Podcasts about Impermanence

Ever find yourself desperate to label a moment—good or bad, success or failure, right or wrong—just to feel a little more in control?This episode will challenge that instinct.We're unpacking one of the most powerful mindset shifts I've ever come across—rooted in ancient wisdom, backed by modern psychology, and grounded in something we all face: uncertainty.You'll hear how a simple phrase—“Maybe, maybe not. We'll see.”—can rewire your response to the unknown, help you ride the waves of change with more peace, and keep you anchored when life feels like a lot.We're also diving into a surprisingly effective gratitude boost (hint: it's not a list) and a 3-step reflection to help you find clarity when the future feels foggy.This isn't about toxic positivity.It's about perspective, presence, and progress—even when the path ahead isn't clear.Let's stop labeling and start living.Because maybe… just maybe… this moment is leading somewhere beautiful.BTW—You can choose your adventure with this one—read the article, listen to the episode, or explore both.

Equanimity isn't just a buzzword; it's a mental fortress. It's the art of letting experiences—both the sweet and the bitter—arrive and depart without shaking our inner calm. Just like a chocolate craving that pulls at our desires, attachment disrupts our peace.  But what if we could observe that craving like clouds passing through the sky?  To help listeners cultivate a deeper sense of equanimity, Margaret introduces a guided meditation that encourages acceptance of all beings and thoughts—pleasant and unpleasant alike. This practice emphasizes seeing thoughts as transient clouds, promoting a healthier relationship with both our positive and negative experiences. Throughout the episode, you'll be inspired to reflect on your own responses to life's challenges and the importance of nurturing a balanced mind.

In this session, spiritual director John Bruna offers a talk on subtle impermanence.

This episode is all about understanding the sacred space of the heart where our humanity shines in its most authentic form.Here are the reflective questions to process:What roles do you play in your life that allows for genuine connection with others? How can you bring more vulnerability and unity into your everyday relationships?Three things you'll learn today: 1. The Healing Power of Vulnerability:Pope Francis poignantly points out that hospitals often reveal the truest essence of who you are. When faced with illness or injury, you shed your facades and recognize your shared humanity. You learn that vulnerability can lead to healing—not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually as well.2. Unity in DiversityIn the reflective words, you witness the beauty of diversity coming together in seemingly impossible scenarios. Imagine a homophobe being saved by a gay doctor—a poignant reminder that love and care transcend our labels and biases. This inspires you to break down barriers in your own lives and advocate for unity across different backgrounds.3. The Impermanence of LifeYou are encouraged to focus on what truly matters in your limited time on this planet. You should embrace love over judgment, time spent with loved ones over unnecessary material pursuits, and moments of genuine connection over societal expectations.

“We do know that no person can be saved except through Christ. We do not know that only those who know Him can be saved by Him.” C.S. Lewis John 14:1-14 (when Jesus says He is the Way, He is not identifying gatekeeping rules that even He must obey as our Lord; He is telling us that He picks the Way) #IC 20: Reading 'Chapter and Verse' on What I Don't Believe (7/20/10) #IC 61: Impermanence of Time (6/27/11) Mere Christianity    

Join me in today's episode as we explore the profound teachings of Buddhism on navigating loss, grief, and uncertainty, especially in the wake of environmental disasters. I sit down with renowned zen mindfulness teacher and author, Deborah Eden Tull, who shares her harrowing experience of losing her home and nearly her life during Hurricane Helene. Eden reflects on the concept of impermanence, the power of community, and the balance between gentle and fierce compassion. We delve into the collective challenges we're facing and how to find stability and love in the midst of chaos. Whether you're dealing with personal transitions or simply seeking wisdom, this conversation is a beacon of hope and resilience.About Eden:Deborah Eden Tull, founder of the nonprofit Mindful Living Revolution, is Zen meditation/mindfulness teacher, author, and spiritual activist.

