Welcome to this month’s edition of A Peaceful Pause. 

A Peaceful Pause is one of my regular monthly offerings for my closed Substack community, along with The Reset.

Each month A Peaceful Pause features a guided audio practice from me. 

There’s now more than a year’s worth of guided meditations in the A Peaceful Pause archive which you can find all in one place here.

If you’re currently a free subscriber, upgrading your subscription will give you access to all my new meditation and yoga practices here as well as my growing archive of all posts. 

Not able to afford a paid subscription but value my offerings? Buy me a Ko-Fi and/or give this post a like ❤️

Slow Living in the Big City with Paula Hines is a reader-supported publication. Free subscribers receive two posts per month. Paid subscribers currently receive five posts per month including two recorded practices from me (yoga and meditation), as well as full access to my growing archive from just £1 per week. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

You can choose to do this meditation practice seated or lying down.

Here’s your Start the Day With Intention meditation (9mins 30secs):
