There is something about being willing to feel a felt sense of pleasant and unpleasant and even neutral, so that the mind doesn't get trapped in boredom.
Ever felt trapped by your impulses? In this episode of the Buddhist Recovery Network Podcast, Tuere Sala, a guiding teacher at the Seattle Insight Meditation Society, dives into the power of mindfulness in overcoming addiction. With over 25 years of Vipassana meditation practice and a background as a prosecuting attorney, Tuere offers a unique blend of wisdom and practicality.
She shares her journey of recognizing impulse as the root of destructive behavior and how being present with emotions can pave the way to stability and freedom from self-hatred. Tuere’s teachings are accessible and grounded, making them perfect for anyone grappling with high stress, past trauma, or the challenge of sitting still. She emphasizes the importance of feeling difficult emotions without letting them control your actions.
This episode also introduces resources for those curious about Buddhist recovery, including upcoming events and workshops. Tune in for a refreshing perspective on building resilience and finding peace through mindfulness.
