Daily Life Practice - Making Lunch

Applying that open, non-conceptual awareness and coming back from being lost in thought to the simple activities involved in making lunch. Experiencing how this practice fosters a richer experience and a greater sense of aliveness.

Special Practice - Music

An example of a special mindfulness practice we can do - engaging in an activity we're interested in and do often, as a way to come back to this moment, again and again. In this case, listening to and playing music.

Aware, Free, And Beneficial - Sitting Practice

A daily practice - "sitting there, being aware" - to become more aware of what's going on in the moment, to be able to come back from being lost in thought, and to cultivate a non-conceptual awareness.
