The Why and How of Practice with Joseph Goldstein - Insight Hour Podcast Ep. 183

Joseph Goldstein dissects the concept of meditation from the what, to the why, to the how.
This dharma talk was recorded on July 8, 2007, at the Insight Meditation Society and was originally published on Dharma Seed.
“Meditation is not about whether it’s pleasant or unpleasant. It’s about how aware we are, how mindful we are.”
In this talk, Joseph:
Demystifies meditation
Asks, “Why do we meditate?” and “How do we meditate?”
Emphasizes the importance of settling down the mind to achieve real clarity and stillness
Reminds us that meditation is not only about blissful feelings
Identifies the relationship between our bodies and our minds
Advocates for the acceptance and awareness of our own thoughts

I need to learn this. I have a friend who practices and I always ask how. I am a person filled with anxiety. I have the motivation I just can’t keep my mind there. I guess that’s why it takes practice. Thank you for sharing. ❤
