Based at Sanshin-ji, in Bloomington, Indiana, Sanshin exists to provide intensive practice of zazen in the style of Kosho Uchiyama-roshi, informed by thorough study of Dogen’s teachings and communal work. Sanshin offers opportunities for daily practice, weekly Dharma talks, monthly retreats, and a three-month ango (intensive practice period).

A collection of guided meditations, interviews, and talks with Barbara Newell focused on enhancing and improving your mindfulness journey. Barbara Newell is a mindfulness and meditation teacher. For over 12 years, she trained and taught as a Buddhist nun in Plum Village in France under Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh. During that time, she not only mastered her skills, but had the opportunity to teach throughout the world as part of ongoing retreats. Barbara left monastic life and returned to the United States in 2015 with a mission to bring the knowledge and experience she had gained to a wider audience. Since then, she has worked with numerous other mindfulness experts including Tara Brach and Jack Kornfield. Barbara brings a unique perspective to mindfulness and meditation, as she was an accomplished lawyer in Washington, DC prior to her monastic life. She understands the stresses and challenges of modern life and can provide practical advice and guidance on how to successfully integrate techniques of mindfulness into a busy schedule.

Barbara Newell and Matthew Aldrich discuss our natural resistance to change. Given the pandemic, we have all been subject to an enormous amount of unexpected change. This gives rise to stress and anxiety. Barbara and Matthew discuss methods to ease the resistance and creatively open to the possibilities presented by change.

Visit barbaranewell.com or thewaytowellbeing.com for more resources. Barbara offers free initial consultations which can be booked here.

The Way to Well-Being is a collaboration between Barbara Newell, mindfulness + meditation teacher and a former Zen Buddhist nun with Thich Nhat Hanh, and Matthew Aldrich, mindfulness student.

As a newcomer to mindfulness, Matthew saw his meditation practice developing quickly and easily with Barbara’s instruction. He found applied mindfulness practices to be extremely helpful for relating skillfully with emotional reactivity. While there are numerous books about mindfulness, the information can sometimes be conflicting, too conceptual, or just inadequate with regard to the actual implementation in a busy modern life.

> It became apparent that straightforward, practical guidance could help other people find their way to long-term, sustained well-being through mindfulness.

In each episode we’ll be exploring different varieties of people, relationships and situations that we find irritating, difficult or painful. Together with a number of Zen friends, I’ll be discussing how the practices of Buddhism and mindfulness can help us see our difficult people – in arenas as diverse as fellow commuters, the workplace, neighbours and family – as troublesome buddhas, our greatest teachers.
