"Let your heart be as big as your whole experience, like the sky." – Jack Kornfield

In this episode, Jack mindfully explores:

  • Overcoming aversion by "bringing it into your heart" rather than your rational mind
  • Touching into emotions, fears, and judgements with compassion instead of aversion
  • Using techniques like "noting/naming" for moving past intense feelings
  • Loving your negatives states as you would love your own child
  • Seeing clearly the karma, value, and consequence of your personal patterns
  • Who would you be if you dropped your opinions, views, identity?
  • Growing your heart to the size of the sky
  • Practicing the 'art of letting go'
  • Learning to live in the reality 'the Now'
  • Why Buddha had a better time than most
  • Painting as a doorway to spiritual experience
  • Transmuting difficulties by dropping our resistance to them
  • How to hold healthy views without being attached to them


"In this space of Now, it's not necessary to have fear. In this place of Now, we can rest." – Jack Kornfield

"If we want to create peace, or if we want to live free from greed, hatred and delusion, the place to start is in ourselves." – Jack Kornfield
