- Education
Please join us in what will be our last conversation of 2020. We’re taking a break during the month of December to rest and rejuvenate from what has been a difficult and unpredictable year for most of us, and we plan to return in January 2021 with a fresh perspective and more interviews with some really great guests.
Our hope is that you will also take this time to slow down and recharge, even if it’s just during the time you share with us on this episode.
We have a special treat for you that will help you on your way to doing that.
Jona Genova is our special guest today and she will be leading us in a compassionate meditation. Jona is an energy healer and a meditation teacher.
You’re going to love this!
Enjoy the holidays the best way you can, and we’ll see you next year.
Show Highlights:
Jona teaches “sustainable compassion training”. As Jona relates, this form of meditation has been adapted from Tibetan tradition. Lama John Makransky, who is also known as Professor John Makransky, is Jona’s mentor. Jona shares evidence of meditation and its positive effects on the body. There are some differences between this type of meditation and mindfulness, and Jona explains the term “relational starting point”. Sustainable compassion training has a powerful impact on trauma. Jona explains how our happiness and our suffering are interwoven. “In order to send love and compassion, you must be in a state that is available to receive love and compassion.” - Lama John Makransky If we are in the position of caregiver during this holiday season (or during any stressful time), we must take a posture of receptivity and we must learn how to receive care. Jona leads Vickie and Amanda in a “voo-ing” exercise that tones the vagus nerve. Jona wraps up the show by leading a short meditation.
