In this episode, Kathy explores meditation and the concept of dissociation that can sometimes get confused with the equanimous feeling during the practice. She touches on why dissociation happens and the dangers of spiritual bypassing when we adopt a "meditative attitude" towards difficult topics, discomfort or pain that one may experience in the present moment.
