Julie Lythcott-Haims on the Power of Telling Your Truth

In this powerful conversation from the Mindfulness Exercises Podcast, Sean Fargo speaks with Julie Lythcott-Haims — New York Times bestselling author, activist, politician, and former Stanford dean — about how mindfulness can help us face shame, rewrite old stories, and create space for authentic belonging. Julie shares how she first discovered mindfulness in her 30s, how body awareness helped her get out of her own way, and how storytelling became a tool for healing unprocessed pain. She reflects on writing Real American, her memoir on race and belonging, and the liberation that came from releasing stories she had carried for decades. ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 – Intro 04:11 – mindfulness as a path to self-awareness 06:40 – Writing as emotional release 10:35 – Holding space with compassion 14:41 – The courage of vulnerability 21:16 – Helicopter Parenting: lesson in parenting and self-growth 30:25 – Post-It notes of connection 33:00 – Freeing others through your story 36:57 – Releasing fear and finding courage to be seen 38:25 – A moment of belonging with a taxi driver 41:03 – Building bridges across difference 46:25 – Living authentically with compassion 🔗Know more about Julie Julie Lythcott-Haims: julielythcotthaims.com Substack: julielythcotthaims.substack.com TED Talk: How to Raise an Adult Books: How to Raise an Adult, Real American, Your Turn: How to Be an Adult 🧘 Want to teach mindfulness with skill, depth, and compassion?

Befriending Body, Emotion, And Spirit, A Meditation with Sean Fargo

Befriending Body, Emotion, And Spirit, A Meditation with Sean Fargo

This episode is sponsored by our Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification. Register today for 80% off at ⁠⁠https://mindfulnessexercises.com/certify⁠ Every emotion has value, even those we might label as uncomfortable or unwelcome. Anger, for example, can help us set healthy boundaries. Grief can help us process loss, and jealousy can provide us with deep insight. When we allow ourselves to feel what we feel, there’s always something to be learned. In this mindfulness meditation guided by Sean Fargo, we are invited to tenderly listen to the body, the heart and spirit, to sense into what emotions are present and to practice presence with them. By befriending the entirety of our experience, we identify not with fleeting phenomena, but with the loving awareness that takes it all in.  Listen in a safe, quiet place where you can be relatively free from distraction. Practice with eyes opened or closed, in a posture that balances comfort with alertness. May this meditation be of benefit to you in your mindfulness journey. Sean Fargo is a former Buddhist monk and founder of the online resource, Mindfulness Exercises. Mindfulness Exercises has shared mindfulness with over 6 million people via free and premium services including downloadable meditations, meditation scripts, mindfulness worksheets, courses, content and live online retreats.

Register today for 80% off at ⁠⁠https://mindfulnessexercises.com/certify⁠ Imposter syndrome is felt by new and experienced mindfulness teachers alike. It is a common human experience.

Bringing Curiosity to Shame, A Meditation with Sean Fargo

Bringing Curiosity to Shame, A Meditation with Sean Fargo

This episode is sponsored by our Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification. Register today for 80% off at ⁠⁠https://mindfulnessexercises.com/certify⁠ Shame is the uncomfortable feeling we face having done something we don’t feel good about. Unlike regret, the mindful acknowledgment of a mistake, shame has a quality of self-judgment to it. And whereas guilt is focused on the action, shame is directed to our self as a whole. This can make it challenging to address and compassionately let go of our shame.   In this mindfulness meditation guided by Sean Fargo, we’re invited to face our shame directly. By bringing curiosity to shame and how it manifests in the body, we may find that it does not define us, nor does it have the power we once thought it did.   Listen in a safe, quiet place where you can be relatively free from distraction. Practice with eyes opened or closed, in a posture that balances comfort with alertness. May this meditation be of benefit to you in your mindfulness journey. Sean Fargo is a former Buddhist monk and founder of the online resource, Mindfulness Exercises.

Acknowledging Fear, A Meditation with Sean Fargo

Acknowledging Fear, A Meditation with Sean Fargo

This episode is sponsored by our Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification. Register today for 80% off at ⁠⁠https://mindfulnessexercises.com/certify⁠ We all have fears. Some live on the surface, impacting our everyday lives, while others are more subtle. We may experience fear of failure, unworthiness, fear of the unknown, or fear of being alone. It’s also common to fear abandonment, engulfment, or the ultimate fear: non-existence, the fear of death and dying.  Although it may not be possible to become completely fearless, we can find more spaciousness and peace by being with and exploring our fears. In this guided meditation, Sean Fargo invites us to open to our fears. As we sit with whatever fear that arises, exploring with a caring curiosity, we might find that our fears are not what we thought they were. They may even seem less scary. Listen in a safe, quiet place where you can be relatively free from distraction. Practice with eyes opened or closed, in a posture that balances comfort with alertness.
