Still Now - Improving Mental & Emotional Health Through Meditation & Spiritual Practice

Many people through meditation come to the understanding that the future and past don't exist, and yet their chronic anxiety seems to remain. In this talk I discuss what anxiety is, some common approaches to the recovery from anxiety, why anxiety remains so persistent despite our sincere and best efforts to overcome it and finally propose a solution to rid yourself of anxiety for good. I cover...

This episode is on some very common distractions from finding true Presence, primarily Guilt, Regret and Nostalgia, I have some tips on overcoming each.

*Don't Forget To Subscribe* So there are a couple of spiritual questions raises by the dawning of Artificial Intelligence, but not enough to warrant a full episode. I love this subject so wanted to discuss some thoughts and predictions on the whole thing, as usual everything is always very down about the whole thing but personally I think good things are coming.

How can one be at peace with oneself while there is still such terrible suffering in the world? A very valid question that poses quite the conundrum for those wishing to truly go 'all the way' through the gateless gate.

"The cure for pain is in the pain" - Rumi On the spiritual path it is common to hit some turbulence when emotional pain surfaces. It can interrupt our practice and interfere with our peace. With some intuition, patience and understanding it is even possible to use this pain to deepen presence and insight. Pain does not have to be a hindrance to awakening, in fact, it is the very signal t...

It is common to worry about the effect that staying fully present will have on friendships and social interactions. If we are fully present how can we continue to have conversations and interact with people? Can we continue as we once were with our friends? Most find that ultimately all friendships and social interaction is improved and deepened, a sense of connectedness and love replaces the usua...

Waking at night doesn't have to be an ordeal, utilising the calm and serene space to do some deep relaxation and breathing can actually result in a healthier and more restful time than sleep itself. Come join me by the fire and let's relax until we feel ready to sleep again. My Sincere apologies for the ads on my guided meditations, I havn't monetised the channel it's just the way...
