First published on January 30, 2023, this is the third talk in a replay of a series of four mindfulness talks by Don Thompson. There will be one more talk in this series: Mindfulness of Thoughts.
Embark on a transformative expedition into the heart of your emotional landscape, uncovering the subtle nuances between primary and secondary emotions, and learning the art of emotional mindfulness. As your guide, I'll share insights influenced by the profound work of Carl Jung and the timeless wisdom of Buddhist philosophy, promising you a journey toward emotional wholeness. Together, we'll dissect the layers of our feelings, understanding how unchecked cascading emotions can lead to delusion, and how to harness them towards cultivating compassion and equanimity.
This episode isn't just about emotional intelligence; it's about embracing the full spectrum of our emotional experiences with loving awareness and kindness. Through guided meditations, we'll practice labeling and understanding our feelings, transforming the way we relate to them. Notice the shift in your own emotional tides as we learn to become the sky behind the clouds — constant, open, and free. I invite you to join me in this intimate exploration, where the end goal is a more balanced, present, and emotionally attuned self.
