Sophie Boyer

We’re delighted to have Sophie Boyer guiding our Daily Meditation sessions this week. May they bring peace and depth to your practice.

 

This week’s theme is: The Fruits of Attention

 

What difference does a simple reorientation of attention do to this moment? How will it condition what comes next?

 

Every day this week there will be an opportunity for the fruits of attention to be revealed such as care, generosity, and morality.

 

Let’s explore this together.
