Solitude

All states of mind are workable. Get to know them, make them your friends not your enemy or something to run from, and they loose their power.

I have a new podcast is up. Called “Behind The Thoughts,” it is for those who would like to start meditating, have sat once or twice but find it hard to keep going, are wondering what meditation is all about, and are lacking a supportive community. Broadcasting two or three times a week, each episode will include a short meditation time, or hit the pause button and meditate for longer.

You can find the podcast on my website. If you have any requests for subjects to cover, just let me know.

Thank you and I hope that you enjoy the podcast.

Full moon over Portland.
