„I am so happy that I was offered this job. It is going to change my life. Finally. I knew, I deserve something better,” Geraldine told her best friend on the phone. “How true. No longer dancing in these bars in Las Vegas and stimulating horny persons on the phone. I am convinced that they loved your great voice in the job interview.” Joshua replied. “This job will be really easy. It is an online community and they offer meditations. I just have to sit behind my microphone and do guided meditations. Many people will benefit from my way to stimulate the senses. They will feel happy and aroused at the same time. Their sexual instincts will blossom.” “I do believe you. Just listening to you, gives me a lot of desires. Anyway congrats.”In the next weeks Geraldine got a lot of training. Her supervisor Jack was extremely fond of her voice. He considered it soothing and reassuring. It made him forget all his worries. Jack thought Geraldine was very talented and was looking forward to seeing her online community grow tremendously through her guided meditations. But perhaps Gerald had also turned his head and he had a blind spot for her weaknesses. “On Saturday you will start. Make sure you speak sensually,” was Jack’s advice. Geraldine took her a huge microphone and spoke in a smoky voice. “I am so happy to welcome you all here. Take some deep in and outbreaths. Release all the tension in your bodies. In case you feel some pain, try to soften and soothe it. Soften, soothe and allow.” She herself was extremely proud of her terrific voice and tried to put more sensuality into it, an ounce more and another one, just like adding soup spoons of liquid into a dough. While she was speaking, she imagined that the dough got bigger and grew and grew. Geraldine could picture it in front of her mental eye.Whereas two weeks later at the same time another continent, José was not amused at all. “Her again. I want a nice meditation. Her voice is terrible and annoys me. Last week, I just left the Zoom meeting. This time, I will provide feedback. Maybe other people also do not like it and do not dare to say anything. Her way of conducting the meditation is not mindful at all.” In his feedback, José also wrote that he thought this meditation was a bit invasive.“Geraldine, I have to discuss something with you,” this time Chloé called her and told her about Jose’s feedback, “Unfortunately, he is not the only one. There have been more complaints. This is not what we want to offer and it contradicts our mission statement. Listen to your own recordings. What you like a guided meditation like that? Maybe Jack is a bit in love with you. So that he did not see clearly.” At first, Geraldine’s breath caught in her throat and she reproached herself inwardly. “Failed again. My father always said that I wasn’t going to be any good anyway,” so her inner monologue. “Geraldine, this will be fine. It does not mean that that you are dismissed without notice. We will practice together for the next two weeks.

“So not all in vain;” Geraldine told herself “Where there is a will, there is a way.” And there it was, she started to emphasize a comfortable posture being mindful and curious simultaneously.
