Why You Should Meditate
In this episode, Dassetu answers the question ‘Why Meditate?’ and explains why everyone should meditate. When we first try to meditate, we notice that our mind is all over the place. This experience shows us how little control we have over our mind. Having so little control over our mind is the reason why we experience negative feelings and are not able to be happy. Meditation is more than just a fun way to relax, it is essential if we want to experience our deepest wish which drives our day-to-day life – the wish for lasting happiness and freedom from painful feeling.
Guided Meditation – The Space of the Mind
This is a 15-minute guided meditation in which we turn our attention to the space of the mind – the domain where thoughts, images, memories, and feelings arise. When we are experiencing crippling anxiety, stress, depression, and other strong negative emotions, it is easy to become overwhelmed and can seem impossible to gain control over our mind. It’s time to realise our power as the agent, the ‘thinker,’ and learn to gain control over our mind and our emotions, instead of them having control over us.
