How can you be free when you're constantly battling your unwanted thoughts and feelings? Sharon Salzberg, meditation pioneer, world-renowned teacher, New York Times bestselling author, and co-founder of The Insight Meditation Society was one of the first leaders to bring mindfulness and lovingkindness meditation to mainstream American culture, which has inspired generations of meditation teachers and wellness leaders. She shares how to change your relationship to your thoughts, how to find equanimity in a competitive culture driven by external goals, how to not get derailed by someone else's opinion of you, and how to make real progress by letting go and starting over again. - Join Cathy's Quilt Membership Cathyheller.com/quilt - Sign up for Amy Porterfield's Live Course Creation Bootcamp at Cathyheller.com/amy - Get Sharon's books, offerings, Metta Hour podcast and more at https://www.sharonsalzberg.com/ - Get your copy of Sharon's latest book, Real Life: The Journey from Isolation to Openness and Freedom https://www.sharonsalzberg.com/reallife/ - Follow Sharon on Instagram @sharonsalzberg  - Sign up for Sharon's 5 day Emerging into Connection Challenge https://www.sharonsalzberg.com/connection-challenge/ Learn more about your ad choices.
