  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.

• 00:29

  He is one of only a few dozen masters in the world authorized to teach what is called Sambo Zen.

• 00:34

  And I have found this particularly interesting and effective.

• 00:37

  And now he'll be your teacher.

• 00:39

  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.

  Welcome back to Meditation Monday with me, Henry Shukman.

• 01:15

  Thank you for joining.

  So I've already said that meditation can be an extraordinary journey of discovery.

• 01:22

  I believe that its deepest purpose is to reveal aspects of who we are and what our true relationship to the world really is, which can kind of blow our minds when we taste them.

• 01:36

  And of course, meditation is not the only way of finding out that kind of stuff, but it's an incredible way of grounding it into our lives and integrating it into the way we actually live.

• 01:46

  However, the vast majority of us, myself included, come to meditation not for those reasons, but to handle stress.

• 01:56

  We may not even realize we've got stress, we're just kind of miserable.

• 02:00

  I was in that category in my early to mid-20s when I started meditating.

• 02:04

  I was just really unhappy and had a good friend who meditated who was much less unhappy than I was, and I decided to try out what he was doing and it changed my life.
