Daily Meditation Recordings, with Ayala Gill – Week of 03 February, 2025

Ayala Gill

We’re delighted to have Ayala Gill leading our Daily Meditation sessions this week. May they bring depth and joy to your practice.

This week’s theme is: From Suffering To Love

Suffering is a messenger inviting us to include more of this moment with love. Rather than fussing, numbing and fixing, we pause in the midst of reactivity to breathe, come into the body, unhook from stories and feel emotions with love. This allows us to respond to life from love. Suffering returns us to love by showing us what we leave out of its limitless embrace.

Our Dharma Library thrives through collective generosity. Your donation helps sustain this offering for our entire community.

  1. Thank you for your support. While listening to the “receive” session, I had a release of tears, with grief, doubt, and a strong desire for continuing protectiveness. Thank you for saying to not de-value our feelings, to hold them in an ocean of love. Your invitation to the imaginal field resonated within me and brought up resistance, which is the grist for deeper understanding.

  2. Thank you for sharing this Leslie. We will continue to develop the themes that we explored in “Receive” and “Envision” in my Sunday Sangha session on March 16th: “Sangha: You Are Not Alone!” I hope you’re able to join us.
