From Buddhism to Taoism, from Astrology to Platonism, from Medieval Alchemists to Central Asian poets of yore, (and more), this podcast provides an easy way to access the simple meditation and happy life practices developed by the wisest masters to have graced this planet.

Forgiveness - The Health 'Hack' Of The Ancients (10 min) Feb 17, 2019

Show notes

There used to be a belief that illness, trouble in life and what today we might call psychological distress were caused by past or ongoing errors or transgressions against the gods or spirits by the sick person. In those ancient days, the cure for the illness was therefore to seek forgiveness from the gods or the ancestral spirits through prayer or the people involved with these errors or transgressions through ritual. Like many of these ancient techniques, the explanations of old may not accord well with our modern scientific understanding. Nevertheless, there is merit in these ancient practices. In fact, they can serve as an effective method of hacking our brain and our body to achieve improvements in our health or happiness. We are going to employ this principle today in a meditation on forgiveness. One thing to keep in mind is that often these forgiveness meditations need to be repeated sometimes more than once a day, for many days for the full effect to take hold. So consider that as an option for you.

This is a 10 minute version of the Health 'Hack' Forgiveness meditation.

First Chakra - You Are Safe And Secure (60 min) Dec 21, 2018

Show notes

The physical body we can perceive with our senses and our everyday consciousness is not all there is to you. You also have an energetic body. And instability or holding in your energetic body can be the source of many a physical or psychological malady. The energetic body is composed of a series of energetic wheels or "chakras" that follow the line of your spine. Your first chakra lies at the base of your spine. When your first chakra is blocked or out of balance, you may feel fearful or anxious or you may manifest any number of other negative feeling states. Depending on your emotional predispositions, this could appear as anger or irritability, a deep sense of insecurity or worry, even panic or depression. And of course there are the myriad of physical ailments such as problems in the colon, with the bladder, with elimination, or with lower back, leg, or feet (and in men, prostate issues). This meditation will help restore balance and open your first chakra to the ever present flow of healing energy available to all of us at any time.

This is a 60 minute version of the You Are Safe And Secure guided meditation.
