In this episode, Dan and Sharon discuss:

  • The new edition of Ten Percent Happier
  • What has changed in the meditation space in the last decade
  • The line between cynicism to skepticism
  • The climate of despair and nihilism
  • Working with the inner critic
  • Dan’s drug-fueled panic attack on-air
  • Big life changes are not often a straight shot
  • Dan’s path finding meditation
  • The Jew-Bu movement towards Asia
  • The connection of Dan’s father and Joseph Goldstein’s family
  • Dan meeting Mark Epstein
  • The first time Sharon saw Birkenstocks
  • Dan’s first meditation retreat
  • How lovingkindness has affected Dan
  • “The Way of the Worrier” list from Ten Percent Happier
  • Dan’s son teaching lovingkindness meditation

Dan closes the conversation with a guided lovingkindness meditation. You can learn more about Dan’s work and get a copy of Ten Percent Happier, the newly reissued book on his website.
