ZC 2174: Coexisting Feelings

Yesterday, surrounded by sunshine and vibrant autumn trees, I found myself missing my dad while also feeling happy and at peace. Sunday used to be our day together, and his absence was present alongside the beauty. Neither feeling canceled the other. There was room for both.

In today’s episode, we explore how meditation can help us welcome feelings that seem contradictory. We don’t have to push sadness away to appreciate joy, or feel guilty for enjoying life while missing someone we love. By noticing what’s here without insisting it be different, we can allow our experience to be as full and varied as it is.
