Seriousness: Meditation Morsels

This talk explores the theme of seriousness in meditation practice. It highlights that while seriousness is sometimes necessary in life, a lighter, more joyful attitude can be more effective—especially in practices like loving-kindness (metta) meditation, where playfulness can help soften the heart.It can serve well to find and maintain a healthy balance with seriousness, particularly in mindfulness of breathing. Too much seriousness can lead to tension and over-effort, while too little can result in drowsiness, distraction, or lack of discipline. The key is finding the right amount of seriousness to stay committed and present without becoming rigid or overly striving.Want to be a guest on Inner Skilled?
