#22 Gratitude Meditation

#22 Gratitude Meditation

Today's meditation is inspired by practices from both the inimitable Fred Rogers, and Māori culture. I hope you feel gratitude and connection as you contemplate the many in your life who have loved you into being.

#21 Flourishing

In today's conversation I review the book Flourish: The Art of Building Meaning, Joy, and Fulfillment, by Daniel Coyle. I ask lots of reflection questions and invite some experimentation on the ideas and concepts we explore. It's a lovely book that dovetails nicely with the principles on this podcast. I hope you enjoy this brief intro!

#20 What the @#%*?!

In this conversation with Manav I do my best to model listening well, and give commentary on the process. It's all about cussing, so that's fun :) To watch either the full conversation or the edited version on YouTube click here: https://youtu.be/jyILcXHqVNE

#19 Listening Well

Amongst our greatest desires as humans is the simple but all too elusive experience of just being understood and accepted as we are. The practice of "active listening" is one way we can effectively give another person that experience, thereby significantly improving the quality of our relationships and dramatically increasing the chances of being understood ourselves. In today's conversation I explain the process of active listening in the event you'd like to practice in your relationships. Next week's conversation will be of me demonstrating active listening with someone else, to help you get an even better idea of how it works (assuming I do it well!). I hope it's thought-provoking and helpful!
