Orlando: Pain of world events – guided meditation and reflection

In this episode of the Mindfulness Meditation Podcast, we offer a short reflection and a guided meditation recorded at a mindfulness class in Leeds.

I opened the meditation class on Thursday with some brief words of reflection in the wake of the Orlando shootings last weekend.

The practice of mindfulness prompts us to open to suffering. The meditation I led invites you to open to the pain of tragedies in the world as well as the more private pain of each of our personal situations.
