Florida Community of Mindfulness

Recognizing that the meditation and practices FCM offers to students are in support of their personal transformation, Dharma teacher Fred Eppsteiner begins most sessions at weekly Sangha and Days of Mindfulness answering students' questions about their Dharma practice and the integration of that practice into their lives. The many Q&A recordings here consist of questions that Fred is asked during Dharma talks and his responses. In some cases, the audio of the questions has been replaced with a brief silence as typically it is not audible. Fred repeats the question before he answers it.

Jacqulyn Schuett leads a meditation on loving kindness, or "metta."

 

One form of meditation often practiced at the Florida Community of Mindfulness is the “guided meditation”. In these meditations, one is voice-guided step-by-step through a meditative experience.

Guided meditations may have different purposes. Some are general, aimed at quieting the mind and producing calmness and relaxation. Others have a very specific purpose, such as cultivating loving-kindness, reflecting on impermanence, watching the arising and passing away of emotions or thoughts, and more.

The following guided meditations were recorded by senior members of the FCM community. To best benefit from the guidance, we encourage you to take a noble posture in a quiet setting, and to let the words gently guide and open your mind.

Darlene Stewart guides us in the practice of taking care of the suffering within us.
