This is the begining of self-discovery. This is the begining of understanding self, self-discipline and learning that finding things that are centered around happiness and pleasure is not really the way to finding contentment and happiness.

In this first week, Emily walks through becoming aware of what makes her suffer, and how awareness is key to understanding, knowledge and eventually change and growth.

Understanding that the pleasure seeking activities, comfort centered goals, and routines are the basis for our suffering is a difficult concept to understand. But once it is understood, we begin to have moments of pure contentment where we can exhale and feel relief from our burdens and suffering. These moments are the start of understanding the importance of the current moment, the truth of uncertainty and impermanence, and the strength that comes in groundlessness.

This is a 10 Minute Guided Meditation with a focus on breath, introducing meditation and the practice of mindfulness. This meditation is guided by Emily Strunk, with background music provided by Benjamin Stone, Album titled Prairie Meditations.

This week we explore what groundlessness means, and how to cope with change, impermanence and our stress in daily living. Emily talks about how she learned to understand that the truth is, we do not have control and nothing will last.

The background music in this session is provided by Benjamin Stone and the album Prairie Meditations.

Emily introduces the concept of mindfulness and shares her own experiences of discovering awareness in the present moment. What does mindfulness mean? How does one begin the process of developing mindfulness? These questions are investigated here, and a new beginning in mindfulness can begin.
