2016-09-11 How to Use Sitting Time Wisely 14:47
Ajahn Sucitto
Guided Sitting Meditation: (Brief instructions given in first two minutes.) Touch ground, and begin to sense the body subjectively. Avoid too much language, being suggestive rather than technically accurate. Tune into the quality of it all binding together, affecting itself.

2016-09-11 Returning to Our Natural State 42:59
Ajahn Sucitto
Intro & Guided Meditation: Embodiment is a touchstone for deep sanity where we come back to our fundamental senses. It is a domain we cannot be separated from, though we separate ourselves from it.
London Insight Meditation Guided by Nature

2016-09-10 Tuning in to the Soft Intelligence of the Body 55:14
Ajahn Sucitto
Guided Meditation Body: When the held places in the body relax, energy shifts into a receptive state where many fine intelligences exist. Experiment with the power and gift of energies in the hands.
London Insight Meditation Guided by Nature

2016-09-10 Ground, Balance and Wholeness 33:10
Ajahn Sucitto
Guided Sitting Meditation: (Guidance begins at 10 min, and then again at 25 min) Ask the body to align and find balance, then allow it to happen through vitality versus will power. Look for wholeness with regards to physical pain: rather than splitting into a 'me' who has a stiff shoulder – can it be included?
London Insight Meditation Guided by Nature

2016-09-10 Embodied Presence is Always Here 17:05
Ajahn Sucitto
Intro & Guided Meditation: Embodiment is not the visual or notional form of the body, but a domain of sensations, pressures, temperatures, and movements. When attention is turned to this embodied experience and we relax what doesn't need to be activated, calm and sensitivity are naturally generated.

Please Note: This series of talks is from a retreat led by Rob Burbea and Catherine McGee for experienced practitioners.

2016-06-01 Real but Not True: Freeing Ourselves from Harmful Beliefs 1:11:30
Tara Brach
Thoughts and beliefs are navigational maps that are not inherently true. Rather, some serve us and others cause feelings of separation, self-aversion and/or blame of others. We can free ourselves from harmful beliefs by investigating them with a dedicated, mindful and courage presence. This talk guides us in mindful investigation through an illustrative story, an outline of steps, and a guided meditation that addresses limiting beliefs surrounding interpersonal conflict.
