Commuting, whether on the tube, bus, or train, it’s that in between time where we’re neither here nor there, just moving from one place to the next. But what if I told you that the time you spend commuting is a great opportunity to reconnect with your true self and ignite your soul purpose? It can become a special moment, an opportunity to pause, breathe, and focus.

This book presents a fresh perspective on meditation. There’s no need for a quiet room, a yoga mat, or hours of free time to practice. Instead, these meditations are designed to integrate into your commute, turning that in-between time into something meaningful and invigorating. This book is more than just a collection of guided visualisations; it’s an invitation to transform your commute into a valuable part of your day. Each chapter is designed to meet the unique needs of busy professionals, making meditation accessible and practical, no matter how hectic your schedule may be.

The guided visualisations are designed to keep you fully aware of your surroundings at all times, ensuring that you can still react or respond if needed. They won’t make you fall asleep or lose awareness; instead, they guide you into a light meditative state where you can stay alert yet calm and focused.

In Meditations for Commuters: For Busy Professionals, you’ll find practical guided visualizations to assist you with common challenges like time management, creativity, and overcoming procrastination. And then, there’s Chapter 4, a bit of a wild card and a personal favorite. This chapter invites you to shift your perspective on your fellow commuters, encouraging you to approach them with openness and empathy. It’s about finding joy in the ordinary, turning a mundane commute into a moment of connection and light-hardheartedness.

This book is just the beginning. Look out for the next volumes in this series.
