Freedom In Turning Attention Inward
by Hugh Byrne
This is a 25-minute talk followed by a short meditation offered at a live Insight Timer session on September 14, 2025. The theme of the talk is that turning our attention inward is a path to the deepest freedom. When we turn towards our present-moment experience with kindness and acceptance and without judgment, we have the opportunity to see where we are stuck, or caught up in suffering. And in seeing where we are stuck or tangled, we have the possibility of getting untangled. Mindfulness allows us to find the space between stimulus and response. That space makes choices available--and with the freedom to choose our response, we can make healthier choices that lead to greater well-being and happiness.
