Our Mindful Nature {Formerly The Mindful Minute}
Health & Fitness:Mental Health
With this episode, we begin a new journey together. We will spend the next 5 weeks exploring the Ethics of Meditation.
I find it profoundly poignant that the ethical foundation of meditation is always taught first in Eastern practices and yet is so often saved for 'later' in Western teachings. I confess that I usually assume the ethical teachings are inherent within the practice and have not explicitly taught them in a class setting. Until now.
This is a mistake on my part, and one I look forward to rectifying immediately! My hope is that this will be an insightful series that prompts reflection and curiosity about how these ethical teachings play out in your own life.
The very first ethical foundation is non-violence.
I believe there is no more immediate crisis in our lives than the crisis of violence. It is one that requires our unwavering attention and intention.
As author Deborah Adele writes, “Non-violence asks us to step lightly, do no harm, and honor the relationship we have with the earth, with each other, and with ourselves.”
The teachings of non-violence might seem easily understood on the surface but the subtle implications only continue to deepen as your meditation practice progresses.
Join me for today’s episode of The Mindful Minute as we explore the tenet of non-violence and share in a 20-minute guided meditation.
