Start Close In

Cara and Erin read the poetry of David Whyte with the music of Daniel Kobialka providing a soundscape for the poem “Start Close In”. This poetry meditation provides a wonderful reflection on the act of engaging in meditation itself and guidance on what is helpful in that endeavor.

Letting Go and Let It Be

Erin and Cara share a meditation with music on “Letting Go” and invite you to take ten minutes to experience this gentle mediation written by Jack Kornfield. Jack is a one of the leading Buddhist teachers in America, and one of the key teachers to introduce mindfulness and insight meditation to the West. We are deeply grateful for his teachings and the compassion evident in his presence.
