11-Minute Guided Meditation to Calm Anxiety | Overcome & Stop People Pleasing

This 11-minute guided meditation is for anyone who struggles with people pleasing and wants to stop overextending, over-apologizing, or settling to avoid disappointing others.

Through breath, attention, and nervous system safety, this practice helps you overcome approval seeking and reconnect with your own needs and boundaries.

People pleasing often begins as a way to stay safe, accepted, or loved. As adults it can lead to burnout, resentment, anxiety, and chronic self-doubt.

This meditation gives your body and mind space to unwind old patterns and build a more grounded sense of self.

Use this practice to:

  • Overcome people pleasing tendencies

  • Stop approval seeking

  • Say no without guilt

  • Set healthier boundaries

  • Calm anxiety about disappointing others

  • Strengthen self-trust and self-acceptance

  • Listen as often as you need.

Change happens through repetition, safety, and self-respect.
