Balanced Mind with Julie Potiker


Breathing Peace Guided Meditation

September 13, 2022

Find yourself a comfortable spot, sit back, relax and breathe in peace through this guided meditation led by by Julie Potiker. She completes the meditation with the poem, "Walk Slowly", by Dana Faulds.


Walk Slowly


It only takes a reminder to breathe,

a moment to be still, and just like that,

something in me settles, softens, makes

space for imperfection. The harsh voice

of judgment drops to a whisper and I

remember again that life isn't a relay

race; that we will all cross the finish

line; that waking up to life is what we

were born for. As many times as I

forget, catch myself charging forward

without even knowing where I'm going,

that many times I can make the choice

to stop, to breathe, and be, and walk

slowly into the mystery.


Walk Slowly, by Dana Faulds
