Description

f you practice the Buddhist path (Buddhadharma), it can be easy to fall into a rut and forget the real reasons we practice: to see into the nature of reality, to benefit all living beings, to throw the weight of our being against the systems that perpetuate suffering.  But times like we're living through now (Oct. 2020) remind us that spiritual practice isn't a hobby but a mission.  
If you've been meditating for years but find yourself sometimes overwhelmed by what we're all living through, I'm with you!  I made this video to remind myself (and invite other folks like me) that while I sometimes need to hide and practice self-care, my practice provides tools for coping with the kinds of crazy times we're experiencing now.  For guided meditations, to join my newsletter list, read my blog, and more, please visit clairevillarreal.com.  
? Be well and stay safe out there, y'all.
