  • 28 - Not Extremely Deep Thoughts #2 - 45 Seconds to a New You
    Because Jay is inherently lazy, he's by far the best person to offer advice on how you can transform yourself in the new year. All it takes is one tiny tweak to your routine--like walking a block out of the way or saying hello to a stranger. So put down that long list you're making, give this episode a listen, and keep it simple.

  • 27 - Not Extremely Deep Thoughts #1 - Pete Opens the Robe

    Pete has stepped in with a highly no-nonsense and helpful guide to doing that thing we're always talking about on Meditate This! Yup, meditation.

    Hear why Pete doesn't care if you like him (he so does) and why it's okay if your meditation makes your mind race even more (it's inevitable). Also, it's funny.

    This is THE first installment of a soon-to-be wildly popular series titled "Not Extremely Deep Thoughts." Sit back, relax, and enjoy. And remember this moment when you're watching Pete & Jay accept the Nobel Prize for Peace in 2032.

  • 26 - Rev. Kat Katsanis - Semel, M.A.

    Explore the unseen world all around us by gaining new sight and perspective from Reverend Kat Katsanis-Semel. A professional intuitive with clients around the world, Kat has studied with Deepak Chopra, writes regularly for the Huffington Post, and is the Mindfulness Chaplain at NYU.

    In this talk—which Pete believes somehow gave him powers of intuition, too—we focus on the notion of knowing and how we can all look a little closer at the signs and patterns in our lives. Just don't expect Pete to guess what number you're thinking.

  • 25 - Mindfulness/Schmindfulness

    Is it funny? (maybe)

    Is it insightful? (debatable)

    Is it under a half hour? YES!!!

    So listen to Episode 25 where Pete And Jay talk about their experiences moving and the messy art of real change.

  • 23 - Liam Wilson - Part 2

    Part 2 - On his Twitter page, @liamwilson describes himself as, of course, the bass player for Dillinger Escape Plan—a math-core (that means they play really complex stuff) band whose "One of Us Is The Killer" was named the #7 metal album of 2013 by Rolling Stone. But he also makes claim to being a "Good Vibe Technician," "Pillar Of Rock," piece of "Dust In The Wind," and "Modern-Primitive Whactivist." After listening to this wild ride of an interview (the very first for Meditate This with a bonafide rock star!) you'll get just what he means. And clearly we can all learn from a guy who meditates daily to help stay present in front of some of the craziest fans in all of rock-and-roll.
