Podcast Intro – Heart Attending

Welcome.
This is a space to slow down, to arrive, and to listen — not only with the mind, but with the heart and the body.

I’m Dina A. Kushnir. My work offers a feminine, embodied approach to somatic meditation and spiritual awakening — one that begins not with effort or striving, but with tenderness, presence, and loving attention.

At the center of my guidance is a practice I call Heart Attending: an invitation to awaken the heart to awareness, to meet yourself with kindness, and to allow loving attention to become the ground of healing and awakening.

In a world that often pulls us out of ourselves — into speed, fragmentation, and self-judgment — this practice invites a return. A return to the body as an ally. A return to the breath as a home. A return to the quiet wisdom already living within you.

Through Heart Attending, the body, breath, sensations, emotions, feelings, and perceptions become doorways — not obstacles — to presence and peace. As we cultivate gentle awareness and compassion toward ourselves, somatic and emotional healing unfold naturally, forming the foundation for all spiritual growth.

The roots of my work are in Buddhist Vipassana meditation, with a deep emphasis on embodied awareness and the direct experience of body sensations. For over three decades, I have guided meditation groups, retreats, and classes, integrating this lineage with somatic, body–mind, and emotional healing modalities from both Eastern and Western traditions.

In this podcast, you are invited to rest, to feel, and to remember what it is like to be at home in yourself.
There is nothing you need to fix, achieve, or become.

Just bring your presence.
And let the heart attend.

  • Module 10: Episode 1 - Holding difficult emotions
    Jan 21 2026

    This reflection offers a gentle meditation on meeting difficult emotions with loving awareness rather than resistance or fixing. guided from a place of personal and collective pain, it invites us to sit—especially when we are not well—and to discover the inner resource that can hold grief, anger, overwhelm, and tenderness alike. Through simple presence with the body, breath, and environment, we are guided to recognize the spaciousness of the heart: a loving attention that allows everything to be as it is. Like the sky holding all weather, this inner spaciousness becomes a refuge and a strength, enabling us to hold our own suffering and the suffering of others with compassion and to plant seeds of kindness and care in the midst of uncertainty.

    The invitation is simple: when life is hard, sit. Allow. Hold whatever is present in loving attention. This is the practice. This is the resource. This is love.

  • Module 9: Episode 5 - The Mirror Mind
    Jan 14 2026

    The Mirror Mind

    Take a breath. Let’s look into the quiet mirror of awareness together.

    Mindfulness is not a task or a state to achieve — it’s a way of seeing,
    a clear mirror through which life is quietly known.

    Mindfulness is like a mirror.
    Not something to polish for perfection,
    but something that simply reflects what is.

    Thoughts arise, emotions pass, sensations move —
    and awareness remains still, clear, awake.

    The mirror doesn’t take sides.
    It doesn’t say I like this or I don’t like that.
    It simply receives.
    And in that receiving, we find peace.

    When we rest attention in the body,
    in the breath,
    in this exact moment —
    we rediscover that simple knowing:
    the mind as mirror,
    life as reflection,
    everything appearing and dissolving
    in awareness that needs nothing to be whole.

    A Note:
    This reflection was born in our shared inquiry into mindfulness —
    the way awareness holds all things without grasping.
    May this simple practice help you see the clear, luminous mirror within your own heart.

  • Module 9: Episode 4 - Meet life moment by moment
    Jan 7 2026

    Meet life moment by moment
    This meditation invites us to explore how we meet life in each moment — through sensations of warmth or coolness, comfort or discomfort, desire or aversion. By noticing our natural tendencies to grasp, reject, or drift away, we begin to see that true awareness lies in simply being with what is. Through gentle curiosity and presence, every breath becomes a way to meet life — just as it unfolds.
