This is the best meditation I’ve ever experienced in my entire 61 years. I will do this repeatedly. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for this no nonsense, get to the root core of your negative thinking, approach! Wow! Thank you
Heh everyone- It is 6 am and I am at basketball. I am sitting in the car with a coffee typing this....A lot has happened recently. Mum is in the hospital so my sister and I are caring for Dad. Mum will be fine. Saying that the mum juggles i do has been a little bit more difficult. I am still working towards having more time for youtube which is my ongoing goal. How are you? I do hope all is well. Isn't life just like a big wave which occasionally pulls you under and then after what seems like minutes we come up gasping for air only to be pulled under again. I do hope that you are ok. I hope to do more requests soo and more quiet night talks. Thinking of you...hope that you are going ok...in your little turbulent little wave. Much love to all of you. xx PS Sorry i haven't been responding to comments...I will get there xxx
As I write this, I am sitting in a hospital psychiatric ward...I got here as a result of complete overwhelm and hopelessness. The staff here have been teaching me about neuroplasticity and creating new and healthy thought patterns, and this video is exactly what I need, exactly when I needed it. Listening to it, I felt the first glimmer of hope that I can get through this. Thank you so much...I have been listening to your videos for quite a while now to fall asleep, but this one really spoke to me. I am truly grateful.
Dear Lauren, I have listened to your meditations and shorts for a long time now. This is the first time a write a comment though. There a many wonderful meditations out there and I have 3-4 favorites, including you. However, this specific one is the one I listen most to, it brings me peace, insight , a general feeling of love from your part and a feeling of self love. Thank you Lauren, thank you so much 🙏🏼 Greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪 ♥️🌹
Lauren I want to say thank you for all the help ❤️ you give me and everyone else it's such a beautiful peaceful sleep may God bless you and your family Amen
I agree that life is not easy. It is ever changing. Do not despair. Remember to take care of you. Without that cannot take care of your parents. Someone else said it but the universe does have your back. I look forward to all of your sleep nidras, I can’t sleep without them. Thank you very much. Namaste
Glad you like them! So lovely for you to take the time out of your day to write to me I love what I do so it really means a lot to me to receive comments such as yours much love Lauren
I needed this. the past 2-3 weeks at work has stressed me out so much. I had the biggest headache yesterday so bad I was starting to forget things. (I'm only 26) lol thank you for your help and your content. x
Oh you lil sweetie....too cute! Sitting in your car concerned about your world filled with friends. People that love you and are forever thankful for all the goodness you share with us! Plz know we we WILL be okay...I promise. But you must take care of your family and yourself above all else. Will keep your family in my prayers. Warm regards😙
Hi, Lauren. As always, this is superb quality and I very much appreciate your time and efforts that go into this. I'm immensely grateful for your presence and I would give you a huge hug if I could. I've read through some of the comments about the editing process you go through, and thought I'd share an idea. I'm an audio engineer (I think I've mentioned that bit previously at some point) and used to work in a recording studio where I am from. I've also done sound treatment installations. If you are having too much trouble with background noise and rumble, I suggest putting together a makeshift isolation booth. Dense carpeting and blackout curtains pulled taught to a surface of plywood will help, and using spongy material to separate the microphone from whichever surface to what it may be sitting on; even when mounted to a mic stand. I once recorded drums (of course much louder than a voice, so the noise floor was not an issue) in a garage with concrete and metal everywhere. I put thick carpeting on the ceiling above and the floor beneath them, and created plywood panels to more or less surround the drum set that were padded in the way I mentioned. The recording revealed absolutely no signs that a garage was the environment in which they were recorded. As for any frequencies that are low and rumble, I completely cut (high pass filter) the frequencies out below 90 Hz for voices. With a more enclosed environment to record in you will maintain the natural warmth of your voice quite nicely. In terms of editing, it will save you a great deal of time in post processing. Of course, I am assuming you haven't though of these things and perhaps at least haven't set up something like this, but a small investment of sound control during tracking makes a world of difference when it comes to applying mastering filters afterward. At least I hope someone may come across this and find it beneficial. You're amazing, and I do hope you're well.
What great ideas Christopher and I'm really grateful. I live in a rental on the main road. So investing in anything needs to be mobile rather than fixed. Trucks come across really loudly so I listen through headphones and then re-record these parts. I also live not so far away from an airport. I really feel that i need to spend a day a week in a recording studio. I plan to do this soon. I wish you were here!!! I don't know what high pass and low pass are or how to use them. if I record at night I'm fine but I get so tired. Really grateful and I know all will work out. I plan to buy a home in the next five years and the first thing I will do is soundproof a room. Christopher it is so nice of you to write please keep the advice coming and sending you love xxx
I wish I were there, also. I could set you up with an amazing makeshift isolation booth. When I set up partition walls in the garage I mentioned, it was easy to lift up and reposition as needed. Basically, you'd be building your own "sound proof room". Considering, you do make lovely work and I'm happy to have these interactions with you. You're pretty freakin' cool. :) High pass means using an equalizer to allow everything above it, to pass as normal. So setting a high pass filter at 90Hz means below 90Hz is dropped off in volume and above is kept the same as it was. You really don't need anything beyond that for equalizing, because you have a great sound to start with. I hope this all helps. You're beautiful and appreciated.
