Join me for a spacious, guided shamatha (peaceful, or calm-abiding) meditation. During this practice, we explore our bodies, breath, and thoughts and through this exploration, we create space for the present moment. Using a counting technique, we focus on the breath and return to it each time we drift off in thought. Our goal is not to get rid of or clear our thoughts, but rather to embrace them with compassion, acknowledge they are a normal part of practice, and let them simply be.
