Here is offer a guided meditation inviting us into three stages of mindfulness of the breath: The breath, calming the body and mind, and finding joy in a smile. (Based loosely of the work of Ven. Thich Nhat Hnan) We then take our heartfelt exploration to the sensate experience of the body and sounds. Just in the same way that the word water cannot quench out thirst, the concepts of the body and sound inhibit our connection with life. A practice such as this one can help us sidestep that very common pitfall, and bring us closer to the actual experience of life itself.

Here I offer a guided meditation designed to allow one to connect to their resistances toward Joy. When we can see these resistances clearly, we may be able to hold compassionate space for them, and eventually they no longer inhibit our innate capacity for joy, gratitude, and appreciation. We then soak in the Joy, allowing the nervous system to marinade in the felt experience of Joy, which can help this passing state eventually become a permanent trait.
