Name: 45 minute Choiceless Awareness Meditation for MBSR by InsightLA
Duration: 45 min

Let yourself think of someone you care about. Picture them, remember them, see them in your mind's eye or hold them in your heart. Imagine their happiest moment as a child. Then begin to wish them well: "May you be joyful. May you remember the child of spirit that was born in you. May your joy increase. May the causes for happiness and joy grow stronger in your life." Then imagine this person wishing the same for you.

Joy (Mudita) Meditation - Jack Kornfield

Spiritual bypassing is a tendency to use spiritual ideas and practices to sidestep or avoid facing unresolved emotional issues, psychological wounds, and unfinished developmental tasks.

Spiritual Bypassing - Part 1

Learn to let go and dissolve your discomfort by diving into the cool, cleansing water of pure experience and now-ness. By bringing your attention first to the breath, and then to the whole body, Dr. Christiane Wolf expertly guides your awareness from the physical, to the emotional, to the mental, before opening up into boundless -- and choiceless -- awareness. A powerful way to access your inner Sky-Mind. "Watching thoughts...Let them go. Watch them like clouds move through the sky...The sky is not bothered by the clouds."
