Practical Transcendence
#3 I Hear It Feelingly
In today's podcast, we discuss expanding meditative practice using sound and feeling. A spiritual path can become stagnant on the cushion, and engaging with somatic awareness can renew the flow and provide the ground for the consistent experience of transcendent states.
We link the neuroscience of safety and connection to the importance of moving practice beyond the thinking mind into the magic of acoustics and direct contact with nature, becoming Buddhas with muddy feet!
