Daily Meditation Recordings, with Zohar Lavie – Week of January 22, 2024

Zohar Lavie

We’re fortunate that Zohar Lavie has generously offered to lead our daily meditation sessions this week. To find out more about Zohar, 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.

 

This week’s topic is “Liberating Care: A Path of Kindness, Compassion and Well-being”

 

The Buddha recommended radiating goodwill to all beings. This requires us to deepen our connection and sensitively empathise with everyone. Which immediately invites well-being to our whole being. When a well-nourished heart encounters suffering, compassion blossoms. And this journey of awakening begins to liberate pain, born of separation, into interwoven joy.

    Daily Meditation Recordings, with Shireen Jilla – Week of 05 October, 2026

    This week’s theme is: How Insecure Can We Be And Still Hold it Together . The conventional mind can be a relentless self-critic creating contraction and separation, sapping our energy and availability to life. It limits our spacious response and connection. Somatic intimacy with our vulnerability brings awareness beyond our reflex personal storytelling of fear, self judgment and pity. We open to spacious compassion, love and connection.
