A New Way of Being

Beyond the Voice in Your Head: A Conversation with Sam Harris


Listen Later

In this bitesize episode, I speak to neuroscientist and Waking Up app creator Sam Harris about the real purpose of meditation — not just calming the mind, but seeing through the illusion that we are the mind.

We talk about why people struggle with their thoughts, how we get tangled in them, and what it means to see thoughts for what they really are — fleeting appearances in awareness.

As I often say: you are not your thoughts — you’re aware of them. This shift changes everything.
