This is the last of six guided meditations, which will provide you with a firm foundation to begin and deepen your mindfulness, insight, meditation practice.

This session provides guidance in how to work with difficult emotions. We tend to delight in pleasant emotions and struggle to get rid of the unpleasant ones. Mindfulness will allow you to meet emotions of all kinds as guides and teachers. When challenging emotions are present we are guided to turn toward them with love and compassion: to embrace rather than hate them. As we allow ourselves to become intimate with them they reveal their true impermanent and impersonal nature. we learn to rest with our hearts open in the middle of all of the challenges of life.

This is the fifth of six introductory guided meditations, which will provide you with a firm foundation to begin and deepen your mindfulness, insight, meditation practice. This session introduces you to the final three of the five hindrances: Restlessnes and Agitation, Sloth and Torpor, and Doubt. When the mind is too energized, low energy or filled with doubt, knowing how to bring awareness and wisdom to them is the path to letting them be so they weaken and vanish,

This is the fourth of six introductory guided meditations: Sometimes one can hardly find the breath to use it as a training object. At such times a meditator can up-level the game and become aware of which of the Five Hindrances are present. The first two form a polarity: Craving and Aversion. Rather than struggle to stop or banish these powerful and natural life energies one learns how to acknowledge and accept them and in so doing to reduce their power and capacity to pull us into delusion.

The guidance is heart-centered and creates an atmosphere of kindness and compassion to allow awakening to ripen.
