 The Retreat Right Now | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1:01:38

Retreat is when you plant a seed in the fertile ground of mindfulness and attention — with as much tenderness, compassion, patience and open-mindedness as possible — letting go of the compulsion to compare, to analyze, to make conclusions and judgments about yourself and others. It’s amazing how much lighter you become when you let […]

 No News is Good News! | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 1:00:13

When all the stories of the mind are dropped, it’s good news. We’re constantly talking to ourselves, constantly thinking — until we’re awake, fully present, and not interfering.
