Wednesday Pause

“I have been knocking on the door. It opens.

I’ve been knocking from the inside! Rumi


“Don’t meditate to fix yourself, to improve yourself, to redeem yourself; rather, do it as an act of love, of deep warm friendship to yourself. In this way there is no longer any need for the subtle aggression of self-improvement, for the endless guilt of not doing enough. It offers the possibility of an end to the ceaseless round of trying so hard that wraps so many people’s lives in a knot. Instead there is now meditation as an act of love. How endlessly delightful and encouraging.” Bob Sharples, Calming The Mind

Testimonials from participants of Wednesday Pause

“Wednesday Pause is like a very simple but deeply special treat that I can give myself each week. Ms Lim’s voice is relaxing while somehow at the same time energizing. After the session, I feel ready not only for a healthy sleep but also ready to take on a fresh new day when the sun rises again.

I have learned about taking better care of myself as well as others. It’s amazing that something only 20 minutes long can inspire you so much and keep you excited for more! I’m greatly looking forward to what Ms Lim has in store for us this coming year. Thank you for your energy, your love for this field that’s so beautifully evident in all that you do, and for your dedication. It all means a great deal!”

“I enjoyed your meditation sessions. They gave me a peace of mind and clarity. Looking forward to them every time.”

“I love your sessions. They remind me to be look out and be grateful for the little moments and experiences. Thank you!”

“As I reflect, I’m really grateful to you for helping me on my mental health journey. Attending your Wednesday sessions as well as listening to your meditations have helped me deal with negative thoughts and emotions. I liked what you said in the recent Meeting Anxiety meditation that it’s okay to be anxious, and anxiety is not permanent. We are not always anxious. It’s something simple but it helped me to be calm. I also enjoy all of your poetry, particularly the one on Silence.”


There In The Stillness by Show You Love (extract).


There in the stillness, the whisper of angel’s wings

There in the stillness a place for beggars and kings

There in the stillness a fluttering of the soul

There in the stillness someone broken is being made whole


There in the rest a river of life overflows

There in the rest a fruitful garden grows

There in the rest I am anchored and secure

There in the rest is a joy so real and pure
