This guided meditation explores the third foundation of mindfulness—awareness of mind states. We bring kind, steady attention to thoughts, emotions, and moods, while gently investigating our relationship to them. Seeing how mindfulness can know these experiences without being defined by them, the practice opens space, clarity, and a more compassionate way of relating to the mind.

A meditation on finding comfort in the simple goodness of this moment, followed by a talk about feeling alone with the task of being ok in the world, followed by a meditation to locate the comfort and care that reassures us that it's safe to let go.
