Current Practice Share | Mindful Q&A With Wendy N #32

In this thirty-second installment of the ongoing live series with Wendy Nash inquiring into meditation practice on and off the cushion, we plan to share our current (meditation) practices. Stuff like what they are, for how long we've been doing them, how they are going, why we are doing them, etc., asking each other (specific) questions about our practices.

Wendy brings up lack and worthiness and explores how types of conceit play into this. There is talk of ambiguous loss and how reflecting regularly on loss can help. I mention samatha practice, and Wendy mentions Rob Burbea in light of jhana. Wendy passes on an angle of the second Noble Truth as something somewhat akin to selfing and shares that acknowledging ease from others is at the heart of her metta practice. And actually, by the size and smell of it, during the show, it was likely a sewer pumping truck instead of a trash truck! Of course, we welcome questions about meditation practice before, during, and after the Q&As.
