Today is the feast of the Ascension. The Thursday, 40 days after Easter, where Jesus returns to heaven. In German it’s called Christihimmelfahrt. I’ve always loved this day. It reminds me Spring. Of exultations of larks. Of seeing something glorious you’ll never see again.
Have you subscribed to the Mindsprings YouTube channel yet? Lots of guided meditations, recorded teachings and other videos with Alistair for you to enjoy. New stuff is being uploaded regularly so take a look. #youtube #guidedmeditation #alistairappleton buff.ly/3seWsMf
NEW PODCAST: In this recorded teaching session, Alistair discusses suffering and pain. We are conditioned to believe that we should be suffering but the best way to end the struggle is to remove the ‘me’. #mediation #suffering #addiction buff.ly/3fdFrN6
New Recorded Teaching: Alistair responds to a question about Worrying. Is worrying positive for the person that you're worried about? He suggests there's a lot of 'self' in worrying but does that help? #anxiety #worry #meditation buff.ly/3bj3JnY
