Moving Beyond Our Story | May 14, 2023

Thoughts are always just thoughts, but if we follow them and believe them they quickly turn into story. In today's Sit Club gathering, Davin explores the practice of noticing our thoughts so as to give up our story, which is often the cause of our suffering. In addition, he considers the safety that stories provide and what it means to honor them as a necessary part of human connection while not needing them to be true. A reading is offered from Pema Chodron's "Living Beautifully."
