The Power of a New Year’s Resolution

With Christopher Titmuss recorded on January 5, 2020.

Found our teachings useful? Help us continue our work and support your teachers with a donation. Here’s how.

We start a new year. It is 2020.

Perhaps the intensity of environmental dramas in 2019 finally made clear to many people the vulnerabilities to life on Earth.

It might be useful to make a New Year’s resolution that lasts longer than a week.

Here are four considerations.
1. Dedicate an hour a day or seven hours a week expressing concerns about the eco-crisis.
2. Practice to be free from living in hope and fear
3. Attend a retreat or two for renewal, confidence and the capacity to act.
4. Meditate and reflect on the Timeless to free up the whole being.

Join Christopher in this session to explore these suggestions in more depth.

  • Daily Meditation Recordings, with Ayala Gill – Week of March 18, 2024

    This week’s topic is “Love’s Flavours and Flow”. Love never leaves us. It’s already here in each thought, sight, taste, smell, sound, sensation and movement. Love is already here, resting beside each pain, celebrating each delight and expanding into the great unknown with infinite patience and warmth. Love effortlessly flows into giving and receiving, and mysteriously radiates in wordless Being. Love’s presence is known in the moment we choose to recognise, allow and participate in the dance of its ongoing flavours and flow.

  • Daily Meditation Recordings, with Jaya Rudgard – Week of October 3, 2022

    This week’s theme is “The Practice of Courage in Everyday Life”

    Courage is an essential quality in life and on the spiritual path and it comes in many guises. Anything that challenges our unhelpful habits requires a capacity for determination and the stretching of our comfort zones. This week’s morning meetings will reflect on some of the ways we can cultivate courage in meditation and daily life and resource ourselves to meet the challenges of living in these times.
