“The practice of Direct Awakening is always only about this moment. It's always only about awakening in this moment of practice. So we need to come to our practice with the full optimism and audacity that this moment is the moment that I awaken. There's nothing that could get in my way.” —Craig Hamilton
In this episode, Craig sheds light on an often-overlooked aspect of meditation—the mindset we bring to the practice.
While technique gives us the structure, it’s the mindset that brings energy and direction to our meditation. Most of us focus on getting the technique right, asking questions like, "Am I doing this correctly?" But the attitudes and mental dispositions we bring to each session are equally essential.
Craig explores two powerful meditation mindsets: audacious optimism and intentionality. These aren’t just subtle refinements—they’re transformative forces that can unlock greater depth, clarity, and alignment in your practice. By embracing these mindsets, you can infuse your meditation with a dynamic energy that accelerates your spiritual growth.
