Have you ever had those moments of inescapable boredom? It persists like an itch you can't scratch. Often in those moments, we desperately try to find something to satisfy or entertain ourselves. But maybe we should stop doing that. Barry and Stephanie discuss their own experiences with boredom. For a while, Barry had the itch come up in his meditation practice. Stephanie recalls moments of boredom in childhood and times she grappled with her attention span. Together they provide insight into why boredom can come up in meditation, how to move through it and the perception you can find beneath. And that perception is a gift for you to use.
