#Bonus: Summer Solstice meditation with Manda Scott
It’s the summer solstice, the longest day and the shortest night. What matters now in our world is that we reconnect with the rhythms of the living web.
This meditation is designed to help you connect to the rising sun on this day of longest light.


Solstice Bonus
This version of the summer solstice meditation has periods of silence in which you can explore your own feelings and observe the focus of your awareness. As with all meditations, please find a safe, quiet place where you can be completely undisturbed for the duration of the meditation – and a short while afterwards.
This version of meditation has birdsong overlaid so there is no silence. As with all meditations, please find a safe, quiet place where you can be completely undisturbed for the duration of the meditation – and a short while afterwards.

We are a storied species: Everything we do arises from the stories we tell ourselves and each other about ourselves and each other and our relationship with the web of life.
