Let People Be Who They Are - Fall Asleep to Buddhist Teachings & Zen Stories for Peace & Letting Go

Hi everyone, we are now live on Spotify here🌛✨: https://open.spotify.com/show/033EUu4lqsZ8N44nRHO8Ar Tonight we explore what the Buddha and the Zen masters understood about the people closest to us, and why the ones we love are so often the ones we find hardest to accept. Through calm Buddhist stories and Zen teachings for sleep, we look at judgment, blame, and the wish for others to change, and discover the freedom that comes from letting people be who they are. This episode draws on more than two thousand years of Buddhist wisdom: teachings on compassion, mindful listening, right speech, acceptance, and the deep connection between us that judgment hides from view. It is a long, slow journey for anyone lying awake with a relationship on their mind, and for anyone who simply wants a peaceful voice to rest with. Designed for deep relaxation, sleep, and gentle reflection. No prior knowledge of Buddhism or meditation is needed. If this brought you some peace, you are welcome to subscribe for more Zen stories and Buddhist teachings for sleep, and to share it with someone who could use a calmer night. Original script, stories and commentary written and produced by Midnight Monk. ✨🧘🌙
