Martin Goodson
Editor of The Zen Gateway website and practitioner of Zen Buddhism.
In this podcast Jamie & Martin discuss the necessity of working with the emotions, as a key to the transformation of the heart and laying down the delusion of 'I'.
Jamie and Martin discuss what an emotion is from both a Buddhist and mindfulness perspective; the somatic and cognitive components of affect and why it is important not to judge emotions as something to 'get rid of'. Instead to recognise their elemental basis and the importance of humanising them so that they can inform 'being' rather than become squandered in obsessive compulsive behaviour.
