#51 Mindful Awareness of Feelings Guided Practice
Show Notes Chapter Markers

In the Second Foundation of Mindfulness, the Buddha outlines practices for working with feelings.  Not quite the same as emotions, feelings are the visceral, body-based responses to circumstances before the mind turns them into emotions. 

In this guided practice, Jen helps you to establish a neutral anchor with the breath before exploring the preferential tones - also known as hedonic tones - that arise in response to how we feel from moment to moment. 

This episode  begins with a short talk. Use the chapter marker or jump to 2:45 to skip straight to the meditation.
