Join me on this guided visualisation meditation where you will be creating a safe space in your mind that you can visit whenever you want or need to. Learning a new language often causes us to feel stressed, anxious, frustrated and very nervous at times so it’s important we look after our well being, using tools to calm our minds and nerves so that we can alleviate these uncomfortable sensations. This guided meditation was created by Teal Swan. Find a quiet place to spend twenty minutes where you won’t be disturbed and let your imagination be as creative as it wants to be! Visit the website at www.britishenglishlanguage.com to find the transcription for this episode. Relax and enjoy :)
