Two-Part Series Unlock the Power of Meditation: Embrace, Transform, Thrive (Four Phases and Six Practices for Responding to Challenging Emotions, Thoughts, Sensations with Richard C. Miller, PhD)
A Practical Guide to Meeting Life with Presence and Ease
Join Richard C. Miller, PhD for this two-part live series offering a deep, experiential exploration of the Four Phases and Six Practices of “Welcoming”—a comprehensive approach to meeting challenging emotions, thoughts, and sensations with clarity, confidence, and compassion.
While meditation is often seen as a pathway to inner peace and resilience, the journey can also awaken long-suppressed sensations, deep-seated emotions, and conditioned patterns that leave us feeling uncertain or overwhelmed. Rather than resisting these experiences, this course reveals how to welcome them as opportunities for transformation, self-understanding, and inner freedom.
Over the course of two immersive sessions, you will learn how to:
Shift from avoidance to skillful engagement.
Transform overwhelm into insight and understanding.
Cultivate resilience, clarity, and a sustainable meditation practice.
Navigate restlessness, anxiety, doubt, and limiting beliefs with wisdom and grace.
The practices you’ll explore combine mindful inquiry, somatic awareness, and cognitive reframing, empowering you to meet life’s challenges—both on and off the meditation cushion—as doorways to growth and liberation.
Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned practitioner, this course offers a practical framework for responding to any moment, no matter how complex, with a grounded presence and an open heart.
