Guided Meditation – Whole Body Awareness
54:38
|
|
Ajahn Sucitto
|
|
|
We may assume, and learn, that meditation is about focusing on details, but the Buddha advocates whole body awareness. Make an exercise of it, extending your awareness. Maintaining attention on the whole body doesn’t allow the mind to fixate – it stays open so the tangles and storms have no place to take hold. Posture, breathing and a receptive mind state all act as supports.

Meditation: Continuous Space Suffused with Awareness
18:38
|
|
Tara Brach
|
|
|
By learning to inhabit the body, we discover the space and aliveness that fills the universe. In this meditation we are guided through the body, filling different domains with presence. We then open into the continuous awake space that is both within and surrounds the body. When we notice the mind drifts, we relax back to be that awake space, aware of the changing flow of sensations, thoughts, feelings and sounds.

The weekly practice groups are designed to be a cornerstone for one's practice by providing ongoing instruction and teachings that will help illuminate the simple but challenging practice of mindfulness. The Buddha taught that mindfulness is the way to go beyond habits of distraction and grasping. To walk this path of wisdom and compassion, we need the support of a community that shares this intention. Each session includes a guided meditation, dharma talk, and discussion. Both experienced and beginning meditators are welcome. No registration necessary. Wednesday nights will be led by Shelly Graf, and guest teachers.
Shelly will be using the book, Listening to the Heart: A Contemplative Journey to Engaged Buddhism by Thanissara and Kitisaro to guide these Wednesday night practice groups. The book can be ordered online if you would like to follow along with the written text.

Beyond the Present Moment

Nathan Glyde

Being present is an essential component of the Dharma path. It feels good to bring body, heart, mind, attention, consciousness, all together in the present moment. But being present is not the goal of the Dharma. (Guided meditation and Dharma reflection from Gaia House's Online Dharma Hall)
