Author and Mindful Reality founder, Jill Eng, shares her powerful awareness on how to relieve emotional pain and stress by explaining why it is we are always doing the most we can do. Her poignant expressions promote mental ease by illuminating how actions do themselves via the momentary movements of our body, so we can stop believing thoughts that make us feel like we need to figure out how to make our life happen. These are bite-sized recordings (perfect for a lunch break or quick walk) from her blog on this mindful, nondualistic, self-inquiry practice that overlaps with Buddhism, Advaita Vedanta, the work of Byron Katie, meditation and naturalism. Jill was also a professional modern dancer, and is an Alexander Technique teacher. Mindful Reality stems from an assimilation of her experience in all these fields.