She teaches dharma intertwined with post-patriarchal thought and practices, resting upon a lived knowledge of our unity with the more than human world. She also facilitates The Work That Reconnects, as created by Buddhist scholar Joanna Macy. Eden has been practicing meditation for the past 30 years and teaching for over 20 years.

Today's poem is Milestone 2 (We Laugh About the Weather, Its Impermanence) by Divya Victor. The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Major writes… “I wish us not to slide over each other's lives, but there are limits to becoming too familiar. What if the conversation is not well-intentioned, but packed with assumptions, or worse? I thought as much reading today's poem, one where the speaker themself is silent, subject not only to a barrage of trapping questions, but also to the weight of their own journey.” Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

En novembre 2024, j'ai vécu une expérience hors du temps : 10 jours en silence, 100 heures de méditation, sans distractions. Pas de téléphone, pas d'écriture, pas de contacts extérieurs… Juste moi face à moi-même.Depuis deux ans, tout s'accélère. Développer mon activité de formatrice podcast, publier un épisode de podcast chaque semaine, accompagner, communiquer… Je m'accorde peu de pauses, peu d'espace juste pour moi. Pourtant, ces espaces profonds m'appellent, insistent, demandent à être explorés.Alors j'ai choisi d'arrêter. De me déposer. De voir ce que je fuyais.Je n'avais aucune attente, seulement une intention : me retrouver, me reconnecter. Ce voyage intérieur a été plus intense que prévu… J'ai cru devenir folle, et pourtant…Dans cet épisode, je partage à chaud mon vécu, mes émotions brutes, mes prises de conscience. Un témoignage authentique, enregistré quelques heures après la fin de cette retraite Vipassana.J'ai notamment découvert la force de l'impermanence. Tout passe. Les douleurs, les pensées, les émotions… Rien ne dure éternellement. Cette prise de conscience m'a portée à travers les moments difficiles. Alors si tu lis ces lignes et que tu traverses des difficultés, sache que ça aussi, ça passera.Dans le silence, des graines ont pris racine en moi. Je vous en partage quelques éclats, tandis que je veille à celles qui poursuivent leur croissance.À écouter avec le cœur.En gratitude pour cette expérience, j'espère que ce partage vous touchera.MettaC'est quoi Vipassana ?Vipassana est une méthode de méditation ancestrale qui permet une profonde transformation intérieure par l'observation de soi.Découverte par Bouddha et popularisé par S.N. Goenka, cette technique méditative invite à observer profondément ses sensations corporelles pour développer la pleine conscience, l'équanimité et comprendre l'impermanence de toute chose.Pendant 10 jours de silence, sans téléphone, sans lecture, sans contact avec les autres, on plonge en soi-même.Cette méthode repose sur trois piliers :Sīla (moralité) : poser un cadre éthique pour apaiser l'esprit.Samādhi (concentration) : stabiliser son attention grâce à la respiration (Anapana).Paññā (sagesse) : voir la réalité telle qu'elle est, au-delà des illusions du mental.Ce voyage au cœur du silence est une confrontation avec soi-même, un retour à l'essentiel, une opportunité d'observer ses conditionnements mentaux et d'ouvrir la voie vers une paix profonde.Référence :Épisode 99.

Drawing on Buddhist teachings and personal insights, Margaret invites listeners to reflect on the tumultuous nature of modern life and how we can navigate it with grace and wisdom. As she examines the challenges posed by political division, she emphasizes the importance of maintaining our core values of compassion and mindfulness—even when confronted with strongly held opposing views. Margaret delves into the emotional turmoil that often accompanies political disagreements, acknowledging that such conflicts can feel deeply personal. She highlights the need to balance our attachment to beliefs with a commitment to understanding and kindness. Throughout the conversation, listeners will discover practical strategies for fostering compassionate dialogue, including the art of deep listening and the practice of mindful speech. How can we express disagreement while still upholding the values that bind us together as human beings? Margaret emphasizes that kindness is not a weakness; rather, it serves as a powerful tool for connection in a divided world.

