When Your Mind Won't Stop, Try This | Vinny Ferraro

<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.

Why You're Always Half-Stressed — and How to Chill | Christiane Wolf

<p dir="ltr">If you feel like you spend most of your day on edge — not totally panicked, but not exactly calm either — you're not alone. Most of us live in what meditation teacher <a href= "https://www.christianewolf.com/">Dr. Christiane Wolf</a> calls "yellow mode": a state of low-level vigilance that keeps us productive, but also keeps us anxious, reactive, and exhausted.</p> <p dir="ltr">In this conversation with DJ Cashmere, Christiane unpacks why our nervous systems get stuck in that yellow zone and what we can actually do to shift back into "green mode" — the state of calm alertness where we feel grounded, flexible, and capable of joy.</p> <p dir="ltr">They explore:</p> <ul> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Why our modern lives constantly trigger fight-or-flight</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The difference between "being chill" and being appropriately responsive</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">Simple, science-backed ways to calm your nervous system in seconds</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">How trauma and early conditioning make relaxation feel unsafe</p> </li> <li dir="ltr" aria-level="1"> <p dir="ltr" role="presentation">The role of community (sangha), right livelihood, and mindfulness in long-term regulation<br /> <br /></p> </li> </ul> <p dir="ltr">Christiane is our Teacher of the Month at <a href= "http://danharris.com/">DanHarris.com</a>, where she's creating guided meditations to go along with many of our podcast episodes.

How to Co-Opt All the Stuff That Gets in the Way of Your Meditation | Christiane Wolf

<p dir="ltr">It's one of those ideas that sounds kind of like a Zen riddle, but actually turns out to be incredibly useful: <em>what's in the way is the way</em>.</p> <p dir="ltr">If you've ever sat down to meditate and thought, "Ugh, I can't focus — my mind's all over the place," or, "If only this restlessness would go away, then I could really meditate," this one's for you.

But our unlikely friendship as co-anchors on Good Morning America became a lesson in empathy, curiosity, and the beauty of bridging divides.</em><br /> <br /> <em>In this candid and hilarious reunion, Dan and I talk about media bias, religious differences, and how pushing each other made us better journalists — and better people.

Is Your Ambition Rooted in Trauma? | Christiane Wolf

<p dir="ltr">What if the very thing you think is blocking your progress in meditation — or in life — is actually the doorway forward?</p> <p dir="ltr">In this conversation with Dr. Christiane Wolf, hosted by DJ Cashmere, we explore how to work with expectations, frustration, and the belief that life needs to be different before we can be okay. Christiane shares clear, compassionate wisdom for turning toward difficulty instead of fighting it — and for discovering that what feels like the problem can become the path.</p> <p dir="ltr">Christiane is a physician, longtime meditation teacher, and author of Outsmart Your Pain and A Clinician's Guide to Teaching Mindfulness. She's known for blending deep Buddhist insight with warmth and humor.</p> <p dir="ltr">We're also thrilled to share that Christiane will be our Teacher of the Month for November, leading meditations and conversations throughout the month in the <a href= "http://danharris.com/">DanHarris.com</a> Substack community.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Related Episodes:</p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://www.danharris.com/p/peak-performance-at-any-age-christiane?r=4o5o&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false"> Peak Performance at Any Age | Christiane Wolf (Dharma Teacher/Doctor/Ultramarathoner)</a></p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://www.danharris.com/p/how-to-outsmart-your-pain-christiane-3b6?r=4o5o&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false"> How to Outsmart Your Pain | Christiane Wolf</a></p> <p dir="ltr"><br /> <br /></p> <p dir="ltr">Tickets are now on sale for a special live taping of the 10% Happier Podcast with guest Pete Holmes!

Duct Tape for Your Inner Critic (Gently, of Course) | Dawn Mauricio

<p dir="ltr">If your inner narrator won't give it a rest — constantly judging, narrating, or second-guessing you — you're in good company.</p> <p dir="ltr">In this live conversation from our weekly Substack sessions, Dan sits down with meditation teacher <a href= "http://dawnmauricio.com/">Dawn Mauricio</a> to explore how to work with the nonstop chatter in your mind. They dig into common pitfalls like self-judgment, overthinking, and the feeling that you're "failing" at meditation — and how small mindset shifts can turn those moments into wins.</p> <p dir="ltr">Dawn offers practical, kind, and often funny guidance for bringing gentleness and curiosity to your practice, whether your eyes are closed on the cushion or open while doomscrolling. Plus, Dan and Dawn swap tips on finding meditation community, celebrating awareness instead of berating yourself, and making mindfulness a little more doable — even when your mind won't shut up.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Related Episodes:</p> <p dir="ltr"><a href= "https://www.danharris.com/p/am-i-meditating-correctly-am-i-doing?r=4o5o&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=false"> Am I Meditating Correctly?
