Day 4 | Attention | New Moon | Mindfulness with the Moon

This is day four of a 29 day journey where you will learn the fundamentals of mindful meditation while syncing yourself with the cycles of the moon, the gorgeous feminine mass in our solar system. Begin this podcast on the new moon to follow the cycle that is outlined over the next Synodic month: The harmonization of the movement of both the sun and the moon.

Today we will tune the muscle of the mind, through noticing where we place our attention. As the Buddha says, "We are like tuning an instrument, not too loose, and not too tight." In exploring attention, we find there is a complete connection between our intention, our sense of what matters, and how we pay attention. And when we pay attention to the moment, it actually deepens our contact with our intention of presence, of mindfulness, here and now. Tune into this dharma talk and 20 minute meditation to see what you find.
