I have been doing it daily since 2015. It rescued me from a nasty, disgusting and stinky mental state. A living hell!
I just wish that meditation was taken more seriously. This world would be a way better place. Bliss and Peace!

Perfect meditation. No music which I always find a bit too distracting. Thank you!

I have had asthma, COPD and other lung conditions my entire adult life; for more than fifty years. Focusing on my"breath" in meditation has been difficult for me. It's a trauma trigger. But today, as I listened to you, for the first time I discovered that focusing on the movement of my diaphragm instead of breathing was a safer, less traumatic way to focus and clear my mind. I know I am not the only person with lung and breathing problems who have this issue. I thought this insight might be of interest to you.

Love the breaks of silence in this, a great middle step between the ‘full narration’ that most guided meditation has and fully independent meditation

As a new meditator I enjoy it a lot. Jon is an amazing Grace. Thanks.

[melissatoni]

I like how "No Nonsense" is super close to "No Bullshit" lol Thank you Jon, for your beautiful book "Wherever You Go, There You Are". I just finished that today.

I like the simplicity of your meditation giving room to meditate for myself without a lot of talk. Love your books too

[lylemccomber]

In my opinion this is the best meditation on You Tube

[mariarothe]

It's Kabats voice that is guiding us into the moment.

Thank you for your compassionate tone 💜

I have been doing this for 60 days now. The mental chatter has reduced a lot. Long way to go, but definitely making progress. Please pray for me 🙏

[bernadette]

Beautiful, thank you. I keep coming back to this video

[catharinepizzarello]

I’ve been trying for many years to learn how to meditate. You have opened my eyes. Thank you so much, professor!

[gloriacote]

I've always liked your meditations. It's your voice that does it. Thank you.

[michaelsmith]

If you think it’s nonsense, no one is forcing you to be on here. This guy has been helping people with guided meditations for longer than you have been alive. If you’re focused on the negative with everything, you will certainly find plenty of it anywhere. Good luck finding happiness with your negativity.
Namaste

Love the way he guides the meditation❤️👌

[mooremeditation]

I appreciate your voice. Thank you for this meditation.

My favorite meditation teacher! He also wrote a terrific book on applying mindfulness, called Full Catastrophe Living. I have both the hard copy and the audio version.

Your voice and pacing are soothing and effective. For me, however, after perhaps ten minutes of focusing on my breath, I feel a pull to seek a higher intelligence, the Source of love. Feeling waves of light from a spiritual guide or essence is powerful and my heart becomes full, enabling me to more calmly deal with the “reality” of daily living.Namaste!

[davidcloud]

I was very anxious today and looking for ways to calm myself. This was the first time Ive ever been guided through meditation. Very Helpful, thank you

[damianfernandez]

I began to practice meditation with Francisco Vanoni, then I became a follower of your job. Fantastic!
