Thank you so much... I'm a 17 year old guy that goes to a school full of caring people but I still cannot help but feel judged all the time... I've been really suffering and my mind has been on full throttle for too long, I always feel like everything is too much for me. I use youtube as a remedy. I watch my favorite youtubers and they make me laugh and smile more than I do with my friends in real life. No matter who i'm with, i feel so... different, I feel so boring and it has destroyed my confidence in any thing I do. My family can't afford to get me a therapist or anything of the sort. These videos, though i just found them today, have helped me so much already. Thank you from the bottom, sides, middle, and top of my heart.

The key to recovery is acceptance and just do what you love. Enjoy your hobbies, enjoy the people in your life. This is temporary. Its not easy. But with time you will become disciplined and will be able to control your anxiety.

Some interesting thoughts I'd like to share... My Experience with Meditation Mindfulness meditation is great tool you can use to help clear your mind from the myriad sea of thoughts that randomly pop in and out of existence in your head which prevent you from seeing the world for what it really is. Just started taking it seriously and played around with it recently and wow, it truly is such an amazing feeling when you transition in and out of that meditative state. Coming out of it, you become more fully aware of your surroundings. You're no longer lost in thought (at least for a while, depending on how effective your meditation is) and you become more focused with whatever you're doing. There's just this burst of excitement after you come out of it and you're just fascinated by everything around you. It's like you've been born back into this world again. Coming out of mediation feels great and improves your perception of reality, but that's only one part of the experience. When you successfully enter the meditative state is where things start getting interesting. The state of nothingness- no thought or feeling at all, IS the meditative state. Letting go of your thoughts and being a thoughtless poo is a bit hard and tedious at first (for those that are so used to constantly thinking/worrying all the time), but over time, with practice, you'll get better at releasing your mind from your thoughts and eventually enter that state of nothingness faster*Maybe the longer you remain in that state, the higher the form of consciousness/view of reality you will come back with?*. Your thoughts of what other people think of you, your anxieties, your worries; all the bullshit you're thinking that's preventing you from actually doing the things that you want to do- everything just shuts off and you enter this new state of existence that's separate from both your mind and your body... A little taste of nirvanna It's such a euphoric, blissful state to be in. Some call it Jesus, nature, god, your higher self, whatever that thing is; you start feeling this strong, deep connection to something that's greater than you (at least from my experience) Transitioning back into the world from that state is even more bizarre, haha. It's like you've just came out of your mother's womb, or you've awaken from this really deep hypersleep. You're basically brought back into this world with a refreshed state of mind and you start becoming more focused and aware of this game we're all participating in. You're all like, wow, I just came out of that nothingness, and here I am now. Maybe that's what these luminaries: Tesla, Einstein, Newton, Mozart, the Buddha, etc- have gone through. Maybe it's this realization and intense concentration on reality that allowed them to play the game more efficiently and/or produce such great works? Gah, here I go again lost in thought, spouting out this mindless brabble like some kind of crazed lunatic again... I guess it's about time I enter that state again; I really need to get that firm, fully focused grip on reality. Definitely need to do a vlog on this sometime in the future

Thank you Christian for such a well written post. I am just starting to practice and learn about Mindfulness and am totally blown away by the effect it has had on me. A chronic worrier, overthinker and filled with anxiety, I am now learning to let go of all that and live in the present. I read a wonderful quote somewhere "we can only experience love, compassion, the environment and the universe at this very moment. All else is an illusion". Unfortunately, the author was not cited and so I don't know who wrote it, but it has totally changed my life and my way of looking at things. Mindfulness meditations have been helping me to remember this and to stay focused on the present. As I said, I am a newbie to all of this, and the depth of my meditative state is still quite shallow, but I know with practicing it daily it will deepen and outside thoughts will become less and less. Again, a sincere thanks for your thoughts on Mindfulness. It all made sense to me and has encouraged me to keep on learning about it. xoxoxoxo

I listened to this two years ago for my first ever meditation when I was battling crazy panic disorder/OCD thoughts at 20. After months of constant listening and practice I found peace within myself and it is all thanks to your meditation ! Though I kind of lost my way the past month again and i'm back in the deep end of anxiety. So I just recently remembered that I found comfort in this video, It's a very hard journey indeed but reading the comments and taking in the comfort from this video I know it's something I can handle. So thank you so much Honest Guys, you inspire me to create positive change in this world and you should be proud that you help millions people.

