We look for safety and stability in a level of experience that cannot provide it, that’s the source of agitation. In meditation we practice the ability to sustain ungrasping attention around a thought, feeling, situation, and particularly unpleasant feeling. The content will constantly shift, but the relationship to them, awareness, can become the source of stability. *Sutta reference is SN2:17.
This meditation includes a relaxing body scan and guidance on finding a space of peace and balance in the midst of whatever life brings us.
Also enjoy the Virginia springtime rain that accompanies us halfway through the meditation.
