Meditate with Tia

About Meditate with Tia

Meditate with Tia is a resource for both beginner and experienced meditators to access guided meditations, tips, resources, and inspiration for practice. Every week, I will share a guided meditation in both written and audio format, as well as a brief mindfulness talk to inspire your practice. Seeing as life is the practice, topics most aligned with my life will also be weaved in with the mindfulness teachings such as creativity, art, relationships, nature, exploration and motherhood. I have been practicing meditation and mindfulness since 2016 and am currently in my final year of graduate school for mindfulness studies. This type of inner inquiry is similar to a personal science experiment where one goes inward and explores the nature of their wandering mind to gain insight. Therefore, this podcast/Substack will never be giving, "I have all of the wisdom, let me tell you what to do." Instead, my intention is for this space to feel grounding, warm, welcoming, gentle and serve as a loving reminder of the wisdom that is already within you.

   Pregnancy body-scan meditation

   During pregnancy, I find that listening to guided meditations is the most helpful way to practice. It's a great way to receive in this season, allowing yourself to unwind and be nurtured by the words in the audio recording. Guided meditation can help us connect with our pregnant body and growing baby, show ourselves loving-kindness and compassion, and practice presence rather than getting lost in the active, thinking mind. This is a guided body-scan meditation specifically for pregnancy to help you reduce stress, regulate your emotions and tune into the body. I always recommend listening to a specific meditation daily for an extended period. It's training the mind like we train muscles; the more we practice, the easier it becomes. Even if you've meditated a hundred times, you will likely find new insight and wisdom arising in each session, as every moment has something new to offer.

   New Year Equanimity Meditation

   Exploration of the impact of craving and desire in one's own inner world is at the core of mindfulness and meditation practice. Dismantling the habit of desire can bring about some of the most profound inner transformation available within mindfulness practice. While acknowledging our greedy tendencies is a key component, this habit of craving in humans extends far beyond material and superficial desires. From the Buddhist Psychology perspective, every moment of experience is tied to a habitual attitude of desire, in the form of craving or aversion. If a moment of experience is pleasant, we crave more of it. We cling to it. We obsess over creating pleasant feelings and experiences. If a moment of experience is unpleasant, we push it away. We resist feeling or facing it. We obsess over avoiding painful feelings and experiences. And this reactive pattern of desire is the source of all unnecessary human suffering, according to these ancient teachings. This is a guided audio meditation with a special focus on the cultivation of equanimity, designed to ease a mind inclined to desire, craving and aversion by boosting serotonin and bringing joy and contentment back to the present moment.
