2020-03-11 Guided Heart Meditation: Loving Kindness – Befriending our Lives 27:21
Tara Brach
This heart meditation guides us in how to cultivate a deep quality of friendliness in relating to our inner life and each other. The gift of this practice is a direct sense of belonging – knowing that we can never be alone (retreat meditation).
2020-03-11 Desire and Addiction (Part 2 of 3): Voices of Longing Calling You Home 41:30
Tara Brach
As part of the collective response to the Coronavirus—taking care of each other—Tara has cancelled her live class and recorded this from her home. Desire is intrinsic to all living forms – the urge to exist and flourish. It turns to suffering when, due to unmet needs, it contracts, intensifies and separates us from our full aliveness and awareness. These two talks guide us in awakening from this trance, and discovering how within desire is the longing that can carry us to true belonging.

2020-03-18 Guided Meditation for Times of Pandemic: “Calling on Your Awakened Heart” 23:43
Tara Brach
In the midst of difficulty we need access to our deepest wisdom and love. This guided meditation calls forth this loving presence by opening to the heart and spirit of whatever being in our life we most experience as calm, wise and compassionate.
2020-03-18 Facing Pandemic Fears with an Awake Heart 59:14
Tara Brach
While it’s natural to feel fear during times of great collective crisis, our challenge is that fear easily takes over our lives. This talk explores how the mindfulness and compassion of the RAIN meditation can help us find an inner refuge in the face of fear, and deepen our loving connection with each other.
2020-03-20 Nibbāna – The Taste of Freedom 46:09
Ajahn Sucitto
Is it possible that the obstructions we meet are our fiercest teachers? We encounter the places where construction is no longer possible. It’s the last place we want to go, but if we can cultivate skillful means to linger there, we can taste nibbāna in this very life.
