Kabat-Zinn on the nitty gritty practicalities of starting a practice, being fully present with no agenda, and 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.



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"
