EFR 894: Why Modern Life Keeps You Suffering (and How to Break Free) with Ishan Shivanand


Listen Later

 This episode is brought to you by Fatty15, Audible and Comrad Socks.

Today we welcome spiritual teacher and mental health researcher Ishan Shivanand as he shares powerful wisdom from his new book The Practice of Immortality. Raised in a monastery in India, Ishan bridges ancient yogic science with modern mental health research. He reveals how practices like breathwork, mindfulness, and daily gratitude can help you overcome distractions, build resilience, and live with peace—without giving up the modern life you love. We also explore what true immortality means, why fear, competitiveness, and anger are the root causes of modern suffering, and how meditation can transform your relationship with yourself and the world.
