S2 Ep 2: Crouching Tampon, Hidden Plastic

9c. Nature contemplation

Another contemplation designed to help you soften a little more.   You are enmeshed in the natural world, you just need to give it a little thought, a little attention.

9b. Contemplating interdependence

Even though we live on a very populated planet, we can still feel separate, disconnected.   Or we draw lines and place ‘us’ on one side and ‘them’ on the other. This contemplation helps you to see that you are not just connected, you are enmeshed.

8c. Soft words, soft voice meditation

We are hardwired, often socialised as well, to give ourselves a hard time.  This is a function of the brain that is concerned with your survival, though not at all with your happiness. A harsh inner voice is counterproductive to your wellbeing.
