About this episode

Mini Meditation: Delight, Sorrow and What Lies Between



When we reflect on opposing forces such as good & evil or joy & sorrow, it is easy to see them as existing on a scale with one force on each side - thesis and antithesis.


 But, what happens when we introduce a third force? Thesis. Antithesis. Synthesis. 


Fire. Water. Air. 


Rabbi Jill Hammer writes, “ when we come to presence, we are able to hold multiple truths without straining.”


Join me for today’s mini meditation as we practice holding multiple truths and bringing synthesis to the moment.  


Today’s meditation is inspired by the guided visualization Higher than Delight, Deeper than Sorrow written by Rabbi Jill Hammer.
