Daily Meditation Recordings, with Milla Gregor – Week of July 22, 2024

Milla Gregor

We’re fortunate that Milla Gregor has generously offered to lead our daily meditation sessions for Europe and the UK. Click here to find out more about Milla and to view her other contributions to Sangha Live. Recordings will be posted by the end of the day of the live session.

 

This week’s theme is “Comfort and Discomfort”

 

Comfort and discomfort can show up in practice, as well as in life. In what ways are they interwoven? What assumptions do we make about them that might hold us back from fully engaging? We’ll explore these ideas through meditation and contemplation, to see what can be learned – and liberated – in support of living and practising more freely and fully.
