namaste
@@martinguillen4119 what do you mean? didn't understand
In my personal case overanalyzing situations is a survival mechanism because I live in a hostile environment with hostile people, and I feel I need to prepare for the blows they will land on me. Granted, I can never fully anticipate exactly how it's gonna go, but from my experience it's much harder to take the proverbial kick to the stomach if I'm not expecting it. So from time to time I really need these kinds of videos to relax and hopefully regenerate because living like this is extremely mentally and emotionally draining and takes a heavy toll on my physical health. These videos save lives, I'm sure of it.
Same here. My past was filled with hostile and negative people always ready to attack/provoke. So many unhealthy habits have come out of that state.
I am 68, so not starting college. But anxiety still remains dying, getting sick, husband dying, getting hurt, shot, etc. So, learn how to manage it now. Since starting meditation, I've been doing much better.
So glad to hear that :) It really is incredibly helping and clarifying.
Same here
I am 16 turning 17 in 2 weeks and i am now realizing i need to overcome my social phobia so hopefully this helps out. I really wish I was as I am when it comes down to just typing on the computer... I feel like a really sociable person behind a computer but not in real life. Its hard for me to cope with anymore. My social anxiety is as bad as even when I simply listen to music in a classroom, I care what others think of my taste in music. I need to overcome this desperately...
+Lions You're not alone. I wouldn't say I have social phobia, but I definitely have a way to go in being a more sociable person. Good luck with everything, hopefully we both find some relief.
Yung Ric yeah me neither i just get really quiet in school sometimes and even at parties.
I've been going through depression, insomnia and anxiety for the past 10 years. This channel saved me 5 years ago.
You can do it friend 💪❤️☮️
ROBERTTTT
Thank you Robert ❤️
ROBERT!!
Thanks buddy
i hope u all are doing good
last night i was on the verge of another anxiety fueled breakdown, having my own thoughts eat me alive. then i listened to this and meditated for the first time and wow did i feel so much better after. i was able to get a good nights sleep instead of tossing and turning and drowning in my own thoughts. thankyou!!!!
Brianna Liz Negron stay strong, your courage is what keeps you going ❤️
This track saved my life. I was nearly homeless because of nerve chaos. This one spacifically helps. Thanks.
Travis Jones y
I ended up homeless because of anxiety, depression and stress I didn't know what was going on with me I going thru it right now 😔 I actually have a phone because the payment isn't due yet eventually... It's hard dealing with this but I have faith n God will help me thru
@@efrainpineda8970 yes. He will. And I know this because you BELIEVE and that is all we really need.
❤️❤️❤️

After the first time I listened to this it helped. After the 10th or so time it really helped. After that I was already exploring other methods of bringing peace into my life. Methods like meditation, yoga, simple walks or excercise, eating healthier, etc. It is a process but it all starts with simply breathing and giving yourself deep permission to relax. It all gets easier from there. Fellow anxiety strugglers please do not give up. Figure out a program that works for you and stick with it. Do something peaceful everyday and you will see change.
The constant struggle of having OCD telling yourself that you're okay and it's just in your head. It's not you it's your OCD. but then not being able to believe yourself.
"it's in your head"
It literally is. Your brain is wired in a way in which you have uncontrollable crippling distressing thoughts. It can be a debilitating disorder. Don't downplay how much mental strength goes towards surviving day by day.
Do you have a hobby that you can focus on or some goal to get out of your head?
Happenes to me every time
I am facing OCD ,please give solution
*honest review:* since beginning of 2017 i have been in a sad place. I overthink a lot & find it soo hard to let go of my chaotic thoughts which always turn into abruptive emotions like self-doubt & hatred towards myself. Until recent, I decided I need a better mindset, a clearer more healthier one. & I came across this & have been listening to this particular vid/audio for few days now & am really feeling like my train of thought is improving. I seriously feel like most of my unhealthy thoughts are fading. Am not sure if that is just me putting too much faith into this & being naive, but I do feel like this is actually healing me emotionally & spiritually
Hopefully it still works for you
cass, im happy to know that theres another girl my age out there who feels this way. i dont have answers, but i want to let you know your not alone 🌼
Feeling like meditation/mindfulness is helpful is not in any way naive.... It works for you if you feel it does.... It has some great powers, by merely helping you stand still in life, for a moment, and detach yourself from the chaos of life and the chaos of your thoughts.
Listening to this particular vid and ' Journey to become your ideal self' have made vast improvements in my state of mind. I went away for two weeks with no internet where I was staying, so no vids, and my anxiety and depression came crashing back. I'm back to it again every night. They defo do work.
@@sctrh2 hi, would you mind giving me the link to journey to become your ideal self? Thanks
All life is precious. Including the life of the person reading this.
Thank you for your wisdom
Hell yeah! All life. Including the animals😊🌱
Thank you
I listen to this every night and get something new from it every time. Best thing I've ever found
Anxiety is the worst, dont wish it on my worst enemy!!!
