This year-end meditation invites you to gently release emotional weight, mental clutter, and nervous system tension from the past year. Through science-backed insight and guided visualization, you'll learn how release supports stress reduction and emotional healing—without forcing closure or positivity.

This is day 1 of a 7-day meditation series, "Closing the Year with Gratitude and Grace Meditations," episodes 3437-3443.
