About this episode

<p dir="ltr">If you've ever felt like your inner life is a clenched fist — tight belly, buzzing chest, racing mind — this conversation is for you. In this live session from our <a href= "http://danharris.com/">DanHarris.com</a> sangha, the great Vinny Ferraro takes us on a kind of "return to the body" safari: soft-belly practice, heart-work, nervous system regulation, forgiving the seemingly unforgivable, and what it actually means to stop becoming and just be here.</p> <p dir="ltr">We also get into the weirdness and power of meditating together online, the comparing mind (yes, the Dalai Lama has one too), why walking meditation is a secret weapon for restless brains, and how both Dan and Vinny were dragged, kicking and screaming, into practices they once thought were total BS.</p> <p dir="ltr">Vinny brings his trademark mix of streetwise honesty, humor, and deep tenderness. This one is about learning to meet yourself — and the world — with a little less armor and a lot more care.</p> <p dir="ltr">Join Dan live every Tuesday at 4pm ET for these weekly meditations and Q&As — plus access to all our guided meditations — by signing up at <a href= "https://www.danharris.com/">DanHarris.com</a>.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Related Episodes:</p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://www.danharris.com/p/you-cant-hate-yourself-into-becoming?r=4o5o&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false"> You Can't Hate Yourself Into Becoming a Better Person | Vinny Ferraro</a></p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://www.danharris.com/p/how-to-make-time-for-the-things-you?r=4o5o&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false"> How to Make Time for the Things You Actually Care About | Vinny Ferraro</a></p> <p dir="ltr"><br /> <br /></p> <p dir="ltr">Join Dan's online community <a href= "http://www.danharris.com/">here</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Follow Dan on social: <a href= "https://bit.ly/3tGigG5">Instagram</a>, <a href= "https://bit.ly/3FOA84J">TikTok</a></p> <p dir="ltr">Subscribe to our <a href= "https://bit.ly/3FybRzD">YouTube Channel</a></p> <p><strong><br /> <br /></strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Thanks to our sponsors: </p> <p dir="ltr"><strong>Airbnb</strong>: Your home might be worth more than you think.
