This interview with Ray and Tara explores how to work with the deepest challenges of sickness, old age and death.

You'll learn how Ray and Tara are working with Ray's diagnosis of glioblastoma a year ago. They speak beautifully of how the practice deepens, how to find steadiness and how to open again and again to love.

The talk explores some fundamentals of a meditation practice and how (sometimes) saying 'yes' to what is present can dramatically shift your relationship to the here and now.

You'll learn my favorite definition of mindfulness, the art of 'saying yes,' how every 'no' actually means yes - and the classic instructions to more intimately deepen your mindfulness practice.

The classic teaching "Be Here Now" requires that we "Let Go Now" - of everything and anything that is not present. How do we do this?

You'll learn about research currently being done, a bit on the history of psychoactive substances in the west, what happens when we alter our consciousness and some of the very real precautions when exploring these medicines.

Please note that I urge extreme caution regarding this topic. While there can be profound insights in the wise and regulated use of plant medicines under the care of professional and skilled guidance, there is no substitution for a regular meditation practice, affliction with like-minded people and having access to wise and compassionate guidance in the arena of spiritual awakening.

Given these wild times, it's more important than ever to find ways to keep your practice rich and engaged.
