This week's podcast episode is an Equanimity practice. Join me for a guided meditation, exploring the potential for steadiness in the heart and mind.

Equanimity, or Upekkha (in Pali), is a natural by-product of Mindfulness Meditation. We grow our steadiness a little bit every time we come back to our anchor in the present moment. And, our steadiness also gets stronger every time we’re able to observe our reactive thoughts and emotions without getting caught up in them.

Equanimity practice is also a form of meditation in itself. It is one of the Four Brahma Viharas, or Divine Abodes, along with Loving-Kindness, Compassion, and Altruistic Joy. These are sometimes called “heart practices” within Mindfulness or Insight Meditation.

As we develop Equanimity, we are developing the capacity to meet life fully, with all of its joys and challenges.

In this meditation, we will cultivate equanimity through the felt sense of groundedness and spaciousness in the body, through imagery, and by using Equanimity phrases.

The Equanimity phrases I offer are:

  • May I feel steady and grounded.
  • May my view be wise and spacious, free from reactivity.
  • May I care AND let go.
  • May I know what to do.

Feel free to do this practice while sitting on a chair or on a cushion. For this meditation, it is helpful to be upright and to feel your feet or sitting bones touching the support of the floor or chair.

P. S. If you want to learn more about Equanimity, Episode 21 was a “Deeper Dive” podcast episode on this topic. That talk covers some important nuances to Equanimity practice, like how it is different from apathy or numbness, and the connection between Equanimity and states like courage or confidence.
