FOR TEACHERS

These are videos that are also in other playlists, but that Steph has gathered here thinking they might be supportive or helpful for any teachers or meditation facilitators.

They are arranged in order of:
1. Description of Mindfulness & 5 Ways (including demonstration of guided meditation),
2. Common basic questions,
3. Questions of Subtler Aspects of the Practice,
4. Teaching interactively & about the teaching process,
5. Demonstration of Shinzen guiding for pain.

Hope these are helpful - and feedback is MOST welcome.
