Talk: Reframing Distraction In Meditation

This talk is from an in-person Buddhist Recovery Circle workshop titled "Deepening Meditation in Buddhist Recovery." The talk asks us to consider "distractions" in meditation as sensory inputs from what the Buddha noted as our six senses, including the mind. The question explored is this: "Are these sensory inputs outside of our mindful awareness, intruding upon it? Or are they a natural part of our experience in mindful awareness?"
