Meditation: Choose Your Path, No Pressure Required
New guided meditation: The Miracle of Existence. "Sometimes (the meditation) gets wildly interrupted by pterodactyls or accidental bell ringing or something, but that’s usually how it goes. So, remember, with the guided meditation, it’s all an invitation. You don’t have to do any part of it. If you just want to sit here and ignore the whole thing, and just because you want to sit in a group, great—as long as you’re quiet and still, you’re welcome to come meditate with us. Another option is to go as far along with it as you like, and then when you get a spot that feels right, but you don’t want to go any further, then just stay there. Or you can tough it out and go all the way to the end of the guidance—whatever you’d like. So, that’s how this works."
