Sometimes life floats along without us paying attention – we’re busy going somewhere, getting something, being on autopilot.
When something big happens it can wake us up and make us realise what is truly important.
It can also bring us closer to a feeling of common humanity. That we share a basic longing for being fully alive, for love and freedom.
In this week’s session I'll be talking about how we can turn current global events into a chance to connect with this common humanity in a way that can create positive change.

The Power of Letting Go. In life, stuff happens, then it disappears.
Your childhood, your breakfast, cassette tapes, relationships.
The only thing we can be sure of is that things change and end.
It’s part of the reality of our human existence.
In this week’s session we look at how we deal with this reality. We explore ways of relating to it that help us to live from a place of more freedom.

How often do we say, ‘I’ve had a bad day’, or ‘I’ve had a good day’?
We mostly judge this by the amount of negative thoughts and feelings we have.
This is because we consider difficult thoughts and feelings to be bad which is a major part of our suffering.
What if we could bring compassion to our human experience so that no days are judged as being ‘bad’?
In this week’s session we will learn the three steps for experiencing all that life brings us with less suffering and more ease.
We will also do a grounding, calming guided meditation.
Calm Your Mind Session 17
Tame the emotional dragon!
It’s hard for us not to want to get rid of our emotional dragons. The fear, the shame, the anger.
The truth of life is that they will keep appearing. It’s a fundamental part of being human. However, this doesn’t mean we have to suffer from them so much.
In reality, it’s not what’s happening - the rising emotion - but how we relate to it that causes the suffering.
In Tuesday’s session we look at how by relating to our emotional experience with mindfulness and compassion, we can turn our dragons into mice that come and go without bothering us so much.
Join us as we explore how we can step out of this battle so that we can be more at peace even in stressful times.
We will also do a grounding, calming guided meditation.

Be more dog.
What do dogs do in stressful situations that we don’t?
They feel the stress, sure.
They go through the suffering of separation or hunger.
But they don’t go to war with themselves like we do. They feel it and then move on to the next thing.
When we are stressed we have a tendency to fight with ourselves. Judging, criticising, telling ourselves with our thoughts that something is wrong with us.
In this week’s Calm Your Mind session we will explore how we can step out of this battle so that we can be more at peace even in stressful times.
We will also do a grounding, calming guided meditation.
