About Linda:
Have you ever battled overwhelming anxiety, fear, self-limiting beliefs, soul fatigue or stress? It can leave you feeling so lonely and helpless. We’ve all been taught how to be courageous when we face physical threats but when it comes to matters of the heart and soul we are often left to learn, "the hard way."
As a school teacher for over 30+ years, struggling with these very issues, my doctor suggested anti-anxiety medication but that didn't resonate with me so I sought the healing arts. I expanding my teaching skills and became a yoga, meditation, mindfulness, reiki and sound healer to step into my power and own my impact.
A Call for Love will teach you how to find the courage to hold space for your fears and tears. To learn how to love and respect yourself and others more deeply.
My mission is to guide you on your journey. I believe we can help transform the world around us by choosing love. If you don’t love yourself, how can you love anyone else? Join a call for love.

Welcome to a soft meditation to
Speaker:help your mind and body
Speaker:ease into peace, Ease
Speaker:into sleep. My
Speaker:name is Linda Orsini, and
Speaker:please allow me to guide you
Speaker:into rest. And
Speaker:so slowly, just allow
Speaker:your whole body to settle towards the earth.
Speaker:Take a deep inhale through your nose.
Speaker:Pause at the top, and
Speaker:then exhale all the way out
Speaker:to the bottom, the soles of your feet.
Speaker:Again, inhaling, breathing in through your
Speaker:nose, Gently holding your breath
Speaker:at the top. And
Speaker:then exhaling. Exhaling,
Speaker:letting it all go.
Speaker:As you inhale, feel the breath draw all the
Speaker:way to the crown of your head.
Speaker:As you exhale, feel the breath draw all the way down
Speaker:your body, letting go just a
Speaker:little bit more.
Speaker:Now allow yourself to soften.
Speaker:And I'd like you to bring to mind something that
Speaker:feels soft.
Speaker:Maybe it's a feather, light and
Speaker:gentle,
Speaker:floating in the air.
Speaker:Something that feels soft and light for you.
Speaker:And then let your breath become like that.
Speaker:So soft.
Speaker:So light.
Speaker:And if the feather was placed just underneath
Speaker:your nose, it would
Speaker:hardly flutter.
Speaker:And allow my words
Speaker:to float in and out of your consciousness.
Speaker:There's nothing to hold on to.
Speaker:Nothing to figure out.
Speaker:Just allow yourself to receive in this moment.
Speaker:Softness often comes when there is
Speaker:space.
Speaker:A gentle spaciousness in your breath,
Speaker:your skin,
Speaker:your body.
Speaker:Feel that space
Speaker:and lightness
Speaker:in your chest,
Speaker:your belly,
Speaker:Your arms and
Speaker:legs as you release
Speaker:deeper and deeper
Speaker:into gravity.
Speaker:Your back body is grounded and supported.
Speaker:Your front body is open,
Speaker:soft and spacious.
Speaker:Light, soft,
Speaker:spacious.
Speaker:Light, soft,
Speaker:spacious.
Speaker:Allow those words to echo within.
Speaker:Now gently bring to mind
Speaker:something even softer.
Speaker:Maybe now instead of a feather,
Speaker:bring to mind a
Speaker:cloud
Speaker:Soft, full
Speaker:and resting in the sky.
Speaker:Feel yourself surrounded by that
Speaker:fluffy cloud.
Speaker:Your breath drawing in like a whisper
Speaker:And drawing out like a cloud dissolving.
Speaker:Let your breath become quieter,
Speaker:slower,
Speaker:softer, like a cloud
Speaker:drifting across the sky.
Speaker:There's nowhere to be.
Speaker:Nothing to do.
Speaker:You can just be
Speaker:Still.
Speaker:Soft.
Speaker:Held.
Speaker:Notice how your heart gently rises with
Speaker:each breath in.
Speaker:And fully let's go with each breath out.
Speaker:Let the softness spread through your whole being
Speaker:your eyes,
Speaker:your jaw,
Speaker:your shoulders,
Speaker:your chest.
Speaker:Let go.
Speaker:Always coming back
Speaker:to that soft feather
Speaker:or cloud
Speaker:or whatever brings you comfort.
Speaker:Feel your body merge with that softness
Speaker:as you rest in stillness.
Speaker:Floating.
Speaker:Safe.
Speaker:Free.
Speaker:Let yourself be here.
Speaker:Resting.
Speaker:Breathing.
Speaker:Being. Allowing
Speaker:your whole body,
Speaker:your breath
Speaker:and your deep center
Speaker:to draw deeper and deeper
Speaker:into the silence,
Speaker:into the stillness within.
Speaker:Light,
Speaker:Soft.
Speaker:Spacious.
Speaker:Light.
Speaker:Soft.
Speaker:Spacious.
Speaker:Light.
Speaker:Soft. Spacious.
Speaker:And as you feel yourself resting here in
Speaker:this moment,
Speaker:Letting peace wash over you.
Speaker:Letting stillness stay.
Speaker:Resting in that space
Speaker:of wholeness.
Speaker:Feeling the breath. So light
Speaker:and soft.
Speaker:A beautiful giving and receiving
Speaker:So that you can draw deeper into that
Speaker:silence within.
Speaker:That deep knowing
Speaker:where softness lives.
Speaker:Softness in the realization
Speaker:of this moment.
Speaker:Connecting deeply
Speaker:with the essence
Speaker:of the here and now
Speaker:As you allow yourself
Speaker:to continue to release,
Speaker:to continue to drift deeper
Speaker:into that light,
Speaker:soft, spaciousness
Speaker:of ease of
Speaker:peace,
Speaker:of deep rest.
Speaker:And just like layers of an onion,
Speaker:peeling away another layer
Speaker:of what no longer serves you.
Speaker:Allowing yourself to simply be
Speaker:soft,
Speaker:light,
Speaker:spacious,
Speaker:and at peace.
