Stevens new course: Finding Peace in Everyday Life (you choose how much to pay)

This meditation is for anyone who experiences intrusive thoughts, rumination, anxious loops, or repetitive mental chatter. It is especially helpful if you tend to get caught in arguing with thoughts, trying to suppress them, or worrying about what they mean. You will practice relaxing the body, letting the breath be natural, noticing thoughts as they arise, and choosing not to engage with them. If you notice you have already been pulled into a thought, you will practice returning gently without judging yourself. The intention is not to eliminate thoughts but to reduce their emotional grip by changing your response.
