300. Lesson: Love Is an Ability with Sharon Salzberg Jun 07, 2022

Show notes

When we experience fear, loss, or the hundred other daily stresses inherent in life, it can be easy to retreat inside ourselves until the whole world is just a single point of pain–our pain. Lovingkindness is a practice that, among other things, helps us understand that the path out of loneliness, the cure for fear, is to expand the concern that is normally centered around yourself outward, to include someone else. In this excerpt from her course, Compassionate Resilience, Sharon Salzberg speaks with insight and clarity about the expansion of spirit we call love.

297. A Sandy Hook Mom on Choosing Love and Forgiveness May 28, 2022

Show notes

Ten years ago, Scarlett Lewis’ 6-year-old son Jesse was killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School. In her grief, she stumbled on a note he had written in chalk shortly before his death: “nurturing, healing, and love.” These three words left behind by her son became fuel for her life’s work, the Choose Love Movement. In today’s show – updated from its original airing earlier this year – Jeff and Scarlett discuss how grief transforms us, and how healing is possible through practicing forgiveness.

295. Commusings: Nostalgia Means Our Pain May 24, 2022

Show notes

This week’s missive explores relativity theory within the context of human transience. It may be a bit maudlin in parts, but I have been exploring the Japanese aesthetic concept of wabi-sabi – the delightful sadness that characterizes impermanence. Commusings is our format where we take a moment to think deeply on the topics of spirituality, philosophy, and culture.

We live in a field of infinite energy that's never created nor destroyed; rather, it continues to transmute itself over and over again. You can't deplete abundance. Abundance is everywhere. Today’s lesson is about this field of abundance and our awareness, relation to, and perception of it.

291. Lesson: My Mother Terrifies Me with Byron Katie May 10, 2022

Show notes

Today's episode is an excerpt from the Commune course, The Work of Byron Katie. In this session, Lena recalls a time when her mother was enraged in the car, drinking in the back seat. Katie then walks Lena through her current thoughts around this event and asks for each thought: Is it true? Can you absolutely know that it's true? How do you react, what happens, when you believe that thought? And, who would you be without the thought? These four questions are followed by turning around the thought to experience the opposites of the thought. You watch this full course for free – including access to the worksheets – with a 14-day free trial of Commune Membership. Just go to onecommune.com/trial.
