For today's guided meditation, I will introduce you to a meditation practice known as Metta. It is the Pali word most often translated as "loving kindness". Metta is one of the ten paramis (or virtues) of the Theravadan tradition of Buddhism, and the first of the Four Sublime States (or Brahmaviharas), which also include compassion, empathetic joy and equanimity.
The practice of Metta meditation provides wonderful support to your other awareness practices.
Loving-kindness meditation comes down to your intention – which is to wish ourselves and others happiness and peace.
May we be happy. May we be well. May we be safe. May we be at peace and at ease in the world.
Namaste

In today's episode, I answer the question of "What is The Art of Forgetting all about". I'll explore, from the beginning, where we got our gift for developing memories and where we crossed our wires along the way.
In addition to giving you a feel for what my upcoming book is about, I'll provide you with some exercises you can put to use right away to start to unravel the automatic way in which we go about our lives.
As you work with this episode, think about the things you hold to be true about your friends and loved ones, your co-workers and associates, anyone in your sphere of life. Then think about what you know that people believe to be true about you. And finally, examine the things you hold to be true about yourself.
Please let me know your thoughts about this work and the basic exercises outlined. Post your comments and feedback and join in the conversation.

Today's guest is Tapasyogi Nandhi. Siddhar yogi Nandhi is a visionary, humanitarian, artist, ecstatic chant musician, mystic, author and teacher. Nandhi represents the wisdom of the liberated.
After being initiated through death, Tapasyogi Nandhi, undertook his spiritual journey through penance of yogic discipline (tapas) to attain his wholeness and come to understand a life of purpose. Nandhi spent the initial years through the depth of the spiritual wilderness of South India under the guidance of his Gurus through daily discipline, solitude in caves and pilgrimages while balancing a challenging active world as a householder.
In the next phase, he was guided by his Gurus to come to the West to represent Siddhar consciousness and teach in order to help raise humanity to its pristine goodness.
Nandhi's teachings represent the wisdom of the Masters which has been passed on through an unbroken lineage of Siddhar Gurus for thousands of years. The Siddhars, the mystic yogis, are the enlightened Sages who journey beyond enlightenment. The Siddhars are the mystics of the 'other' spiritual India seldom known to the outside world. The Siddhars utilize yogic techniques to go beyond the limits of the body and mind.
Nandhi was blessed to have Gurus who guided him through this journey of wholeness. His book, Mastery of Consciousness: Awaken the Inner Prophet, is available now on Amazon.com.
You can learn more about him at www.Nandhi.com, or join his Declaration of Consciousness Movement today at http://declarationofconsciousness.com.

Today's guest is Julie Migneault. Julie is best known for catalyzing leaders into their next level of growth, personal fulfillment and contribution. With a real devotion to live from inner truth, Julie supports her clients to explore their inner world so they can lead their lives with greater clarity, confidence and inner peace while making a meaningful impact through their work.
After landing her dream job leading global social responsibility programs at a Fortune 500 Company by the age of 26, Julie found herself feeling surprisingly "off path", like something fundamental was missing in her life. She followed the voice of her heart and left the success and security of her career and began a deep and personal journey of growth, healing, and transformation.
With extensive training and some serious love and devotion, she refined her gifts as a very clear intuitive and energy healer. Combining these gifts with her extensive business acumen and strategic thinking, Julie now works with an international community of powerful leaders to guide them to a place of connection with what's real and meaningful in their own lives and the lives of those they serve.
She can be found at www.LiveFierceLove.com and you can sign up for her FREE 10-Day Inner Challenge here: www.10dayinnerguidancechallenge.com.
