Overcoming the Biggest Challenges Preventing You From Beginning Your Meditation Practice
In this episode, Sarah and Jacob talk about their personal meditation practices and what they have found to best support them to gain benefit from sitting. One of the most important teachings related to meditation focus on how we handle losing focus. When we meditate we periodically lose awareness and concentration and go into a state of daydreaming or unconscious. Sarah and Jacob discuss their points of view on this phenomenon and give some practical tips for addressing this challenge. Use this link to download Sarah's "Ten Tips for Better Concentration" to help you develop your alertness during meditation. https://www.tsdmind.org/_files/ugd/8bdf26_638da1495f7840a8bcc0d806a8c1a1f7.pdf

When Thinking Becomes a Limitation and Emptiness Actually Feels Good
In this episode, Sarah and Jacob talk about the three doorways of liberation in the Buddhist teachings, emptiness, signlessness and aimlessness. Kinda sounds like a wondering fool doesn't it? Could it be that forgetting the details of who you are, giving less meaning to your circumstances and reducing your goal-setting are actually all the things that contribute to happiness? Sarah isn't completely convinced but Jacob does a good job convincing her otherwise.
