In this excerpt from our discussion, we talk about conflict resolution in the field of mediation as compared to Aikido, and how they are in essence the same thing. I’m sure you’ll enjoy this short excerpt on “Embodying Conflict Resolution”.
In this Dharma Bite meditation teacher Miles Kessler answers a question about “How can one visualize oneself?” in meditation. This excerpt is from a talk that was given at SeeTrue Mindfulness center in Maastricht, Holland on June 15th, 2014.
