With mind wandering, our single awareness has been captured by an inner narrative. There is autopilot and external awareness. These are outer phenomena. On autopilot, we are generally repeating activities we have learned unconsciously, such as driving or navigating on a regular journey. Then there is balanced focus where we can maintain our awareness and yet be sensitive to both inner and outer phenomena. In this class, we explored these both with meditation and by going through the experiences that we have that enable us to become aware of these different states of focus. ### Listen on Spotify --- ### Listen on your favourite podcast app [‎The Meditation Course Podcast: The Five Focus Meditation on Apple Podcasts‎Show The Meditation Course Podcast, Ep The Five Focus Meditation - 2 Mar 2023![](https://t0.gstatic.com/faviconV2?client=SOCIAL&type=FAVICON&fallback_opts=TYPE,SIZE,URL&url=https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-meditation-course-podcast/id1434349351?i=1000602464304&size=128)Apple Podcasts![](https://is3-ssl.mzstatic.com/image/thumb/Podcasts116/v4/cc/91/95/cc919516-f5bc-5893-eaca-e2b2547790de/mza_10794142938827909707.jpg/1200x630wp.png)](https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-meditation-course-podcast/id1434349351?i=1000602464304&ref=meditationcourse.live) From a class in The Deepening Course.
