    How much of our energy is not here? This week Jon points out that even asking the question recovers some of that energy, and brings us back into present moment; and suggests that waking up really happens only when the mind truly realizes it has never been in control.

  • Tuning In

    When we’ve had enough of thinking about spirituality, what’s left? Jon recommends we take the opportunity stillness offers to really tune into our experience beyond simply thinking about it; encourages us to discover life directly through feeling and sensing; and suggests that wisdom is truly revealed when we stop perceiving through our heads and instead live from the heart.

  • Falling Awake

    How often are we in the way of what’s happening?

Recorded 6/28/2010 in San Francisco.
