The Weight Of Our Attention

The root of the biblical word for honor comes from the word weight- it also can connote glory, respect, distinction, and importance. Where we place the weight of our attention determines much in navigating our path. Please enjoy this mindfulness practice.

Update: I randomly returned to this two years later, having nearly forgotten how terrific it is. It truly is a masterful session delivered by a gifted practitioner.

At one point, it is suggested that we consider “thanking our minds for trying to make us happy.”

This is emblematic of the sort of fresh, simple profundity from Mark that I so deeply appreciate. I’d never considered such a thing, yet it’s an optimal way to see the monkey mind—an ally, racing from what’s no longer, to what’s not yet materialized, to protect us, and to satisfy our human conditioning.

The pacing, the wide-open spaces, and the remarkably well-suited, lower-volume-in-the-mix background music all work to make this a favorite.

Initial review: There is solid, superior instruction here. An especially effective aspect is the teacher’s inquiry/thought-experiment re: “…how do we want our minds to be?” It’s a fine question that can assist with clarifying matters—or, at the very least, moving in that direction.

This meditation felt like hearing harp music in the distant and walking toward it, a butterfly sharing the journey with me, cool grass on my bare feet, a soft breeze on my skin, sunshine between the leaves on a tree. Thank you for creating and sharing this beautifully guided meditation, Mark, inviting my mind to rest in contemplation, peace and gratitude.

Hey my friend, that was an absolute delight. One of my favourites 🙏

A beautiful little meditation… Mark has a soothing voice and is a deep thinker. This is a very sweet piece to contemplate to, or to fall asleep to.

Good space and gentle guidance
