I really enjoyed hearing about the various ways to experience refuge. As you mentioned several times, my mind shifted to different refuges, but I was glad that you gave a variety of examples, as this helped me to increase my repertoire of refuge options. I can see how these various options could work for different situations in one's life. I will listen again to reinforce the concepts. Thank you!

Wonderful brief talk and great guided meditation.

I sometimes struggle with identifying a refuge when I practice iRest. This practice gave me the leisure to find and explore my refuge and left me with a sense of joy!

It is probably not good that I couldn't think of any. Lots to ponder.
