Jon Kabat-Zinn on the practicalities of starting a meditation practice, being fully present with no agenda, and letting go of “the story of me.” In this episode we talk about:
• The nitty gritty practicalities of starting a practice
• How he’s learned to be more relaxed about his practice—including advocating for meditating in bed
• How to practice being fully present with no agenda
• How investigating your motivations—something most people don’t do— can help you be more mindful
• How to practice letting go of “the story of me”
Jon Kabat-Zinn, PhD, is professor of medicine emeritus at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. Back in the 1970s, he came up with something called Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, or MBSR, which is a secular way of teaching Buddhist meditation. He’s written many books, including Full Catastrophe Living; Wherever You Go, There You Are; and Coming to Our Senses. His latest book is called Mindfulness Meditation for Pain Relief.
