- Beginning Meditation
We give you instruction in the foundational practice of shamata, or calm-abiding meditation. This is THE trailhead to the path of meditation according to the Buddhist tradition.
But, as you’ll hear, one needn’t be a Buddhist to enjoy the benefits of this profound and life-changing practice. The only prerequisites are the belief that we can be better than we are today, and the diligence of keeping up a consistent, daily practice.
With this episode, you’ll have everything you need to get started.Support the show

Click here for some “first-aid” style practices that may help to calm the mind in moments of acute anxiety. But be aware: these are NO substitute for the armor of pervasive tranquility which can be established through one’s daily practice of meditation.
