Does guided meditation help to achieve Mindfulness?

I do. I mean, I think we have to recognise that we are all different. And some of us are more comfortable in groups than others. Some of us, some people can feel a bit exposed, particularly if you're letting down your barriers. And it can take a lot of trust in a group to be there. That's, ironically, we can often feel more safe in a group of strangers than we can with a group of colleagues or friends or family. But overcoming those barriers and to become defenseless, which we become, although paradoxically, again, the more defenseless we become, the more invincible we become. But for some people, it can be difficult. But I think for everybody at some time, and for most people at the present time, it's helpful to have some guided meditation and meditation in groups, whether sitting around in chairs or on a Zoom call, it really doesn't matter. And to have somebody and maybe rotate it. Anybody who thinks that they're a master at mindfulness, almost certainly won't be. The one master will not be the most presumptuous person, but the most humble person in the group. I mean, genuinely humble, as opposed to Uriah Heep humility. So one can take it in turns in a group to have somebody guiding the meditation.
