Out Everywhere: Release Fear Meditation
👋🏼Hello! You can now find “Guided Laughter Meditation: Release Fear and Reduce Stress” wherever you like to listen to music. YAY!
Inspiration struck a few weeks ago, when it occurred to me that regular Laughter Meditation could be enhanced by music. Which then made me think… why not make the Laughter Meditation guided and design the music support the intended purpose?
And so… I started researching healing meditation music. There are so many amazing things to learn… so many ways to craft music to enhance a meditation. Solfeggio frequencies and binaural beats grabbed my attention. Both can affect the mind and body in ways that compliment the many benefits of laughter.
So hey, try out this Guided Laughter Meditation and let me know what you think. I will be creating more with various purposes (i.e. this one helps welcome change). Your input will help me make them better.
Take care and laugh on,
Kara
