Plus: How to find practices that work for you, what "mindfulness" actually means, and a new audiobook out now.
Sebene Selassie has been meditating for decades, survived cancer three times, and still says the practice isn't a magic bullet. That honesty is kind of the point.
Today we're sharing a sneak preview of Dan's new audiobook, Even You Can Meditate, co-authored with Sebene. Think of it as a practical rescue plan for anyone who feels too distracted, overwhelmed, or skeptical to start (or restart) a meditation practice.
In this preview, Dan and Seb cover:
-
Why "mindfulness" is actually a bit of a misnomer — and what the practice is really about
-
What meditation can and can't do for you (it won't solve everything, but the benefits tend to kick in faster than you'd expect)
-
How to find the style that works for your specific brain, body, and life — including if sitting still feels impossible
-
The role of intention, and why getting clear on your "why" can become a surprisingly powerful engine for keeping a practice going
-
The five hindrances — the predictable challenges that come up for almost every meditator — and how to work with them instead of against them
