Captured live during Mettagroup’s new weekly online Dharma talk, George Haas discusses the second stage of Insight from Mahasi Sayadaw’s Manual of Insight.

In episode 8 of Human Nurture, we explore PACT's core element of meditation with George Haas the founder of Mettagroup, a meditation center in Los Angeles. We are also joined by Stan Tatkin, the founder of PACT as he reflects on the interview with George and talks about the influence of meditation on PACT theory and practice.George's training and background could not provide a better bridge between PACT and meditation. He teaches Vipassanā (insight meditation) from a foundation of attachment theory and developmental neuroscience. Not only do we have all of this in common with George's teachings, he has also completed PACT level 1 and 2 training. Georges manages to do all of this with a mixture empathy and irreverence which makes for a fun and informative interview.Here is a taste of the way George makes attachment and neuroscience come to life through descriptions of the process of learning to be in the present moment.  "That is why we focus so much on getting people to mentalize their thought processes and understand that if you can be in the present moment and deal with the circumstances of the present moment you don’t need to have all of these afflictive thoughts driving the body into early aging."Follow along of Facebook @humannurturepodcastTime-----00:00:00 - 00:02:00 -Jason Introduction00:02:00-00:33:43 - Jason and Stan Tatkin00:33:45-01:30:29 - Jason and George HaasResources-----Metta Group (George's podcast can be found here)-  https://www.mettagroup.org/ Great interview on the 10% Happier Podcast with Shinzen Young (Stan and George's meditation teacher)-  https://podcasts.apple.com/ni/podcast/64-shinzen-young-meditation-teacher/id1087147821?i=1000382028850 

George outlines how early care during infancy and early childhood has a profound effect on the attachment style that will emerge later in life for an adult.

Meditation teacher George Haas spent a lot of time seeking while he was growing up in New York. After experiencing a bout of particularly deep suffering, he got sober, moved to Los Angeles and started extensively studying Buddhist texts. In 2003, he founded the Mettagroup where he uses a combination of Buddhist teaching and John Bowlby’s Attachment Theory to help students reduce their suffering and live meaningful lives. In this podcast, we talk about the path that led George to become a meditation teacher, how he uses Attachment Theory in his work, and his definition of enlightenment. Before our talk, I answer a listener question about overwhelming thoughts during meditation. This episode is sponsored by Roofstock!
