How To Find Calm in a World on Fire | Pico Iyer

How To Find Calm in a World on Fire | Pico Iyer

The antidote to a noisy, chaotic world.

Pico Iyer is the acclaimed and bestselling author of more than a dozen books translated into twenty-three languages, most recently the nationally bestselling Aflame: Learning from Silence.

In this episode we talk about:

  • Why and how Pico found himself spending a lot of time at a silent monastery
  • What he's learned about the power and potency of silence
  • Why so many of us fear silence
  • When silence is a tonic, and when it's a weapon or shield
  • Why taking time out of your life is deeply beneficial — both for you and the people around you
  • How Pico takes what he learns at the monastery into his daily life
  • A wise approach to the news
  • Travel as a tool for transformation
