Episode Title: The Freedom of Forgiveness: Letting Go For Yourself

Podcast: Inner Peace Meditations with Steven Webb

Welcome to Inner Peace Meditations. This podcast will always be free and without adverts, made possible by the kind support of listeners. Thank you for being here.

A Note from Steven: If you find this meditation on forgiveness helpful, you may also wish to listen to the discussion on the same topic on my other podcast, Stillness in the Storms. You can find that episode here: [Insert Link to Stillness in the Storms episode]

This guided meditation is an invitation to find freedom by forgiving. Forgiveness isn't about excusing what happened or forgetting the pain; it’s about choosing to release the heavy weight of resentment for your own well being. It’s a gift you give to yourself. Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to be harmed; this practice is the antidote, allowing you to reclaim your own peace and move forward.

In this session, we will gently acknowledge past hurts and use the power of affirmation to cultivate an open and peaceful heart. You will be guided to see that you can be whole again, even after being hurt.

This meditation is designed to help if you are struggling with the pain of past events and want to find a way to move forward. It can be particularly helpful if you are looking to:

• Find peace after being cheated on or betrayed in a relationship.
• Let go of the anger and hurt caused by a friend or family member.
• Heal from difficult experiences at work or from childhood.
• Release resentment you hold towards a person, an organisation, or a situation that caused you pain.
• Stop feeling stuck in a loop of thinking about what happened.
• Learn how to forgive someone for your own peace, even if you never speak to them again.
• Find a sense of freedom from the past so you can live more fully in the present.

• Forgiveness for You: The central theme is that this act is for your freedom, not because the other person deserves it.
• Mushin (No-Mind): We touch on the Zen concept of a mind free from attachment and lingering resentment, allowing experiences to arise and pass freely.
• Acknowledge, Don't Re-live: You will be guided to acknowledge the event and the feelings it stirs without getting lost in the story.
• Affirmations for Healing: The practice uses gentle, inward affirmations such as, "I forgive you. Not for you, but for me," and, "May I live with an open and peaceful heart".

These meditations are offered for free, without ads, to help as many people as possible. If you find value in this and would like to help support its creation, you can make a small donation. Thank you for your support.

Afternoon Stillness for a Busy Mind

Sometimes the hardest part of the day is the middle. You’ve done a lot, but there’s still more ahead. Your mind races, your focus scatters, and your body feels tight or heavy. This five-minute guided meditation offers a simple pause to help you reconnect with calm, reset your attention, and soften the noise.

This practice is ideal for anyone who feels overwhelmed, distracted, or mentally exhausted during the afternoon. It’s especially supportive for those juggling work, caregiving, chronic health issues, or emotional burnout. Whether you're sitting at your desk, taking a quiet moment in the car, or finding a few minutes alone between tasks — this meditation is a soft anchor to bring you back.

You’ll be guided through gentle breath awareness and subtle body connection to help ease tension and slow the pace of your thoughts. There’s no pressure to do it perfectly — just space to be, breathe, and return to your centre.

This track can help with:

• Afternoon overwhelm or brain fog
• Emotional stress or anxious thoughts
• Reconnecting with presence and clarity
• Creating a mindful break in your routine
• Cultivating inner peace in the middle of busy days

Give yourself this small gift of stillness. You deserve it.

This guided meditation gently blends spoken reflection with quiet awareness, offering a way to move beyond the restless swirl of thoughts without trying to stop them. You will be invited to notice the momentum of thinking, like a flywheel or a passing train, and then return attention to the simplicity of the body and the present moment.

Rather than fixing or fighting the mind, this Dharma talk meditation brings a sense of ease and acceptance. With soft encouragement, lovingkindness, and a gentle re-entry, it helps you remember that peace is not something you chase. It is something you return to by stepping out of thought and into now.