At first when I heard about mindfulness I honestly thought it was a load of rubbish but once I was shown it from my first experience It genuinely took so much of my stress away. I'm a 17 year old student really struggling with the stress and anxiety of school at the moment, I felt like I was stuck and had no way of reliving this stress that was seriously affecting me. These guided meditation videos have helped me so much, stress is so underrated in young adults and teenagers, depression and self harm numbers are rising year on year. If mindfulness was taught in schools and collages I believe it would really benefit a lot of young people with the stresses that they are faced with today. There's not enough help out there for teenagers such as myself and this is why they become quickly sucked into the depression hole with no way of knowing how to get back out. So I want to thank the people who make these videos because I'm sure they're really benefitting a lot of people just like me.

One tip for all is to have a Mantra. Repeat that mantra. It doesnt have to be Om. But your mantra. Ex. "I am free". Repeat this mantra in your head for the 10 minutes that you are doing meditation. While doing the things mentioned in this video. Having a mantra further increases your focus and helps to prevent thoughts coming in. Slowly when you have mastered this then you can try without the mantra!

I'd like to have a version with no sound effects on the background. The voice alone is very soothing. I think it would be a more powerful experience.

+FNA Actually, you can take advantage and focus on the sounds. That alone helps you stay mindful, in a sense because you're using your ears to focus :)

I take ADHD medication, and it tends to make my heart POUND. This morning the pounding was quite bothersome and wouldn’t go away, so I decided to try some mindfulness. My mom has always recommended meditation to me, but I’ve just brushed it off and never really tried it. But now that I did... whoa. It was such a special experience and it genuinely helped to calm down my heart rate. Thank you so much for this video, I’ll definitely try this again very soon.

I started Yoga through my therapist and meditation at the suggestion of my wife and this was the first video I watched and it was an INSTANT life changer. I do this about 3 times a day and also add an extra video at times if I'm having a really rough time. But to the creator (s) of this particular session/video, I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. I know it sounds stupid to a lot of folks, but this has legitimately changed my life. So, again, thank you!

I was broken into pieces the moment I confronted my weakness. I was agitated by the fact that I had reacted in such a way when the person had not even been speaking to me directly I frequently encountered these situations, and the following was my fleeting mechanism: 1. I listened to music or watched a film to shift my focus away to something irrelevant 2. I went to a nearby cafe. 3. I made unnecessary phone calls with friends and gloated about something I continuously practiced physical relaxation methods instead of choosing to escape. The coffee shop truly was the optimal place to practice. I realized why I had wanted to go home early before. At home, no one would attack my vulnerability.

Since I started with anxiety that drove me to high blood pressure for 4 years now, (and finallly feeling much much better), I have read a lot about it in order to look for other ways to heal myself besides medication...that is how I found you guys thanks God. I want to deeply thank the third member of your wonderful team, Mrs. Sian Lloyd because it is amazing how she puts all the knowledge about treating anxiety in a few clue soft simple and exact words that really have an immediate effect in calming my mind and my shivering body.

It was weird. When it was time to let go of the colored balloons (represented by my own thoughts), my head kept on moving forward and backward, just like lying my head on the waves of the sea. It was smooth yet continuous. The moving stopped after the meditation. In the end, I felt like I was in another world, attaining personal peace that I sought for months. I felt the comfort and confidence that I once had. Thank you for making these kind of videos. May they serve as instruments of attaining inner peace.

This meditation guide changed me. On nights where I listen to this, Its so weird I dont know how to describe it. So like when I go to sleep after, I can still hear everything that's going on but it doesn't effect me, I sleep as easily as if its silent. I can still physically hear them but my mind just lets go. Usually, when I go to bed, I turn in my bed for 20m but this just stopped all of that. Now I'll go to bed, turn maybe once and fall asleep within 10 minutes max despite my family being awake and quite noisy. Love it.
