Anxiety is a modern-day epidemic. In this podcast, Buddhist monk, Gen Kelsang Rabten, uses his own experience of anxiety to explain how to deal with this debilitating habit of mind by applying specific, powerful meditation techniques. He describes how anxious thoughts are tricks our mind plays on us and how, by beginning to first identify these thoughts and not believe them, we can dial the intensity of our anxiety right back. He explains one fascinating meditation that Buddha explained as being the best meditation to combat anxiety - and it is not what you would expect! A fascinating and in depth look at how we can transform the power of our mind from being one that harms, to one that helps us to become a powerful, fearless person. 00:00:00 Intro00:00:15 Anxiety is uncontrolled fear 00:06:07 Letting go of anxious-inducing thoughts00:09:47 An exercise to remove the fear from anxiety. 00:24:32 The relief of letting go of the fear of failure00:30:02 The best meditation for dealing with anxiety according to Buddha00:38:12 Facing fear, live with a super power of truth00:43:00 The incredible power of the mind00:53:28 "Always remember, it is just the mind"01:00:03 Turning our anxiety into compassionBook referencesLiving meaning fully, dying joyfully: https://kadampa.org/book/living-meaningfully-dying-joyfullyGen Rabten is the Resident Teacher in Kadampa Meditation Center in Australia and Melbourne https://www.meditateinmelbourne.org/The participants of these podcasts are practicing meditation according to the New Kadampa Tradition, which has over a thousand meditation centers worldwide.

In today's episode, Gen Gomlam delves into the profound and often uncharted territory of death and dying. Having worked as a Nurse for over 30 years she has experience of helping others in the final stages of life, and more recently faced up to the possibility of her own death. As a Buddhist nun she shares insights into what actually happens when we die and how that can affect our life in a positive way. In a society that frequently shies away from discussions about mortality, it is refreshing to bring these essential conversations to the forefront.00:00 Introduction01:15 Exploring Hospice Nursing in Rural New Mexico: Challenges and Rewards04:00 What Really Happens When We Die?
