Meaningfulness with Catherine McGee 

Välkommen till ett nytt engelskt avsnitt av Meditera Mera. Följ The Mindfully Podcast för att ta del av vårt korta avsnitt med de mest insiktsfulla stunderna som släpps nästa tisdag.

In this episode, Axel speaks with Catherine McGee about meaningfulness and how to live a more present life.

Catherine has taught Insight Meditation at Gaia House and internationally since the late 1990s. She is a member of the Gaia House Teachers Council, an advisor to One Earth Sangha and a long-term student of the Diamond Approach. Her teaching emphasises embodiment, healing in relation to the individual and collective crises of our time, and how to translate our deepest knowledge into our lived relationships. Between 2014 and 2020, Catherine collaborated with Rob Burbea in shaping and teaching Soulmaking Dharma.

We talk about:

• Recognizing the difference between attachment and love

• The understanding that there is always a way of looking

• The importance of intention on the spiritual path

• Asking what we most deeply desire

• The difference between craving and wholesome desire

• Allowing ourselves to want happiness

• Finding beauty, sacredness and meaning

• Honouring both our shared nature and our unique place in the world

• Loosening the views and assumptions through which we perceive reality

• What soul means within Soulmaking Dharma

• The relationship between soul, heart and mind

• Recognizing and cultivating meaningfulness in daily life

• How meaning can help us navigate uncertainty and times of crisis

Catherine ends our conversation by guiding a meditation on kindness.
