A Guided Meditation for the New Moon in Capricorn

For this New Moon Meditation we will explore how to skillfully work with the quality of determination in our meditation practice. This will be a fairly basic mindfulness meditation where we will practice grounding and anchoring our attention in the body. We will also bring some awareness to our relationship to the object we are using to anchor our attention and see if we connect more firmly with this object, aiming and sustaining our attention in a focused way. We will practice balancing our determination and using just enough effort to sustain mindful awareness and see for ourselves how we can use the quality of determination in a wholesome way in our practice and in our daily lives.