Like authors, faith leaders are a great source for language about life and death. Venerable Jue Ji is a Buddhist nun who grew up in Taipei, Taiwan, and now calls Austin, Texas, home. Death is a key focus in Buddhism and Venerable shares ways that we can incorporate the idea of impermanence in our daily lives. We talk about how nature reflects impermance back to us, the afterlife, the death of her mother, and how her take on meditation is different from what many westerners think.You can learn more about Venerable Jue Ji's work here: https://www.ibps-austin.org/en/news/20240302C.php

Things are changing all the time. From the seasons,To the weather, our emotions, and our relationships.We are born, we grow old, and ultimately we die. To walk through life means to walk hand-in-hand with impermanence. It is simply part of what it means to be human. And this season on the podcast we wanted to make these shared experiences of change and uncertainty a focal point of our larger conversation. So for 3 episodes we are bringing together some of the great teachers, physicians, writers, and leaders of our time.To reflect on how we might embrace impermanence rather than push it away. From learning to relax into uncertainty, To loosening the grip of control as we aspire toward what matters to us with less attachment to the outcome,To opening up the possibility of appreciating the preciousness and beauty of being alive. Last week we kicked off this series with world renowned meditation teacher Sharon Salzberg and palliative care physician and author, Dr. Sunita Puri. Today, we are continuing with a deeply moving conversation between - Legendary teacher, activist, and best selling author Parker PalmerAnd CEO Coach, and co-founder of leading executive coaching firm Reboot, Jerry Colonna. Both Parker and Jerry have taught, written, and coached extensively on the topic of work - so today that's where much of our conversation will go. Some of the questions we'll explore include:How might we lean into the dynamic ebb and flow of our work experience with greater levity, wisdom, and compassion?What are the ways in which we can work in greater alignment with the imperatives of our soul? And for those on the unconventional path how can we find the courage to keep going in the face of doubt and fear?For more on Jerry please check out reboot.ioAnd for more on Parker please visit: newcomerpalmer.comDid you find this episode inspiring?

Learning to work with this energy rather than suppress it leads to better performance and overall well-being. Unprocessed Emotions Drain Energy: When emotions aren't acknowledged or expressed, they create internal energy blocks that weigh you down and can even manifest as physical pain. Your Emotional State Affects Your Golf Game: Suppressed frustration, anger, or anxiety doesn't just disappear—it shows up in your swing, decision-making, and overall performance on the course. Energy is Neither Good nor Bad—It's How You React That Matters: Emotions themselves are neutral. Your response to them determines whether they fuel your success or hold you back. Awareness is the First Step Toward Mastery: Developing an emotional vocabulary, recognizing how emotions feel in your body, and understanding your triggers help you gain control over your energy. Slowing Down is the Shortcut to Emotional Mastery: Practicing silence, reflection, and intentional awareness allows you to regulate emotions, making you more resilient and present under pressure. Mastering Emotional Energy Leads to Peak Performance: When you control your energy, you control your mind. And when you control your mind, you control your ability to execute in golf, business, and life. Key Quotes: “Emotions are simply energy in motion. The way you manage that energy determines your success.” “If you feel stuck in your game, in your progress, or in life, chances are you're emotionally constipated.” “Your thoughts begin it, your emotions amplify it, and your actions create momentum. Your results are simply an expression of that emotional energy.” “Unprocessed emotions don't just disappear. They show up in your body as tension, pain, or even chronic injury.” “When emotions remain unmanaged or repressed, they create energy blocks that drain you physically and mentally.” “Golf isn't just a technical game—it's an emotional and energetic one. You need to master your emotions to master your game.” “Slowing down, reflecting, and listening to your emotions gives you the power to transform them into fuel for growth.” Time Stamps: 00:00: Introduction to Emotional Constipation 03:03: Understanding Emotions and Energy 06:06: The Role of Energy in Transformation 08:57: Identifying and Managing Emotions 12:02: The Science of Energy and Emotions 14:57: Vibrational Frequencies and Emotional States 18:09: The Connection Between Mind and Body 21:02: Awareness and Emotional Mastery 23:46: The Impact of Repressed Emotions 26:45: Practical Steps for Emotional Awareness 30:08: The Impermanence of Emotions 32:52: Mastering Your Energy for Life 35:56: Conclusion and Reflection