It's somewhat a slight relief to see that im not the only one to feel like this at times.
It's quite refreshing knowing other people use this, all in the same boat people x
I wanna cry from relief every time I listen to this whole guided meditation.
I feel you on that. After my first meditation I DID cry from relief. It made me realize how long I had been wound up. Possibly for years. But I'm getting better now:)
@@madelinemccrory699 hi u r getting better by dis mediate..??
@@shamikhan7973 sure am! My panic attacks seem more controllable now so I'm just going day by day
@@madelinemccrory699 ok dats gud I wish and pray dat get more relief thank a lot
I did. It was an eye opening exercise of an awareness! Love and light. I suffer from PTSD, depression, anxiety and OCD This helps quiet the mind.
Online classes brought me here , that i never thought one day in my life i will feel this way and be this overthinking and stressed i miss those days when i was normal and happy :,(
You are normal, life is difficult to navigate 😊
This was one of the most important meditations I’ve ever done. Thoughts are like comets racing through our minds. They aren’t real. They aren’t who you are. Thank you for showing me this.
I’m really really struggling at the moment hope your doing well
Since my daughter fell asleep, I decided to meditate because lately my mind has been all over the place. I laid down on my living room floor, lit some relaxing candles and played the video. I felt so relaxed that I fell asleep however it was the sort of sleep where you can hear things around you and I remember listening to the mediation. I got up and I felt amazing. I looked in the mirror and smiled. I literally feel like the millions of things I had in my mind are gone. I feel so refreshed.
Nia's Mama I felt the same - it was great x
Michael I have struggled with trying to meditate for 16 years. Thought I had to do it a certain way, thank you for guiding me to a place where I can deal with my physical and emotional pain without dumping a bunch of chemicals into my already compromised liver.
+Gail Goelz You're welcome. And peace to your liver!
first time. I
I wanna stop battling with every negative thought I have , I drown in them. I dont understand why, I just need help to stop them.
H Bertagnole you are not alone.. we got this and we will get through it. Whether it be working out or eating healthier those things help a lot. Keeping busy and being in the moment. Hope it gets better for ya much love!
Watch asmr videos they help a lot
My inner anxiety had me start this over because I felt a cold draft while I was doing it and got scared. I will not let fear rule my life or prevent me from experiencing anything. I will experience all life has to offer. I am safe to start over and it is okay to start over. I love you Alex. Take your time and try again.
I was feeling horrible last night and out of sheer desperation decided to listen to some meditation and found this. It cleared all of the deeply distressing thoughts out of my head, I blanked out completely before it ended then woke at the end and immediately went to bed and had a good night's sleep for the first time in a while. Thank you!

To the people who struggle with Anxiety for years and years. Your time will come where it all goes away. Be nice to people, take care of yourself (the best you can) and never give up. I struggled with severe anxiety for 6 years, constantly a mess and making it through day by day. I keep my head focused to the best of my abilities, helped others and most importantly never gave up on those really hard days. I am now living with almost no anxiety… I don’t say this to brag friends, just to let you all know it’s possible to feel great again!
How did you do it
dear mr michael sealey,
i had more then 6 year trouble sleeping, I started to have real physical problems of the fatique.
Thanks to this meditation I have nights with 4-5 hours off deep sleep, this is my wish for some long time now. Thank you a million to share your voice and knowlegde with us. I will try the other meditations when I feel more healed....
+Antoinella van rensen Great news to read of your positive sleep results, Antoinella. May you easily continue to heal and sleep soundly and deeply every evening. Peace.
+Michael Sealey - Is not sleeping properly an actual problem? I neddd help.
I had a therapist who did these types of exercises with me to heal from childhood trauma. It was more helpful than any other therapy I’ve had. Just helping me reconnect to the feelings of my body again instead of being so lost in all of the worries in my head.
Last time I played this was April 9, 2020
Now it is June 9, 2021 00:11 AM.
It's all going to be fine. We're all going be fine.
If I don't get my act together, I will never be loved by anyone again. I chase everyone away with anxiety. I'm trying to breath through love minus attachment. This truely helps. Thank-you. First time listening.
you are as loveable now as you ever were, and ever will be, try not to resist and hate your anxiety so much, it’s just your brain trying it’s best with the tools that it has ❤️
I had some problems with keeping my eyes shut through this and grabbed the first peace of cloth I had at hand to cover my eyes with. Those happened to be my shorts that were lying on the edge of my couch (fresh out of the dryer, not dirty FYI) and I didn't think anything of it at the time, I just needed them to help me concentrate .
Then about 15 minutes later I started to laugh uncontrollably to the fact that here I am, spread like a starfish on my couch, breathing deeply with headphones on and a pair of shorts pulled halfway over my face.
Thank god none of my neighbors have a direct line of sight to my living room...
