Here are three guided meditations you can use to help inspire your mindfulness practice and address your specific challenges.

Sometimes it is helpful to cut out thinking and sometimes it is helpful to talk back to your thinking. These meditations are examples of how to talk back to your thinking. They are written in a form inspired by Thich Nhat Hanh’s guided meditations. You can also write your own guided meditations to work on life issues where you would like to create change.

Meditation for Jealousy

Meditation to Build Self-Esteem

Meditation for Anxiety

Meditation for Depression

**Overcoming jealousy, building self-esteem, working with anxiety and depression take time. Each of these guided meditations take about 2-3 minutes if you breathe with the lines. If you just read them they take about 30 seconds and don’t give you the benefit of deep breathing. Practice one or all of these every day. Practice the anxiety one whenever you are feeling anxious and need a bit of relief.

**Practice every day, once or twice a day and notice the effects, both immediately and as the weeks pass.
