How to Train a Happy Mind

This is a guided meditation for self-reflection, so you can take control of the mental cause and effect that's normally unconscious: the habits and activities conditioned by evolution, our upbringing, society, and the media. 
You can do this at the end of each day: reviewing your day, rejoicing in the positive, and finding ways to sincerely forgive yourself for anything that you regret. This way, you can sleep better and be your best self the next day.

Evolution, habits, and society all affect our behavior. How do we gain conscious control of our behavior, much less our thoughts? 
One method is a daily practice of self-appreciation and self-forgiveness that lets us release regret and pain to face each day with renewed presence and joy.

A guided meditation on impermanence that invites you to soften fear and ease anxiety by opening to the natural flow of change in every part of life. Together we explore change at every scale of reality, from particles and possessions to homes and the natural world, and from thoughts and emotions to perceptions and relationships. 
As you learn to welcome impermanence rather than resist it, you build steadiness in the face of uncertainty, feel more present with the people around you, and discover a deeper appreciation for life’s fleeting, beautiful moments.
