Beyond the Story of Self: Four Meditations to Loosen the Ego's Grip


Listen Later

In Beyond the Story of Self, Craig guides a series of meditations that gently loosen the structures that define who we think we are. 

Most of us move through life with an unspoken assumption—that we are someone, somewhere, located within the edges of our skin. We assume there’s a boundary between “me” and everything else. 

But in meditation, a different possibility begins to reveal itself. The edges soften. The sense of inside and outside starts to dissolve. And for a moment, there’s no fixed identity to hold on to—just a vast, open awareness that includes everything and resists nothing. This shift can feel disorienting at first. But if we stay with it, we discover a presence that isn’t defined by the usual reference points.

Through four guided meditations, Craig invites us into a spacious way of being that isn’t shaped by story or held in place by the past. 

We encourage you to set aside quiet, uninterrupted time to listen, allowing the meditations to unfold in stillness and presence.
