Namo Myoho Renge Kyo
I devote myself to the Mystic Law of the Lotus Sutra.

This mantra encapsulates the teachings of the Lotus Sutra by Gautama the Buddha, given towards the end of his life. The message of this mantra is that we all carry the state of Buddhahood within our own hearts. Chanting this mantra opens us to our supreme and innate Buddha Nature.

The Biggest Obstacle To Mindful Living

It is with great pleasure that I share with you the second masterclass with Tara Brach, following on from Tara's presentation on 'How To End The Trance of Unworthiness &amp; Move Through Fear' during the Mindfulness Summit in 2015.

Tara Brach is as an internationally recognised meditation teacher and clinical psychologist, and founder of the Insight Meditation Community of Washington, DC (IMCW). She has practiced and taught meditation for over 35 years and successfully published two bestselling meditation and spiritual awakening books, True Refuge and Radical Acceptance. Her podcasts are also downloaded over one million times per month, which is a real testament to her work and ongoing commitment to helping us live with more peace and ease.

During this masterclass we speak about one of the things that can really hold us back from wholehearted living, and that thing is fear - the fear we’re not enough, we won’t be loved and that we’re not worthy. Tara’s relates to this as the 'Trance of Unworthiness', and illustrates how it can hold us back from being the person we want to be and the life we want to live.

Also shared in this masterclass is Tara’s personal story of how she’s had to self-nurture through feelings of unworthiness, even after publishing Radical Acceptance.

Have you ever noticed that the moments when your ‘buttons are pushed’ or when you’re most reactive is when you’re in communication with other people? It’s certainly true for me. Would you like to be less reactive and more skillful and loving in the way you speak and listen? This is what this masterclass is all about!

During this masterclass Florence Meleo-Meyer teaches us a skill called ‘Insight Dialogue’, which is a form of mindful communication. It’s a skillset that brings the tranquility and insight from meditation directly into our interactions with others - giving us the capacity to be more skillful, kind, loving and authentic in our communication with family, friends, co-workers.

Florence is the Director of the Train-the-Trainer program of the Oasis Institute for Mindfulness-Based Professional Education and Training, and has taught meditation for over 30 years. She is certified as a Siddha Yoga meditation teacher as well as a senior MBSR (Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction) teacher. Florence holds degrees in education and psychotherapy and is a licensed family therapist.

I’m sure you will find this interview with Florence an incredible support in your ongoing journey into mindful living. Enjoy!
