Episode 149: What I Wish I Knew About Meditation Before I Started (Part 2) Host: Matt Marney
Description
This is the follow-up to Episode 148 — a deeper dive into the inner landscape of meditation and the powerful shifts it can create in how we experience the world.
In this solo episode, Matt explores what comes after the breath and body: mindfulness of sound, mind, and emotion — and how these practices can help build emotional awareness, resilience, and a more open-hearted way of living.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why paying attention to sound is a doorway to deeper presence
- What mindfulness of mind actually means — and how to observe your thoughts without judgment
- How to understand vedanā (feeling tone) and why it’s key to emotional intelligence
- How seeing impermanence clearly helps you deal with uncertainty and change
- What the Brahma Vihārās are — and how joy, kindness, gratitude, and compassion can rewire your heart
- How these teachings can shift your lens on the world — making you less reactive and more appreciative
This is a rich, expansive companion to Part 1 — giving you the next layer of insight to grow your meditation practice and recondition both the mind and heart.
