True Story

"True Story" is a Dharma talk and brief guided meditation about learning to separate what actually happened from what the mind adds to it, how papañca (mental proliferation) can turn one unpleasant moment into an entire bad day, and how gratitude can help us see everything that is true about an experience without denying what hurts. We don’t always get to choose what happens to us. But we can practice choosing what we carry away from it. I hope you find the talk useful. Enjoy! https://bio.reverendgeorgebeecher.com

We don’t always get to choose what happens to us. But we can practice choosing what we carry away from it. I hope you find the talk useful. Enjoy!