Oh, my dear friend.. Lauren, I thank you for what you do.. and I thank God for leading me in your direction. Without you and your videos, I don't know if I'd be able to sleep! You're so very important to me and my life. I hope you know how very much you mean to me and MANY more other people. Your beauty shines in so many various ways.. I wish we could meet for coffee. I feel absolutely blessed to hear/see your videos every night. Maybe you're my "spirit animal"!?!? Haha that's how strong the connection is when I listen to your videos. So so SO much love to you. XOXO- My family to yours!
Your voice immediately heals me, im a college student and ive been really anxious and stressed over finals week but watching all your videos has been SO helpful! Sending good vibes thank you💛
So happy to see this new meditation and exactly what I need tonight! Bless you Lauren ♡ sorry to hear your mum is in hospital. Yes, life is so like that wave! Thank you for your lovely warmhearted message. Your meditations are so very healing ♥ I absolutely love and depend on them. Thank you for everything xxxx
Dearest Anne thank you so much. Mum will be ok I think the is overtired looking after dad...but they are happy and they still live at home. Thanks so much Anne- I just love what I do so much. I really want to do more as I feel so happy when i create meditations...the tme will come. It is so lovely that you say that Anne....sorry that my appearance here is so spasmodic. Thank you, Anne, for listening to me. xxx xxx
Hi gaelyn I hope you’re okay thanks so much for listening to my content at this difficult time I hope you’re safe thanks so much for reaching out and so sorry for the delay in my response
Lauren.... I so needed this at this time... all the negativity that I have been experiencing inside my self here for about a couple weeks now has been quite intense..i sent you a private message the other day about this and this audio got this monkey off my back tonight.. your timing is perfect... thank you
Hi Dana thank you so much for taking the time to write and thank you for enjoying my content. I really love what I do so it is awesome to receive such a positive comment xx Lauren
Dearest Deborah Just lovely to hear from you. You are doing so well to process that negative thought process good on you. GOOD ON YOU. sending you love and gratitude Deborah. You are a loyal and caring friend thank you xxxxx
Dear Lauren Just wanted to say hello. Enjoyed your latest meditations. Fell asleep...twice. Only in our world would that be taken as a high compliment. lol All my best 🌹🌻🙄
I can’t say it enough how much these help me, Lauren.. sincerely. And thanks for the kind wishes you send out. 🤗 I relate to the story you share in the description so much (except the recovery aspect-still a work in progress but you are part of my team). I tried to sign up for the mentioned news letter but my iPhone wouldn’t allow me to enter any text..? I will continue to try later but perhaps it’s a concern for your ‘site developer?’ Much gratitude and a hug for you! I’m leaving for dreamland with ya now 😊
Great as usual Lauren. I particularly liked the description about the passage of air through both lungs. My thought during the meditation was to imagine that I was a molecular oxygen and then being transferred into the blood stream and later journeying back again as carbon dioxide hehe
Perhaps you had the sound up too loud? Hope you are ok Thank you for your lovely comment Thank you so much for listening to me and subscribing. Im grateful. Much love you your family Lauren xx
Hi Lauren I just want to say 2 things. Firstly siiiiit dowwwwn or liiiiiie dowwwwn and we will begin. Secondly I’m now going to like dowwwn and subscribe dowwwn comfortably and stay 👌
Hi guys - Nimhbo and Maddie- I try to each time to produce a voice and music version...sometimes when I record there are loud sounds of planes, motorbikes, and cars which cause vibrations and noise. When the sounds are particularly bad I try to use 'noise removal to clean up the background sounds. When the sounds are particularly bad I record 10 seconds of white noise...clean it up and carefully paste it in between each vocal piece. This takes a long time...perhaps 30 or more hours. If i dont use music on these recordings you can clearly hear the change from the vibrations behind my voice to the clean white noise and it doenst sound good. This one does not sound good without the music which masks the change over. Wherever possible I produce two versions. i would like to use a local studio...I am not quite at that point financially but hope to be soon. i appreciate your input- it means a lot to me xxxx lauren
Yay!!!! This should be perfect! Excellent! Can’t wait to listen later! I’m beyond ready for lunch with Jen tomorrow! It’s FINALLY here! Thinking of you. Oh I almost forgot. The new video is up! 🐢🐢 Enjoy!!!! ua-cam.com/video/lEXBFPihaZs/v-deo.html Hugs! 💕

Hi Lauren --i hate to ask you this again with all the stuff going on in your life but will you be doing a voice only version of this one?
Nimhbo I’m sure she will!

Lauren, speaking for my self I don’t care that much about tiny noises in the background. Don’t break your bank over little things like that.
Ah Grant that is much-needed advice I really appreciate that thank you. And thanks so much for listening.
I dont care about any noises in the background...as long as i can hear YOUR VOICE!!!! Thank you Lauren...Your always here when I need you!
👍👍👍👍👍
Yay!!!! This should be perfect! Excellent! Can’t wait to listen later! I’m beyond ready for lunch with Jen tomorrow! It’s FINALLY here!
Thinking of you.
Oh I almost forgot. The new video is up! 🐢🐢 Enjoy!!!!
