The Balloon Release Meditation is a gentle, guided practice designed to help carers release stress and tension gradually and effortlessly.

Using the imagery of balloons being released one by one, this meditation supports both physical and emotional letting go — without pressure, analysis, or expectation. It’s especially helpful when you’ve been holding too much for too long.

Find a comfortable position, press play, and allow yourself to feel lighter with each breath.
