This talk continues an ongoing review of the Mindfulness of Breathing Discourse, focusing on the hindrance of Aversion and Ill-Will. Allie Vaknin describes the characteristics of aversion in a way that is not only effective for spiritual development, but can be beneficial for not being hooked by anger or fear, mindfully noticing and disregarding aversive self-talk, focusing instead on identifying and letting go of the physical tensions associated with aversion and ill-will. She also emphasizes the value of cultivating lovingkindness to counter the negativity of the hindrance.
