Loving-awareness allows a profound shift of identity from a small limited sense of self to one of spacious wisdom. Exploring questions about freedom and identity are at the core of Buddhist practice. Examine how these two themes are intertwined and look in the mirror with a fresh perspective.

In the moment of looking in the mirror, you become the witness to this physical incarnation. You see the sagging or wrinkles, or whatever it is, but there is also a knowing that this is just the body; it’s not who you are. You are the awareness that is taking stock.
