In 2016, I began a 4-year accredited certification in *Personal Development & Educational Theory.* I'd be qualified already, but old Covid had other plans. I did manage, though, to marry a smoking hot *Neuropsychologist* during the pandemic, who verifies everything I teach from the academic perspective ✅ This podcast is whatever I feel like publishing on the day. It might be a *guided meditation* I'm releasing to Insight Timer ( insig.ht/dangoldfield ) , or it might be stream-of-consciousness nonsense.

When we investigate the breath, we can usually find both pleasant and unpleasant sensations. As sentient beings, we have the amazing power of directing our attention. In this practice, I guide you in developing the skill of placing your attention on whatever pleasant sensations are here to be found in the breath. This practice leads to great benefit, both for yourself and for those around you.
