<p dir="ltr">We're in the midst of an exciting evolution of the overall 10% Happier project. In our quest to make this podcast more actionable – to help you operationalize all the game-changing ideas you encounter on this pod – we're now offering guided meditations to accompany each full episode of the show, available to paid subscribers at <a href="http://danharris.com/">DanHarris.com</a>. For the month of September, those meditations will come from <a href="https://vinnyferraro.org/">Vinny Ferraro</a>, a Buddhist teacher in the Insight Meditation tradition. </p> <p dir="ltr">In this bonus episode, you'll hear our head of content, DJ Cashmere, in conversation with Vinny, who shares his backstory: a tough kid from Brooklyn who found the Buddhist tradition to be the most helpful thing in his life. <br /> <br /></p> <p dir="ltr">Related Episodes:</p> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><a href= "https://www.danharris.com/p/a-radical-buddhist-approach-to-making-610?r=4o5o&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false"> A Radical Buddhist Approach To Making This The Best Year Of Your Life | Vinny Ferraro</a></p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation"><a href= "https://www.danharris.com/p/three-buddhist-practices-for-getting-233?r=4o5o&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false"> Three Buddhist Practices For Getting Your Sh*t Together | Vinny Ferraro</a></p> </li> </ul> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">On Sunday, September 21st from 1-5pm ET, join Dan and Leslie Booker at the New York Insight Meditation Center in NYC as they lead a workshop titled, "Heavily Meditated – The Dharma of Depression + Anxiety."
