Ajahn Sucitto
Ajahn Sucitto describes how our external and internal worlds come to be built upon exclusion.

Suffering is met and released through embodied presence with all that arises.

2018-07-25 Meditation: Saying “Yes” to Life 21:52
Tara Brach
We are conditioned to scan for “what’s wrong” and contract our body and mind in anticipation of danger. This meditation helps us undo these primal survival habits, and frees us to inhabit the full aliveness, creativity and love our natural being.
Insight Meditation Community of Washington DC IMCW Wednesday Evening Talks

2018-07-25 Saying “Yes” – Meeting Your Edge and Softening 56:37
Tara Brach
Our habitual ways of avoiding unpleasant experience keep us from intimacy with our inner life and with each other. This talk helps us recognize these often unconscious patterns that keep us identified with a separate, threatened self, and offers guidance in saying “yes” to the life we encounter. As we release resistance, we discover the creativity, wisdom and love that express our unbound, true, nature.
