Before starting this podcast, listeners should get comfortable. Davidji calls it "feathering the nest." The sessions begin with soft, instrumental music. His deep voice guides listeners through each step. He uses visualizations, including imagining a space the listener loves. It doesn't have to be a physical place like an ocean. Davidji suggests a place where they feel safe, soothed, and undisturbed. Listeners also visualize their breath moving through their bodies. The host's breathing technique encourages deep sighing. Breath sounds play as listeners exhale.

Davidji asks questions to help listeners identify negative thinking. In some episodes, he asks them to rate their level of overwhelm. In others, he asks what they're grateful for. In each session, davidji encourages self-compassion and patience. He says people must learn to remain unmoving until the right action presents itself. It's a difficult thing to do in this frenetic world. That only makes it more essential. The Meditations for the Day host understands the struggle. He left a two-decade career in finance to pursue inner peace.
