The Road Home with Ethan Nichtern

Ep. 106 - The Relationship Between Meditation and Confidence


Listen Later

Ethan begins to explore the themes of his new book by looking at how our meditation practice can help us to work with the crucial and elusive experience of confidence. He explores our attitude of how we enter into the meditation session and engage with our own sense of worthiness as our minds, and our lives, knock us around. How do we learn to "Hold our Seat" in the midst of a messy mind and a world on fire.

Check out all the cool offerings at our sponsor Dharma Moon, including upcoming Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Training starting June 14. Sign up for the free lecture with David Nichtern and Duncan Trussell on "Deepening Your Practice to Teach: The Journey from Meditation Practitioner to Meditation Guide."
