So much of our reality is shaped by our interactions and spatial understanding of the world around us. Even as you read this, your brain is aware and making judgments about the distance between the letters and words, the space between your eyes and the screen, and the periphery of your vision. In this meditation we seek to forget that judgement and calculation and embrace the instant space of awareness and consciousness.

What makes a day a "bad day"? Often we are consumed with stress or worries when days do not go our way. In this meditation, we focus on letting of our expectations and negative emotions, and welcoming the everchanging and impartial nature of existence.

We often are confronted with overwhelming negative emotions throughout life. In the space of meditation, we can explore these emotions and learn to allow them to pass by or sit with us. Are these emotions there for any reason, or do they simply arise?

The breath is often the anchor of meditation processes. It keeps us alive from birth until death, yet often we do not give it much attention. In this meditation, we focus on the breath and what it can reveal to us in meditation.

Often we are impatient or anxious and time gets distorted. The seconds pass like minutes or the hours fly away like seconds. Sitting with your breath and experiencing time as the passing of your breath can give you a more real grasp on the passage of time and allow to better move into the moment of now.

Often when we are anxious, overwhelmed, stressed, or fraught with racing thoughts; we may find ourselves stuck. If we feel we are unable to leave, these negative feelings can overstay their welcome. This practice helps you greet these feelings without self-judgment, sit with them without harm, and allow them to leave you in peace and freedom. This 9 minute exercise should be practiced and repeated to help train your mind to deal with anxious and overwhelming thoughts as they appear throughout your life. This is not a quick fix, and should not be used as such. Doing this once or twice will at best have minor results. With continued practice, this exercise has brought me peace, freedom, and control over the time I spend with my anxiety.

Negative emotions will arise in our minds and bodies and can cause us suffering. Often we continue to focus and give attention to this emotion, or we add self-judgement on top of it. This only feeds the fire of suffering that is burning in our awareness. In this meditation, allow yourself to sit near the fire without it consuming you. Allow yourself to snuff it out and feel the cool space of peace and freedom from suffering.

To function in society, we need language, customs, rituals, and systems to allow us to be productive. However, when we come to the space of meditation, we can allow ourselves to let go of these thoughts that overlay our direct sensations and feelings. In this space, much like a newborn who does not yet understand their surroundings, we can truly feel and experience raw sensations without letting them become attached to ourselves.

While guided meditation is a great way to learn new practices and introduce yourself to new meditation concepts; your meditation practice should be your own. This guided meditation helps you learn what to look for and how to grow in the silence of your own time spent experiencing the gifts of consciousness. Repeat this and other practices with and without the guides, and soon you will be able to meditate and gain spiritual and emotional insights of your own.

This quick meditation will help expand your awareness to the universe and out of your day to day perspective.

Today's podcast is not a meditation. This is instead a walk through of visualizing what higher dimensions may look like. This is a creative visual exercise conceived by Rob Bryanton. This is not meant to be taken as science fact or to be an explanation of our universe. It is merely a way to imagine what is outside of our normal 4-dimensional (3 space, 1 time) reality.

Today’s meditation is about using simple truths and rational actions to overcome obsessive thoughts and/or negative thought patterns. Our minds are constantly seeking stasis in a harsh world and many times our negative racing thoughts are simply this act of finding a balance expressed through a mental illness. If you can accept this and see through the pattern to a concrete rational action that will bring you stasis, hope, and/or joy; you can find peace and break through the obsessive negative thoughts.

Dave walks you through a proven stress relief breathing technique 8,4,7. When you are stressed, breathing in for 8 counts (as much you can) holding your breath for 4 counts, and then exhaling for 7 counts (as much as you can). Practicing this breathing pattern will help increase oxygen levels in your body and slow speeding thought patterns.

A guided meditation to help you focus on your experience even in a noisy environment. This was originally going to be a nature meditation; however, the park was busier and louder than usual. I took this as an opportunity to focus on dealing with distractions during meditations and in everyday life.
