Meditation and mindfulness

Mindfulness and meditation offer so much more than just relaxation — they are vital self-care tools, especially for those living with or recovering from abuse.

In environments where control, fear, or unpredictability can dominate, these practices provide a small but powerful act of reclaiming peace.
They help quiet the noise, slow racing thoughts, and bring your attention back to the present — where you can begin to feel safe again, even if only for a moment.

These resources are here to support that process.

Use them whenever you need to breathe, reset, or to just simply be.
