Reverse Meditation How to Use Your Pain and Most Difficult Emotions as the Doorway to Inner Freedom [Audiobook]

Disruptive practices to revolutionize your relationship with meditation and fully engage with the full breadth of your experience. Why do we meditate? The main reason most modern people start meditating is because it helps us feel better-reducing anxiety, improving sleep, decluttering the mind, and so forth. "But where does your meditation go when things go bad?" asks Andrew Holecek. "Where is your spirituality when 'rock meets bone,' as they say in Tibet-when the crap hits the fan?" Reverse Meditation is for anyone who wants to bring the challenges of life onto the path of awakening. When things get hard, it's time to turn your practice on its head-and throw out any assumption that meditation exists to insulate you from the confusion, difficulties, and uncertainty of life. "By putting your meditation into reverse," Holecek teaches, "you'll actually find yourself going forward. Step into your pain and you can step up your evolution."
