Shamatha (Relaxation)

Shamatha is the practice of cultivating a calm, clear, and focused mind. In this practice, we cultivate three qualities: relaxation (overcoming tension), stability (overcoming distraction), and clarity (overcoming dullness). The basis of this practice is relaxation. In this session, we establish this basis by focusing on the rhythm of the breath. Next session: Shamatha (Abdomen) - emphasizing stability of attention

A great teacher of Tibetan Buddhism, meditation, works of the minds and has a great voice for guided meditation.

Really calm and relaxed. Enough time without instructions to really practice. And I love your voice and the Australian accent.

Clear, succinct guidance with enough space fo actually go into the practice. Thank you Glen

Great introduction to the technique, and with the other guided techniques it's a blessing supreme

Excellent. All of them. Just the right amount of guidance with no fluff. Thank you.

Really great basic breathing meditation which can be hat'd to find on this app.
