Guided Mindfulness Meditation Series 2 was designed by Jon Kabat-Zinn as a core training tool to begin and deepen a daily meditation practice, and to bring mindfulness into every aspect of life. Intended to be used in conjunction with his book Wherever You Go, There You Are, these four CD-length programs are a valuable resource that meditators at all experience levels can adapt to their specific needs. They include:
• Guided sitting meditations—the basics of mindfulness meditation
• Mindfulness while lying down—guided sessions for learning how to “fall awake” rather than fall asleep, which, teaches Kabat-Zinn, is what mindfulness is all about
• The Mountain Meditation and Lake Meditation—evokes two powerful images to deepen concentration and expand one’s feeling for the inward gesture involved in mindfulness practice
• Silence, with bells to mark the passage of time—5-, 10-, 15-, 20-, and 30-minute timed sessions
Mindfulness is moment-to-moment non-judgmental awareness, a way to connect with a deep sense of comfort, balance, insight, and freedom within our own lives, both physically and emotionally. It is a way to embody sanity, clarity, and harmony, even in challenging circumstances. And it’s a way to heal ourselves and our relationships with others. But it does require cultivation. These guided meditations provide an essential set of tools to help support that process.

Resist Nothing: Guided Meditations to Heal the Pain-Body
No Judgment, No Resistance-the Path to Liberation from the Pain-Body
Why do our negative experiences seem to stay with us so persistently? It is because they are the fuel for what Eckhart Tolle calls the pain-body, an energetic field that actually feeds on toxic thoughts and emotions. Liberation from the pain-body is not about repressing or denying our thoughts. Instead, as Eckhart’s teaching partner Kim Eng reveals, we must develop a complete receptiveness to all experience-rejecting nothing, judging nothing, and resisting nothing.
On Resist Nothing, Eckhart and his teaching partner Kim Eng present essential wisdom and practices for dissolving the pain-body. Beginning with a 30-minute exploration by Eckhart into the nature of the pain-body, you will then learn five of Kim’s most effective guided meditations and on-the-spot practices for clearing blockages, releasing unhealthy attachments, and becoming fully present in any situation. Join them to learn:
How the pain-body arises, what fuels it, and its role in the process of awakeningHealing at the physical, emotional, and subtle levels-guided meditations from Kim Eng for relieving suffering with spacious awarenessThe Pointing Exercise-a key practice for dissolving our identification with the pain-body
Eckhart Tolle and Kim Eng teach that when we view the pain-body as a reminder to become more present, it can become a powerful ally in our awakening. With Resist Nothing, they offer an illuminating and practical program on one of the most important steps we can take on the journey to spiritual awakening.
