Week 1
Week 1 – Full Workshop (1 Hour)
This is the full workshop from start to finish, containing all dialogue and the 3 meditations taught that week.
Week 1 – “Simple Breathing Meditation”
The simplest form of meditation that forms the core of most mindfulness meditations.
Week 1 – “The Lord is My Shepherd Mantra Meditation”
Pastor Phil leads a study of the bible passage to gain insight and new meaning into the phrase.
Week 1 – “I Am – Mantra Meditation”
Simple yet powerful meditation. Using your mind by repeating a simple phrase rather than allowing your mind to use you.
Week 2 – FULL Workshop (1 hour)
This is the full workshop from start to finish, containing all dialogue and the 2 meditations taught that week. Mindfulness is a form of meditation that can be practiced while out in the real world. It’s a way to incorporate the lessons you learn in meditation into your daily life.
Week 2 – Mindfulness Practice
Just the instruction in how to incorporate mindfulness into your life as well as a short practice session.
Find something small you can hold in your hand before watching this video. You’ll need it.
Week 2 – Twin Tiger Meditation
This is one of my favorite meditations because it teaches you to remain perfectly still as well as be acutely aware of your thoughts.
Did anyone say, “fastest way to a silent mind???”
Week 3 – FULL Workshop (1 hour)
Unconditional Love is the most powerful tool we have at our disposal. How can your mind criticize and complain about something if you’re feeling pure love towards it.
Learn how to reprogram your subconscious mind to make unconditional love your default response, and reap the reward of a completely silent mind, flooding your body with feel good hormones. It’s the healthiest you’ve ever felt. No more complaining. No drama. Just pure love.
