2022-06-21 Walking Instructions 5:17
Ajahn Sucitto
Using a forest style of walking produces rhythmic comfortable walking like a lion rather than a chicken using 25-30 paces, sensing the general mood and enjoying the forest. (L'utilisation d'un style de marche en forêt produit une marche rythmique confortable comme un lion plutôt qu'un poulet en utilisant 25 à 30 pas, sentant l'ambiance générale et appréciant la forêt. )

2022-06-21 An approach to Meditation 25:01
Ajahn Sucitto
Tuning into the rhythms of the body and its breathing, we are aware of an impression in the heart. Sympathy or empathy is available to meet this. Relax. Let the body breathe undisturbed. (En accord avec les rythmes du corps et de sa respiration, nous sommes conscients d'une impression dans le cœur. La sympathie ou l'empathie est disponible pour répondre à cela. Relaxer. Laissez le corps respirer sans être dérangé.)

2022-06-16 Amazing Grace: Why Do Some People Turn Their Suffering into Compassion While Others Become Embittered? 50:41
James Baraz
In one discourse the Buddha taught that suffering can be a causative factor for faith to arise. However, that is not always the case. In fact, often suffering leads to bitterness, fear, and ill will. Why is it that, for some people, suffering is the catalyst to begin their spiritual journey and for others it's leads to negative patterns that contribute to a society filled with divisiveness, fear and "othering." We'll explore this mysterious process

Tara Brach
This meditation begins by relaxing through the body, and connecting with inner aliveness and space. We then include sounds and sense the openness to life. At the center of the practice is a relaxing back, and inhabiting spacious awareness. The meditation ends as we experience the heart from the vantage of spacious awareness, and offer prayers to our inner life and all life.