There are certain threads inescapably woven into our experience of being alive.Simple but profound truths which make up the tapestry of what it means to be human. One of these is impermanence. The fact that everything, by nature, changes. From the seasons, to the weather, our emotions, and our relationships.We are born, we grow old, and ultimately we die. The flow of life is inherently dynamic as things are coming together, and falling apart. All the time. And while at times impermanence can be viewed in a grim light (endings, and death),Change also means new beginnings, rejuvenation, and possibility. After Winter ends, the sun comes out, flowers bloom, and the natural landscape comes to life.  And if change is truly just a part of being alive, Then the pragmatic question is:How can we relate to this shared experience in ways that lead to living well? Over the next 3 weeks we are going to explore this question (and versions of it) in depth,With some of the great teachers, physicians, writers, and leaders of our time. Together we'll discuss themes like:Learning to relax into uncertainty, Loosening our grip of control as we aspire toward long term goals with less attachment to outcomes,The possibility of appreciating the preciousness and taking in the beauty of being alive.To kick things off today you'll hear a beautiful and often moving conversation between:World renowned meditation teacher, co founder of the Insight Meditation Society and NYT Bestselling author Sharon Salzberg, And Physician, author, and Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine where she is also the Director of Inpatient Palliative Care Services, Dr. Sunita Puri.Both of whom have been the show before, but never in conversation together in this way - exploring how we might make the most of the short time we are here. For more on Sharon check out sharonsalzberg.comFor more on Sunita, including her beautiful memoir: That Good night: Life and Medicine in the Eleventh Hour please visit https://sunitapuri.com/Did you find this episode inspiring?

Well, this year has certainly taken a turn for the unexpected! On Tuesday, January 7th, the Palisades Fire broke out in LA and we evacuated that evening, and didn't return back to LA for 3.5 weeks.   In this solo episode, I share some reflections from the last several weeks. I highlight some themes: When timelines shift (and grounding into this…) Impermanence (everything is constantly changing) Spiritual bypass (& the impulse to want to fix, rather than feel) Giving and receiving (the flow and intertwining of these energies) Living closer to the truth (& the discomfort of this!) I hope you enjoy, and as always feel free to reach out with your thoughts! If you want to get in touch, email me at vicky@vicky-aldana.com or reach out to me on Instagram at @vickylizette.

There's such huge other forces happening right now—climate change, artificial intelligence, nuclear fusion energy—huge possibilities and huge problems. As T.S.

Everything that turns offers a new openness and beginning for something else.” – Jack KornfieldIn this fresh episode, Jack mindfully explores:Navigating the election and politics in a changing worldReturning to the basics of Buddhism and living a wise spiritual lifeQuieting the mind, tending the heart, listening to the cries, and seeing with the eyes of wisdomWhat Ajahn Chah's wisdom for the election results would beOpening to change, honoring impermanence, facing sufferingAnnica – the wisdom of uncertaintyNavigating the “Great Turning” of the worldShifting from exploitive and consumer consciousness to one of interdependence and mutual careFacing our suffering, warfare, racism, aging, death, loss, and changeThe Zen view of the “dew drop” worldHow annica, dukka, anatta connect with nirvana and unshakeable freedomTo end the illusion of separationPolitics as a form of ritualized warfareStanding up like Arjuna in the Bhagavad GitaHuman history as also containing compassion, courage, and sweetnessFinding refuge in Buddha, Dharma, and SanghaLiving from unconditional love and a freedom from fearThe transformative power of communityOur inexorable connection to all the great Saints, Gods, and to the Great Mystery“You get to choose your spirit.

You know it when you make love, or take psychedelics, or have some profound meditation, or dance until you disappear.
