  • Use Distraction to Hone Your Focus
    It might seem counterintuitive, but intentionally tuning into what’s distracting you can actually help strengthen your ability to focus.  In today’s guided practice, meditation teacher Toby Sola introduces what he calls a “concentration algorithm.” This practice will help you identify which type of sensory experience you are naturally drawn to, and then give you a structure for how to focus on it, so that you can quickly attain deep concentration. Toby Sola is dedicated to helping you create a feedback loop between your meditation practice and your ability to make the world a better place. Toby has been teaching meditation for two decades and has refined his craft through years of monastic training and close collaboration with the world-renowned teacher Shinzen Young. He is an award-winning designer and founder of the Brightmind Meditation app. Note that this practice includes long pauses of complete silence to give you time to spend in contemplation. If you want more time, feel free to pause the recording as you go.  The transcription of this guided meditation will be online at Mindful.org next week.  Stay curious, stay inspired.

  • A Walking Meditation to Savor the Day
    We mostly think of walking as an activity that is supposed to accomplish something: getting from point A to point B, exercising, reaching our daily step goals. And of course, those are all great reasons to go for a walk.  In today’s practice, meditation teacher and bestselling author Jon Kabat-Zinn offers up another way that you can experience a walk—simply as a way to enter more deeply into the vitality and sensory richness of what is happening in and around you right now.  A walking meditation isn’t about getting anywhere or accomplishing anything. It’s just about being with each step, fully here, where you actually are. There is no arriving, other than continually arriving in the present moment.      If you’d like the transcription of this guided meditation, it will be online on Mindful.org next week.  Stay curious, stay inspired.

  • A Meditation to Breathe Out Love
    Tonglen, sometimes called loving-kindness meditation, is a Tibetan practice of giving and receiving.  In Tonglen, we open ourselves to our entire experience, including what is painful and difficult. We acknowledge our suffering, including the suffering we share with others. Then, we release intentions for peace, healing, and love out into the world.   In today’s meditation, teacher Kimberly Brown guides us through a gentle practice based on Tonglen. This meditation is a space for us to simply experience our struggle, to breathe in any tension or tightness, and to breathe out love, both as a sense of openness and ease, and also as a way of being at peace with ourselves and others.  Note that this practice includes longer pauses of complete silence for reflection and presence. If you want more time, feel free to pause the recording as you go.      If you’d like the transcription of this guided meditation, it will be online on Mindful.org next week.  Stay curious, stay inspired.
