12 Ways Meditation Can Give You More Joy and Less Stress During the Holidays: Day 8

Led by Asatar Bair. Day 8 Meditation:See the truth. Feel the truth. Be the truth. Let's face it, there are certain messages in our culture about the holidays that are nothing more than lies. There is the idea that if we just get more stuff, we'll be happy. There's the idea that if we give people stuff, then we'll be able to make them happy. And then there's the idea that if we can just make everything in our life right, we'll be loved, respected, and accepted. We need to come to a place of truth within ourselves. We need to see what is truth and what is lies. We need to fan the flame of truth within us so that it burns brightly enough to illuminate every corner of life, not to judge others or tell them what to do, but to know who we are and have the strength to be our true selves, even when everyone seems to be against it. Meditation is about discovering the infinite and perfect Truth within your heart, where your heart becomes the Heart of Truth.
