- Tamara Levitt, Founder of Begin Within, discusses her views on repression in Meditation practice. (Feel free to interchange the word, "Meditation" with "Mindfulness" for a talk that relates to all.)
We live in an age which is highlighted by the single word 'stress'. Your very thoughtful Calm sessions really helps us to know that we really don't have to put up with this! Thank you!
Love you Tamara, may you be healthy happy and safe.
u make me fall asleep every night. #calm
I hope you keep on going with what you're doing. Calm has helped me so very much in my life, and I owe that to you. However crazy this may seem, I think that meditation and mindfulness is perhaps on the cutting edge of our modern understanding of health and well-being. Although it is an ancient practice, it is only now being presented to the masses as a tried and true way to improve our existence. We try so very hard to become better versions of ourselves. What you've taught me is that I already am the person I've striven to become. It is not my environment, but rather the manner in which I respond to my environment, that I am capable of improving. Thank you from the depths of my heart and soul.
I had downloaded calm but never really listen to the stories up until a few months ago when I was so stress my blood pressure was high An I didn’t know how to relax because I am always thinking. my apps on my phone had calm An consist of mediation which I tried an off but when I came across your sleepy time stories it really help me calm down an I listen to it all of the time. Your voice is so calming An soothing it really help me tremendously. I decided to research your name an found you on utube. I have to say your stories really resonates with me. I am Mom with a 10 yrs old boy .. I am divorced after 20 yrs An now I have an illness .. I used to think I am a failure but if I didn’t fail I would not have accomplished being a Mom, being a wife,Own my home An actually had a career. What I am trying To say is at least I did these things even though the marriage didn’t works out I have a wonderful son. Thanks for you explaining that we should celebrate our failure instead of worrying about it.
What your quote sounds like is the idea of suppressing thoughts vs. repressing them. Active vs. passive silencing of them.
Now the question “why the background scene of an alley with graffiti?” 😝
Is she jewish?
