Episode #27: Exploring Awareness 24/7 - a podcast by Frank Anderson MD MPH and Lisa Barry

Do you react or respond? What is the difference? Is there a sense of spacious freedom that can be naturally experienced? Exploring awareness 24/7 changes the way the day unfolds and just may result in a lived experience that doesn’t include angst and fear – but instead peace and joy. We have talked a lot about being aware using meditation techniques, sometimes called “formal” practice.  Today we discuss exploring awareness 24/7- sometimes called informal practice. It may be easy to say you area aware of things, a type of mental awareness, but the awareness we are talking about is much deeper, and extends awareness from the thought of awareness to the awareness of thoughts, and even the awareness of awareness. Our discussion covers the meaning of these concepts, the frustration that comes from trying to figure this out, and ends with a guided meditation that guides the listener to the experience of awareness, watching everything as a does the lighthouse keeper. As Awareness connects us to all, a realization of the unity of all beings and our connection to divine nature can spontaneously arise- no thoughts needed.
