Is traditional talk therapy as effective as it could be? If individualism and holding too tightly to a single identity is what ails us, perhaps reifying the past in a one-on-one setting is not the most powerful method for moving forward.  

In this episode, Sean Fargo speaks with Jake Eagle, licensed psychotherapist and co-author of The Power of Awe: Overcome Burnout & Anxiety, Ease Chronic Pain, Find Clarity & Purpose - In Less Than 1 Minute Per Day. After 30 years of practice, he now refers to himself as a meta-therapist, coaching and mentoring people to see what’s possible with just a simple shift in consciousness.

By turning our attention to sensation and energy around and within the body, we can access increasingly more subtle levels of inner wisdom. But where does the energy of the body begin and end? 

In this guided meditation, Mindfulness Exercises founder Sean Fargo guides us through an advanced body scan practice. We move our awareness clockwise around the body, above and below, sensing into the energy within and all around us.  

Please listen in a safe, quiet place where you can be relatively free from distraction. Find a posture that balances comfort with alertness, whether standing, seated, or lying down. May this meditation be of benefit to you in your mindfulness journey.

What if you could improve your health and wellbeing, not only for yourself but for generations to come, just by practicing mindfulness? 

The modern science of mindfulness took a turn with the discovery of neuroplasticity - the simple fact that our brains can change. Now, we’re learning more about the mind-body connection and how meditation influences not only our brain, but our physiology and the expression of our genes. 

In this episode, Dr. Richie Davidson, a pioneer in mindfulness and meditation research, highlights the breakthroughs of modern science which have helped us to better understand both meditation and ourselves.

This talk is a brief excerpt from Dr. Richie Davidson’s guest teacher presentation to those enrolled in the Mindfulness Exercises Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Training Program.

If you could realize the stress-reducing and heart-opening benefits of mindfulness with a practice that takes less than 1 minute per day, would you practice more often?

Neuroscience has shown that when it comes to changing our brains, consistency is more important than the duration of our practice. But it’s not always easy to fit in a meditation daily. Microdosing mindfulness might be the solution we need to practice more often, and with less resistance.  

In this episode, Sean Fargo speaks with Jake Eagle, co-author of The Power of Awe: Overcome Burnout & Anxiety, Ease Chronic Pain, Find Clarity & Purpose - In Less Than 1 Minute Per Day. For an interview with Jake’s co-author, Michael Amster, listen to episode #048, The Power of Awe, with Michael Amster and Sean Fargo.

Most of us only want to be happy and free from our pain. But how comfortable are we with the sensation of happiness? It can be challenging to be present with this emotion, especially in the face of so much global suffering. But it’s of great benefit to both ourselves and the world to be capable of connecting to joy. When working with happiness in meditation, we do so not as a means of bypassing or avoiding negative feelings, but to spend time familiarizing ourselves with positive emotion.

In this guided meditation with Sean Fargo, we’re invited to cultivate feelings of happiness by bringing to mind a past joyful experience. By working with memory, we invite happiness into the present moment. In this way, happiness is always available, here and now. 

Listen in a safe, quiet place where you can be relatively free from distraction. Find a posture that balances comfort with alertness, whether standing, seated, or lying down. May this meditation be of benefit to you in your mindfulness journey.

When was the last time you lost yourself in a moment of awe? For many of us, awe is associated with life’s most significant, profound moments. But awe is ever present and always available, even in the ordinary. 

In this episode, we learn about a 15-second practice that can help us become more available for the experience of everyday awe. Research shows that regularly connecting to this unique emotion reduces stress, anxiety, and burnout, minimizes chronic pain, and helps us live with more joy, clarity, ease and wonder.

Meditation’s benefits are often overhyped, while its discomfort, challenges, or ongoing adverse experiences tend to be little mentioned - even though the latter happens to around 1 in 10 meditators. This disparity can leave those who struggle with meditation feeling very alone and unsure where to find help.

In this episode, we hear from clinical psychologist, professor and mindfulness expert Dr. Willoughby Britton. Willoughby presents a thorough, research-based overview on how to identify the adverse effects of meditation. She explains which ones are most likely to happen during mindfulness-based meditations. Perhaps more importantly, she offers both practitioners and teachers suggestions on what to do and where to go for help with the challenges of contemplative practice.

How often do we pause to ask the heart what it might want most in this moment? Most of us spend our days stuck in our heads, problem-solving and operating out of habit, disconnected from the heart and its needs. If we stopped to listen, what would the heart say?

In this guided meditation, Sean Fargo invites us to sense into the heart with caring curiosity, to enhance loving acceptance of whatever is present in the heart right now. We are guided to notice the presence of opposites - light or heavy, dry or moist, pleasant or unpleasant, numb or full of emotion. Perhaps in our hearts, we hold all of these things. 

Listen in a safe, quiet place. Find a posture that balances comfort with alertness, whether standing, seated, or lying down. May this meditation be of benefit to you in your mindfulness journey.

Are you able to offer yourself loving-kindness in the midst of your moments of suffering? Sometimes, we find it far easier to extend compassion to others than to ourselves. But all beings everywhere are worthy of this grace, including us.  

In this episode, Sean Fargo helps us better understand self-compassion - what it is, and also, what it is not. Sean explains that self-compassion is not an all-or-nothing endeavor, and offers advice on how we might begin to ease into this feeling of self-love.
