April Fools! You know we think gratitude is the best. If you feel foolish or caught out today, or tend to get embarrassed easily, you might find this advice from Tess Wilkinson-Ryan as insightful as we did.

Do you ever feel like you're bracing for something bad to happen? Even if you're not into building bunkers and hoarding tinned goods, many of us act like doomsday preppers in other areas of our lives. We think that anticipating a bad outcome will make us feel safer and more prepared. But you're not more prepared. And it's hard to feel safe when you're constantly bracing for impact. It's time to let that go.

Didn't get everything ticked off before the long weekend? Us too. It sucks. But it's done. So permit yourself to press pause. Try this meditation to treat work hangover. Because often the best thing you can do for yourself (and your to-do list) is to rest properly so you can do your best again on Monday.

If the Easter long weekend has your wallet feeling a little lighter than you'd like, you're not alone. This is a gentle reminder of everything you have to be thankful for this Easter – and how much of it is free.

This meditation is about shining a light on those parts of ourselves that prefer to lurk in the dark. Not 'boxing' out shadows but understanding them, and maybe even finding out they've been protecting us all along. So if you're ready to turn 'no shade' into 'know shade' – press play.

This autumn-themed meditation invites you to embrace the changing weather and fall into mindfulness as the leaves change. Whether you're curled up on the couch or listening to the crunch of leaves underfoot, let's pause for a moment to appreciate the season and where you're at.

Stressing over cash? Let's find some chill in the bills. Of course, mediation can't solve the financial strain many of us are under at the moment. But not all of our anxiety around money is rational. We love this meditation practice for some sense when you're sweating the dollars.

Exercise can be extra strenuous when you're carrying the weight of past traumas. What if there was a way to move, stretch and strengthen your body while honouring this journey? We love this approach from somatic healer Johnathan Mead where safety and compassion lead the way.

This meditation isn't about chilling out. It's about tuning in.. . When we're stationary much of the day and live more of our lives through a screen, it's easy to feel out of touch with your body. Well, it's time to get reacquainted. We want to help you reconnect with your head, shoulders, knees and toes (knees and toes), and every other inch of that beautiful flesh suit of yours.

Tension? She doesn't even go here. Here's a mediation to start your week smoother than our Mean Girls references (yes ok MUCH smoother).

Behavioural scientist Logan Ury is calling bullshit on your 'icks'. Not because you're too picky or shallow. Rather, if you're someone who constantly gets the ick, then there may be something else going on under the surface. Are they icky, or are you scared of getting sticky feelings? Or maybe it's not that deep for you. Take a listen and decide for yourself.

Did you ever have a safety blanket as a kid? Or a stuffed toy that never left your side? There's no shame in feeling soothed by a physical object, even as an adult. But for many of us, our phones have become our safety objects. We love this tip to help you feel more anchored and self-sooth, without the notifications or distractions.

Ever feel like you're watching your life rather than living it? Like you're there but not really? Sometimes we mentally wrap ourselves in bubblewrap when life is a lot to handle. We're protecting ourselves from bad stuff, but also the good stuff. This exercise will help you pop those bubbles and gently bring you back to the here and now.

Stuck in a week that feels like it'll never end? Friday feeling like a distant dream? We can't snap our fingers and make it Friday, but you perceive time can change – which is why some weeks speed by and others drag more than a bad movie. Press play and give it a go yourself.

It's the autumn equinox. Why not take your cue from nature and start your own journey of renewal? As deciduous trees shed their leaves, thinking about clearing out what no longer serves you and making room for new growth.

Ugh, feelings. They can feel so big and powerful and overwhelming sometimes. Whether it's excitement, sadness, anger or all of the above, this meditation is about letting it all out... and letting it go. So take a deep breath, hit play, and let's do some emotional spring cleaning together.

Shakira was right, hips don't lie – they hold stress and tension. This is why they might feel stiffer and sorer when you're worried or overwhelmed. We love this somatic exercise to release tension and create space where stress and sadness have been compacted by time. Let's get our hips moving and let go of the heavy stuff.

Jk we're not big fans of the 'glow up' around here. It may sound sappy but we believe that the real glow comes from learning to love yourself, rock your own unique vibe and not overthinking how others perceive you. We know that it's not always easy, but this self-belief mediation is a good place to start.

In a world that celebrates 'busy' as a badge of honour, taking a moment to rest can feel like a revolutionary act.
