15 分钟Hello boys and girls, ladies and germs, this is Tim Ferriss.
Welcome to another episode of the Tim Ferriss Show.
This episode is a brand new experiment called Meditation Monday.
That means in addition to my long form interviews each week, every Monday I will be bringing you a short 10 minute or so meditation which will help you for the rest of the week.
Over this four episode series, you'll develop a Zen toolkit specifically to help you find greater calm, peace and effectiveness in your daily life.
The teacher Henry Schuchman has been on my podcast twice before.
He is one of only a few dozen masters in the world authorized to teach what is called Sambo Zen.
And I have found this particularly interesting and effective.
And now he'll be your teacher.
I've been using Henry's app the Way once, often twice a day for the last few months and it has lowered my anxiety more than I thought possible.
As a listener of the show, you yourself can get 30 free sessions by visiting thewayapp.com Tim so if you like what you hear in these meditations, which will be valuable in and of themselves, you can get 30 free sessions by going to the Way app.
And for the time being, please enjoy this Meditation Monday with Henry Shukman.
Hello, welcome to Meditation Monday.
I'm Henry Shukman.
I'm a Zen master, a meditation teacher, a poet, an author.
I've been meditating a long time, since my mid-20s, and it's been the most important thread in my life in terms of not just sort of self care and maintenance and generally being much happier than I might otherwise have been.
It's also been a journey of incredible discovery.
I think the most crucial, vital, beautiful discovery of a lifetime in a certain sense, because it can show us stuff about who and what we really are and what our true relationship with this world actually is.
But the most important initial foundational function of meditation for most of us is going to be just in getting more present, more grounded, more centered and less stressed.
It's a great intervention for nervous system regulation and the whole modern mindfulness exponential spread of meditation as a practice has been centered around that stress reduction.
