Online Guided Meditations on demand
We've created six online guided meditations to support your own practice, available to purchase downloadable for $10
Guided online meditations to help your nervous system settle and support deep rest
Join Kimberley, Rough Patch counsellor and certified meditation teacher, in these six downloadable online guided meditation sessions. These meditations are suitable for all levels with no previous meditation experience necessary, or perhaps you have a regular practice and would like to try something different.
The theme for each meditation sets the tone for what you’ll be guided through in each session. These gentle sessions are not about ‘clearing your mind’, feeling total calm, or finding enlightenment (bonus if that happens!). Rather, it’s about practicing slowing down to allow time and space for your nervous system to regulate stress and fatigue in the body and mind. It’s also a practice of allowing whatever is happening in the time you commit to the meditation to happen without having to do anything with it.

Guided Meditations and Downloads
Grounding
Length: 10mins
This meditation is designed for nervous system regulation by practicing present moment awareness, through visualisation, and coming back to Self through breath and a body scan.
If body scans do not feel comfortable for you, you’re welcome to stay with any visualisation or feeling that feels good for you.
If visualisation feels tricky (I don’t see pictures in my mind so this used to stress me out!), you can stay with the sense you have of the elements of the visualisation, or whatever feels most comfortable for you.
Cultivating a reflective practice
Length: 12mins
This meditation will guide you through a practice of self reflection with prompts and thought starters to ponder.
Gratitude
Length: 12mins
The practice of acknowledging what you’re grateful for and sitting in the feeling of gratitude.
Deep rest
Length: 18mins
Non-sleep deep rest meditation helps guide your brain and body into deep relaxation without falling asleep (but it’s ok if you do!).
This meditation is helpful for balancing your nervous system and shifting down gears from the busyness of day. With this in mind, the start of the meditation may feel challenging as we move from the ‘doing of the day’ to ‘being in the moment’.
There is no right or wrong way to meditate. Rather, it’s a practice of practicing being still and allowing your mind and body to help process what’s happening at the time.
Intention Setting
Length: 7mins
This meditation invites you to set intentions to help guide your decision-making so you’re moving towards things you would like, or ways you would like to be in your life.
Gentleness
Length: 13mins
In this meditation we will practice gentleness with Self; being kinder and more compassionate with who you are today and all you’ve come through.
Being gentle with Self creates space to slow down and approach Self with more care, especially in times of stress.
