Mindfulness Unveiled: A Guided Meditation with Dr. David Kittay

Let's be aware of those other feelings, maybe not so pleasant feelings, like anxiety, depression, anger, that we usually suppress as we breathe in and as we breathe out: hello, anxiety, my old friend, you're there now. Lets us know that these feelings are separate from us.
Feeling overwhelmed by life's chaos? Dr. David Kittay offers a soothing escape through the four foundations of mindfulness in this episode of 'A Skeptic's Path to Enlightenment'. Dr. Kittay gently guides you through a transformative meditation, starting with mindfulness of the body and breath. You'll learn to identify and release any pain or tension lurking within. Next, the journey moves to mindfulness of feelings, where joy and happiness are nurtured while acknowledging any unwelcome emotions that surface. Dr.
Kittay then takes you into the realm of the mind, encouraging a focus on interconnectedness and the release of cravings and desires. Finally, the meditation culminates in mindfulness of mental objects, where light and compassion are sent to yourself and others. Rooted in Tibetan Buddhist tradition and analytical meditation techniques, this practice aims to foster compassion, self-compassion, and healthy mental habits. Throughout the session, Dr.
Kittay emphasizes embracing all emotions, even the uncomfortable ones, to cultivate a deeper understanding and kindness towards yourself and others. By the end of this episode, you'll feel more connected and grounded, ready to face life's challenges with a compassionate heart.
