Daily Meditation Recordings, with Sophie Boyer – Week of May 13, 2024

Sophie Boyer

Sophie Boyer

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

 

Please note that, due to a technical issue, the video and audio in the Monday – Thursday recordings are not synced with each other. Unfortunately this cannot be corrected. You may prefer to listen to the sessions without watching the screen if this is distracting 😊.

 

This week’s topic is “Trust the Process“.

 

There is a natural space that is always available to us. A space before thoughts, before duality.

 

Every day there will be an opportunity to come back to this primary experience that is safe and complete. A space before the beginning.

 

This week let’s trust the process together.
