RAIN meditation
Michele McDonald came up with the acronym RAIN to help us remember the steps to follow in helping our emotions get processed by our nervous system, especially when the fight/flight/freeze response is triggered, due to the collective fear we are experiencing.
In this session, Flor Montero returns to this method, reminding us how to best deal with what we are feeling regarding the COVID- crisis, with wisdom and compassion.
