‪@JeffWarrenMeditation‬ joins this podcast episode with ‪@danharris4096‬ and explores:
* What it might mean to make your whole life a practice;
* How to connect with your baseline okayness;
* Mindfulness of seeing;
* Koan practice;
* Running as practice;
* Being your own teacher;
* How (and why) to make your practice social;
* Practicing with ADHD, a condition with which Jeff has lived with for many years.
It is very easy to think about your meditation practice as being quarantined to
those minutes when you’re dutifully sitting down with your eyes closed. But
actually the point is to turn your whole life into a practice. Our guest Jeff
Warren has a very broad, capacious understanding of the concept of practice. There’s formal meditation practice, but also: movement practice, work practice, relationship practice, sleep practice, art practice, and more. It’s really about the goal, which few of us will ever fully attain, of turning everything you do into something intentional and illuminating.

Ten Percent Happier with Dan Harris
Dan Harris is a fidgety, skeptical journalist who had a panic attack on live
national television, which led him to try something he otherwise never would
have considered: meditation. He went on to write the bestselling book, 10%
Happier. On this show, Dan talks with eminent meditation teachers, top
scientists, and even the odd celebrity. Guests include everyone from His
Holiness the Dalai Lama to Brené Brown to Karamo from Queer Eye. On some
episodes, Dan ventures into the deep end of the pool, covering subjects such as
enlightenment and psychedelics. On other episodes, it’s science-based techniques
for issues such as anxiety, productivity, and relationships. Dan's approach is
seemingly modest, but secretly radical: happiness is a skill you can train, just
like working your bicep in the gym. Your progress may be incremental at first,
but like any good investment, it compounds over time.
New episodes come out every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for free.
