Welcome to the second meditation of our Grief, Collected series, which come out every Friday.

Today is a breathing meditation with Linda Thai. Linda is a therapist and leads meditations as part of her somatic healing practice. She will take us on a 10 minute meditation to explore our relationship to our ancestors through release and healing. And for those us that get antsy about the idea of meditating for 10 minutes - we get it! Take a walk and see how it feels.

Linda Thai is also featured in Episode 3 of the podcast.

More about Linda Thai and her work here.
