Ajahn Appicchato conducts an intermediate/ advanced meditation class for approximately one hour. Ajahn Appicchato speaks about why we choose to meditate, and teaches that it is beneficial to practice for even a short amount of time. For the meditation, Ajahn encourages us to repeat a mantra such as 'feelings are changeable' while focusing on sensations of breathing in different parts of the body.
