2021-12-21 Appreciating Equanimity 50:59
Mark Nunberg
Download Listen
Equanimity can develop into a radiant and powerful balance of heart and mind that provides both a taste of freedom and clarifies the path of practice. Equanimity arises both by learning to recognize and abide with any wholesome experience of wellbeing, and by the deepening insight into the transitory, ephemeral nature of all things leading onward to dispassion

2021-12-22 Guided Meditation - All Things Converge upon Feeling 49:28
Ajahn Sucitto
Download Listen
Establish mindfulness with the experience of a feeling body, the most fundamental source of feeling. Use a wide form of attention that covers the whole body. As phenomena are changing the mind is still with receptivity and deep listening. The nature of sati doesn’t react to feeling. The feeling can be felt, without blaming, criticizing or getting involved. When feeling isn’t given any more food, it becomes more equanimous.

Betsy Rose
Download Listen
This season is full of holidays! There is Solstice, celebrating the rebirth of the sun after the longest darkest night. There is Hanukah, celebrating the mystery of enduring, impossible light protecting the sacred. And there is Christmas, honoring the birth of the prophet and teacher Jesus (often called “The Light of the World”). Betsy reflects on the miracle of being born at all, against impossible odds, and how we are shaped by the causes and conditions we are born into. Darkness and Light, Joyful Existence and Dukkha- we’ll celebrate the whole mess!

Loving presence is an innate capacity, and it can be cultivated. This meditation begins with a scan arousing a relaxed tender presence in the body, then brings loving attention to our inner life, and in widening circles, to our world.

2021-12-22 Loving Ourselves into Healing – Part 2 52:40
Tara Brach
Download Listen
We are often at war with our difficult emotions—judging and hating ourselves for our fear, anger, clinging or shame. And as a society, we turn on others as lesser or bad, as the enemy. These talks explore how, in both domains, our continued evolution, healing and freedom depends on learning how to embrace what we have pushed away.
