Description

In this episode I explore how to work with physical pain both in our formal practice and in our daily lives. I reference Maslow's hierarchy of needs as a framework for helping us understand why meditation can be difficult when we're in physical pain. Two resources that may be helpful if you're working with physical pain is this post from Tara Brach and this article from Shinzen Young

A weekly podcast exploring early Buddhist teachings and how they apply to 21st century life. Kate Spina is trained to share Buddhist teachings in the Theravada lineage. IG: @towardlight108www.towardlight.netinfo@towardlight.netToward Light is committed to continuing the tradition of the Buddha by making Early Buddhist teachings accessible to all who are interested in them. We offer multiple tools to help people cultivate and maintain a meditation practice and a spiritually-oriented life. Toward Light was founded to fill a gap in Early Buddhist meditation offerings, which have often been passed down through patriarchal lineage, and do not always take feminist and 21st century perspectives into account.
