Daily Meditation Recordings, with Ulla Koenig – Week of 02 December, 2024

Ulla Koenig

We are grateful to have Ulla Koenig leading our Daily Meditation sessions this week. May these sessions support and deepen your practice.

This week’s theme is: Soothing the Grieving Heart

As human beings we have the privilege to consciously experience many beautiful and joyful things. And we are constantly in touch with the changeability of nature, relationships, our body, hearts, self and much more. Without knowing how to accommodate the naturally arising sadness, change and loss can be easily overwhelming. We will dedicate this week in the darkest time of the year, to open up a compassionate space to explore skillful grieving.

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