In this practice, we make use of the RAIN technique (Recognize, Allow, Investigate, Nurture) to inquire into the parts of ourselves that feel unforgivable. By uncovering deep beliefs and their underlying, unmet needs, we begin to find a natural compassion for ourselves. Compassion that opens the possibility of self-forgiveness and freedom from guilt and shame.

A framework for Mindfulness practice that makes use of the metaphor of two arrows in order to explain the difference between pain and suffering, and help up reduce the amount of psychological suffering we create for ourselves.
The first arrow represents the inevitable pain of life.
The second arrow represents psychological pain that we add unnecessarily to the first arrow. This is suffering, Dukkha, which can increasingly be avoided through Mindfulness practice.

In this meditation we let the contents of consciousness drop to the background and allow awareness to become aware of itself.
This type of practice is sometimes referred to as Samatha without an object, Big sky mind or Choiceless awareness.

A framework for Mindfulness practice that makes use of the metaphor of a bird with two wings in order to explain key aspects of Mindfulness and how to train them.
We use meditation practice to cultivate Insight (see through delusions),
We use contemplation practice to cultivate Love (re-framing),
We use movement practices to learn to flow between them (integration).

By shifting to a feeling of gratitude for what we have right now, we shift away from a sense of lack and open up a portal to happiness in the present moment.
In this clip, we explore the many reasons to cultivate the attitude of gratitude. When we feel grateful, we get a surge of happiness-inducing neurotransmitters and we build a habit of feeling fulfilled.
"It is not happiness that makes us grateful, it is gratefulness that makes us happy" - David Steindl-Rast
