Episode Synopsis

Let’s discuss and practice choiceless awareness, a particular meditation state in which we give up control of our attention.

You don’t have to believe that it exists: you just need to experience it for yourself.That said, this work is best suited to people with some experience with meditation, particularly mindfulness or vipassana-style practices. This is a delicate, nuanced art.
