EP35 | Jack Kornfield - Healing Trauma Through Collective Meditation

Thomas Hübl is joined by writer, trained Buddhist monk, and meditation teacher, Jack Kornfield. They discuss how Buddhist meditation and mindfulness practices, in combination with more traditional forms of therapy, can help to heal individual and collective trauma. Jack explores how his own traumatic experiences led him to Buddhism. Early in his spiritual journey, he spent extensive time in highly traumatized environments. There, he learned the importance of creating safe, ritual containers where people can come together to share and process their trauma.  He believes that mindful, loving awareness is a skill that anyone can learn, and it’s an essential practice for anyone seeking to heal their own trauma or be a compassionate witness to the trauma of others. Ultimately, Jack believes that love is our most powerful tool to address the world’s most dire problems. ✨ Registration is open for Thomas’ all-new, live online course: The Spiritual Healing Journey Learn more and sign up here: 👉 https://spiritualhealingjourneycourse.com During this 5-month immersive course, Thomas and expert guest speakers, including Jack, will dive deep into spirituality, exploring how it can be a powerful resource for healing individual, ancestral, and collective trauma.
