Guided meditation: Making meditation effortless

Come wind down at the end of the work week with open conversation with like-minded folks followed by a guided meditation.

This week I’ll go over some strategies to make meditation easier, using a technique called dynamic concentration that uses alternating sharp focus and relaxed awareness to cut through brain fog and distraction to reveal clear, open awareness.

In these hour and a half sessions, I will guide us through sitting practice on a different theme each week. Themes will include:
- What is your true nature? (hint, you are good)
- Compassion in a world on fire
- Walking meditation in nature
- Meditation for neurodivergent minds: no willpower required
- Digital divide: the importance of in-person

Your instructor:
I’m Lindsay Kriebel, an instructor with Open Heart Sangha. I’ve practiced with Open Heart for going on 5 years, following 10 years of throwing every self-help solution I could find at addiction, depression, and social anxiety. It’s taken me this long to see that complex problems can’t be solved by more overthinking. Simple solutions like developing compassion for myself and others work exactly because they are so basic. When I’m not seeking spiritual realization, I’m a librarian, seeking information for law students at the University of Arizona
