Social Anxiety Meditation - The Planet of Precious People

You start to feel more at ease among people, instead of braced for what people think of you.

That worry about being seen as nervous, or weird, or not quite right, before anyone has even spoken. It keeps you scanning a room instead of enjoying it, sorting people into categories built from old reactions that don't apply anymore.

This session leads you through an imagined world with every other person removed, free to take any car or any mansion, until the emptiness of it becomes obvious. Coming back, you're shown a piece of paper with the word precious written down the side, each letter unpacking into a quality, playful, curious, unique, sociable, helping people start to register as valuable rather than as something to be managed.

It runs about 23 minutes, and the change tends to show up first in small moments, choosing to say hello instead of looking away.