I stumbled across this video being at breaking point at this moment in my life due to chronic anxiety and insomnia. I wish to thank you as you have saved my life from spiraling so out of control. I'm not there yet, but with your helpful videos I am slowly recovering. Thank you so very much, light and blessings to you. Xx
Did it get better for you? If so, how?
This comment section has me in tears, such a stark difference from the rest of the internet. You can really tell Michael's work is healing just by the comment sections alone. Thank you!!!
My anxiety has been so terrible lately I can’t sit still at my desk, I cry over everything, I’m constantly nauseous To the point I can’t eat and live off of tums and stomach medications. This gave me the first sense of relaxation I’ve had in ages. The heaviness in my stomach slowly but surly started to dissolve and after the meditation I feel confident to try and conquer my anxiety. I had lost all hope I wanted to crawl out of my skin THANK YOU
I understand you as I’m struggling with the exact same thing. I feel your pain. I’m crying right now. I’m rooting for us.
@@narutowebby me too. Everyone in the comment section
This is exactly how I’m feeling put into words, thank you we will get through this storm
I hope everyone is doing a bit better 🖤
I'm also in too much stress and pain to eat, it is so hard. Two years later I hope you found peace, I hope all of us do.
Anxiety started to destroy my life, I felt so scared. I'm now recovering from it and using this really helps me to relax and I'm starting to be a dad again to my kids.
:) so proud and happy for you
Your kids are lucky to have a dad like you, who cares enough to do his best for them.
Stay strong 💪 to be a good dad
The internet could be for good or bad. It depends on you. This is good. Thank you for this wonderful channel. Peace and love everyone 🤗
Hey Angela, this message really clicked with me. Thankyou, I hope you are doing well and if not - how about giving this another listen ;)
This helped a great deal. The last few days I have had problems with shallow breaths and more rapid. It felt like having too much coffee but I did not have any today. So, anxiety showing itself again. I believe that meditation helps a great deal and I have become better at it. I need to train my mind to be more positive and less thinking of the worst case scenario. All the best to everyone on here having your own issues. It will pass...
I know. It's so frustrating when your mind continually wants to cook up the worst possible scenario about some situation in the future. Most likely it won't happen and if it does, thinking about it won't help....it just robs you of the happiness you could have today because your mind is so wrapped up in future events that haven't happened.... so I know just what you mean. Praying for you!💗
Thinking about the fact that this has 25 million views. It's easy to feel as though we are alone in our mental struggles, but this comment section and reading through it is making me feel more hopeful. I hope everyone who's ever needed to listen to this has a very happy life.
It is such a blessing to find something to just make my mind stop. It is so exhausting to never be able to stop thinking, even when I sleep, but this has worked. Thank you.

Amen
These are the gems of the Internet they've helped me grow so much since August
I thought you said germs XD
How long did it took to see the effect?
+Munzarin R it really depends it only helps you as much as you consciously help yourself, but the more you focus on your physical surroundings you will start to notice there's a life outside of your thoughts and being in your head!
+Munzarin R For me, I listened to 10 minute guided meditations every day and noticed the results within a week. However, the more you do these meditations the better you will feel in the long term.
@lynz @lauren
thanks soo much for your kind feedback. I am suffering alot from Intrusive thoughts and it is ruining my life. I can't do anything properly throughout the day. I hope that this meditation will work on me. :)
I'm desperately grabbing at anything to give me some comfort, maybe a little peace.
I feel the same way😔😔😔
I also feel the same way 🙁
If you read this, doesn't matter where you are right now on this planet, I wish you a wonderful night and a happy peaceful life where all your dreams become true. 🙌❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Everyone, I wish you all the best! Thanks for existing in this strange world! Together we can overcome anything.
Two days into this session and I felt so "NORMAL" again I actually realized the little joys I have been missing because of my "anxiety and overthinking". God Bless you Michael!!
I cried off & on through this. I'll count it as my body releasing tension & pain. Thank you. This was very clearing.
Thanks for sharing l received this link from my son & shared with his brother & l too felt comfort
I wanted to post here as its been a long time since I listened. 6 months ago I was on the verge of suicide. My life was over and I clung to these audios to get me to the end of the day. Sometimes all you can do is push forward , remember and I swear it , things will get better. THANKYOU MC
What a beautiful reflection. I'm so glad you found a way through.
I remember getting 6 minutes in, I woke up with my earphones tangled around my neck

Amber Story of my every night life
Amber this was one year ago!
I have Multiple Sclerosis and an anxiety disorder. Overthinking is a huge problem for me. This has really helped!
Ive been doing this dance with anxiety for 20 Years now. Sonetimes it's gone, other times like right now its kicking my ass.
Stay strong friends 😢
Just got out of inpatient hospitalization for 7 days and come back home and have been super overwhelming and my anxiety started rising but I found this video and has put me in a good place ❤
Just tried this out. It was shocking. I actually got a little anxiety halfway through because meditation is an entirely new experience for me, and was unfamiliar with it all.
