There are a great variety of mindfulness practices and there are benefits to each. They are not, however, the same.
A complete mindfulness practice, one that leads to awakening, is not merely a training in paying attention, but in connection and love.
In this episode, Sean Fargo speaks with Zen teacher, author, and poet Henry Shukman on the benefits of meeting each moment with awareness and an open heart.
Henry Shukman is an author, poet and a teacher in the Sanbo Zen lineage. He has taught meditation at Google, Harvard Business School, Esalen Institute, Colorado College, and United World College among other venues. He is the Spiritual Director Emeritus of Mountain Cloud Zen Center in Santa Fe, New Mexico and co-founder of The Way, a meditation app that guides users on a single pathway of training toward the deeper possibilities of meditation.
Shukman’s most recent book, Original Love: The Four Inns On The Path Of Awakening, is an antidote to the suffering of our times, helping us heal from hyper-individualism, divisiveness and disconnection.
