In this episode, David explores the roots of people pleasing and how it ties into Buddhist teachings on attachment and the need for approval. He shares insights on recognising this behaviour and offers practical ways to cultivate inner confidence and self-worth, freeing ourselves from the cycle of external validation.

In this meditation, David guides us in a compassion practice through the metaphor of a candle flame in darkness. This practice helps us to connect with our compassionate nature, and feel grounded, supported and motivated to remain a light amid the world's troubles.

In this episode, David shares the classic Buddhist parable of the 'anger-eating demon' and some ways of interpreting this story, and approaching our difficult emotions and experiences in a different way for greater wellbeing and ease in daily life.

This is a guided meditation designed to help you start your day with mindfulness, a sense of grounded presence, and by thinking ahead and reflecting on how you wish to show up for yourself and others in the day ahead. Prepare yourself to move through the day with purpose and positivity.
