Gentleness and Tenderness - Part 1

Gentleness and Tenderness How do we meet ourselves when life feels difficult? In this drop-in meditation class, we explore gentleness and tenderness—the willingness to soften, listen, and make room for what we feel. An invitation to bring a little less judgment and a little more warmth to our experience, just as it is.

This meditation and teaching, inspired by Pema Chödrön’s When Things Fall Apart, explores how we can meet fear without suppressing it, escaping from it or allowing it to control us. Rather than trying to conquer fear, we practise coming closer—feeling it in the body, staying curious and discovering the spacious awareness in which fear can be held.

A guided Red Tara Practice

A spontaneous reading of a guided meditation by Tara Brach, using the RAIN practice with pain. I find this meditation deeply helpful and wanted to share it with you. It offers a gentle way of meeting pain with awareness, kindness, and space, rather than resistance. May it be of support to you.
