Podcasts about life through

There are many ways to handle the complexities of life - many ways of looking at or trying to make sense of the world around us. There is polytheism, secularism, humanism, and post-modernism to name a few. But all these fall short in fulfilling our greatest need - the need for forgiveness. The simple answer lies in John Chapter 10 which tells us clearly of the only Door to heaven. Who is this door? It's the Lord Jesus Christ, of course!

Bob Martin teaches how to meditate for a wise and happy life. He emphasizes the importance of patience, consistent practice, and recognizing the distinction between the thinker and the thought. The discussion includes personal shared experiences with loving-kindness meditation and how it can help people become more non-judgmental. Specific meditation practices, including breath awareness meditation, and the significance of sound in meditation are discussed. Meditation and group coaching are discussed, highlighting the personal, relational, and transformative benefits of the practice. Listen & Subscribe on: iTunes / Stitcher / Podbean / Overcast / Spotify Contact Info Website: www.AWiseAndHappyLife.com Meditation Benefits Bob Martin first learned meditation in the mid-80s under a Taoist master. Initially, he found meditation challenging. However, with guidance, he developed a daily practice and eventually reaped the benefits. Consequently, Bob found meditation helpful in reconnecting with forgotten parts of himself, ultimately leading to transformation. Currently, Bob Martin practices breath awareness meditation, which involves bringing attention to the breath and watching the mind. This method is different from Transcendental Meditation. Meditation For Relaxation Bob emphasizes the dignity and potential of humanity and invites listeners to breathe. Teachers instruct students to focus on physical sensations, including breathing, to ground themselves in the present. Ways To Thrive With Meditation Meditation not only cultivates mindfulness but also enhances neuron activation and spinal cord energy. Bob describes feeling like he is “waking up” when his mind wanders during meditation, thereby recognizing his lack of attention. Bob describes life as spending time on the ocean's surface, with gentle undulations, while also being present and learning to connect with oneself. Bob Martin discusses the importance of non-judgmental awareness in walking meditation. Furthermore, he uses the word “Gotha” to describe a short phrase timed with breath. Bob emphasizes the importance of recognizing the “I” that had the thought. Rather than identifying with the thought itself, this practice helps to gain clarity and organization in the mind.

It's like if there's a storm occurring on the top of an ocean, but 20 feet down, things are calm. I can get mad as heck and still know that there's a place inside me just watching my anger. Thoughts On Breathing The student comes to the master and says breathing, breathing, breathing. Why are you always talking about breathing? So the master grabs his head and sticks it underneath the water in the fountain and holds it there for a while. Then he releases it and says to the student. Any questions?   Breathing is just a point of attention, but since you carry it with you wherever you are, it's not like a candle. You always have your breath. Immediately bring your attention to your breath and because you are already conditioned that that is your meditative state, it results in a feeling of calm. Bullying Story I was bullied as a child. I'm 60% Hungarian, and we go back to the Huns and the Mongolians. So you can imagine that my people are the ones playing goal hockey with a Lamb's head. I've always been big. When I was in elementary school, all the girls used to call me cooties. My mindfulness and meditation practice have allowed me to get to the point where I have some insight as to what might have been going on with them and the peer pressure that they had. Subsequently, mindfulness has helped me to have a certain forgiveness. If I had been more mindful, I might not have been as traumatized by it.
