Episode 165: Open Heart – Part I

November 15, 2016

In working with the heart in our meditation practice, we may discover that we are not receptive to the feelings that arise in that space. In this talk, Reggie discusses the ways we defend against experiences of vulnerability when we judge uncomfortable feelings.

This talk was given at the 2016 The Body Loves retreat held at the Blazing Mountain Retreat Center in Crestone, CO.
