I really needed this meditation today. I have lost my family and the grief and guilt is nearly unbearable. However, doing your meditation and finding love for myself, makes it easier for me to show compassion and love to those who have hurt me, unless of course it leads to my oppression.

A meditation that allows us to 'rest in the refuge of the present moment'. A beautiful expression. I especially liked imagining different emotions in degrees or flavours and standing behind a waterfall when we have a torrent of emotions, imaging them in the waterfall cascading down, and away... A beautifully-delivered practice by Stan to which I will give some thought & return to.

Amazing! Made me feel very connected to my core and alive! Without moving! I have a nose warm buzz going on and feel at home within myself now. Just lovely! Thank you!
