Listening Meditation | Meditation Kit #3
The Listening Meditation Kit is a gentle, grounding introduction to sound-based meditation, designed to cultivate calm, clarity and steady presence - both within yourself and in everyday life.
This kit is not about creating silence, controlling your environment, or judging sounds as pleasant or unpleasant. Instead, it teaches you how to use sound itself as a natural doorway into presence.
Sound is always arriving effortlessly. You don’t need to create it, search for it, or change it—only listen.
By resting in the act of hearing, attention naturally settles, reactivity softens, and the mind learns how to stay open and balanced, even in noisy or unpredictable environments.
The materials guide you step by step, while encouraging gentleness, curiosity, and consistency rather than striving or perfection.
What’s included:
🎧 Guided Listening Meditation Audio (MP3)
A clear, supportive guided meditation introducing the Listening (Hearing) Meditation practice.
The audio emphasizes openness, ease, and returning to listening without judgment whenever the mind reacts or wanders.
