IPGR003 Guided relaxation: Tree meditation

https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-hcpr2-1940d4c

This episode is a special guided relaxation practice — a Tree Meditation designed to help you release stress, ease anxiety, and reconnect with a sense of safety and grounding. Drawing on polyvagal-informed and relational approaches, this practice invites you to settle into your body, release tension, and gently root yourself like a tree — steady, strong, and supported.
