Wise Concentration, the final step of the Eightfold Path, integrates all preceding steps, guiding practitioners toward liberation and enlightenment. It involves steadying the mind to develop insight, clarity, and a deep state of presence.Wise Concentration builds on:Wise Understanding: Focusing on why we practice and what we need.Wise Intention: Setting a clear purpose for practice.Wise Speech, Action, and Livelihood: Cultivating ethical discipline and clarity in thought and behaviour.Wise Effort: Redirecting the mind to the present moment with perseverance.Wise Mindfulness: Maintaining non-judgmental awareness to support concentration.In yoga, concentration techniques include scheduling time, creating a focused space, steadying the gaze (Drishti), practicing Ujjayi breath, and using objects such as breath or sensation to anchor awareness.With consistent practice, distractions lessen, leading to deeper focus, inner stillness, and the joyful absorption of the present moment—paving the way to freedom and fulfilment.To read more and to practice with Zephyr Wildman, click here.

The third step of the Eightfold Path, Wise Speech, emphasises the importance of mindful, compassionate communication. It involves refraining from false speech, divisive speech, harsh words, and idle chatter, while cultivating truthful, meaningful, and purposeful communication. Wise Speech encourages us to speak with honesty, kindness, and empathy, promoting understanding and harmony.Active listening is also essential, allowing for deeper connection and skilful responses. The practice of mindful speech asks us to reflect on the impact of our words and ensure they are thoughtful, helpful, inspiring, necessary, and kind.In addition, we practice Noble Silence, which enhances concentration and mindfulness, reduces distractions, and creates space for reflection. During Noble Silence, we observe our internal dialogue, recognising the stories and reactions that arise. This practice trains the mind to be more present and connected to the body. Today, we'll use pranayama techniques like OM and Bhramari to deepen this connection and foster contentment and freedom.To read more and to practice with Zephyr Wildman, click here.

The Eightfold Path is a central teaching in Buddhism, offering guidelines for a meaningful life. It consists of eight steps: Wise Understanding, Wise Intention, Wise Speech, Wise Action, Wise Livelihood, Wise Effort, Wise Mindfulness, and Wise Concentration. These steps are categorised into three groups: Wisdom (Wise Understanding, Wise Intention), Morality (Wise Speech, Wise Action, Wise Livelihood), and Concentration (Wise Effort, Wise Mindfulness, Wise Concentration). These categories are interdependent, supporting the development of wisdom, ethical conduct, and mental concentration.Wise Understanding involves a clear awareness of the Four Noble Truths, which explain suffering, its causes, its cessation, and the path to its end. It encourages mindfulness of one's body, mind, and energy, helping identify attachments and aversions. Practicing this wisdom in yoga and life helps clear distractions, leading to greater clarity, compassion, wisdom, and love, ultimately guiding us toward self-awareness, peace, and purpose.To read more and to practice with Zephyr Wildman, click here.

(Insight San Diego) Wise speech is an integral part of the traditional Buddhist path of awakening and a powerful way to energize our daily life practice, but is often underdeveloped in Western Buddhist practice. We'll look in a very practical way at three aspects of wise speech: (1) developing presence in the midst of communication; (2) working with the four guidelines for skillful speech developed by the Buddha; and (3) becoming more mindful of and skillful with thoughts and emotions occurring during communication. For each of the foundations, a number of ways of practicing are offered. The talk is followed by discussion.

The Buddha's teaching on Wise Speech serves us well in these days of great polarization. We have our sides and spew our rhetoric, often without thinking about how we communicate can make a bad situation worse. The invitation, as always, is pause and think about the truth, necessity and kindness of how we connect with others. It does not mean we shy away from difficult conversations or keep quiet in the face of injustice. Instead, it asks us to really be present in how we show up.

It's been coming up a lot lately and a conversation with a friend finally convinced me it was time for a reminder on the topic. I hope you'll enjoy this talk, and would like to hear from you if you have any questions or comments.

Steadfast in Wise Speech, James 3:1-18 James 3 challenges us to reject the double-mindedness that stunts our growth, sabotages our work, and poisons our words, by single-mindedly pursuing the pure wisdom of God from above (3:17). A double-minded, restless, and unstable (1:8, 3:8) woman looks back to the wisdom from below—whose source is the fire of Hell—and allows jealousy and selfish ambition (3:14,16) to flourish in her heart so that she seeks her own glory at the expense of others and sets herself up as God's judge, grumbling about his gifts and accusing him of evil (1: 13). But the pure wisdom of God has power to supplant the jealousy and selfish ambition in our hearts with the meekness of wisdom, (3:13) so that we gradually grow up into the steadfast character of our God and Savior. Receiving this wisdom is easier than you might think! We have only to ask (1:5), and the God “who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all” will also graciously give us the wisdom we need to grow in our faith, to be fruitful in our works, and to overflow in a fountain of life-giving words (Romans 8:32).

(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) We first review four foundations of wise speech: (1) developing presence in the midst of communication; (2) working with the four guidelines for skillful speech developed by the Buddha; (3) bringing our mindfulness and skillful responses to our thoughts, emotions, and body states into our speech practice; and (4) empathy practice, tuning into others' and our own emotions and sense of "what matters." We then explore the importance of being with challenges and difficulties in our practice generally, and do two exercises exploring a difficult or challenging interaction with another, including working with an "empathy map." Discussion follows. (Materials on emotions [or feelings], needs, and an "empathy map" are given below, under "documents.")
(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) We first focus on the importance of the practice of wise speech and then review three foundations of such practice: (1) developing presence in the midst of communication; (2) working with the four guidelines for skillful speech developed by the Buddha; and (3) integrating our practice to be mindful and skillful with thoughts, emotions, and body states with our speech practice. We then introduce a fourth foundation, empathy practice, aiming to understand and connect with another, exploring the roots of such practice in the innate capacity of empathy. We then identify a simple yet basic practice of tuning into someone's emotions and "needs" (or what matters to someone), based on the work of Nonviolent Communication (developed first by Marshall Rosenberg). A discussion follows, particularly examining bringing these practices into challenging interactions. (Materials on emotions--or feelings, needs, and an "empathy map" are given below, under "documents.")
(Spirit Rock Meditation Center) We look first at the importance of wise speech, the way that it forms an integral part of the path of awakening, the way that it is often underdeveloped in Western Buddhist practice, for various reasons, and some of the challenges of speech. We then examine three aspects of wise speech practice: (1) developing presence in the midst of communication; (2) working with the four guidelines for skillful speech developed by the Buddha; and (3) integrating our practice to be mindful and skillful with thoughts, emotions, and body states with our speech practice. The talk is followed by discussion, focused especially on some challenging relational and speech situations.
