Episode 3911: Leo Babauta offers a refreshingly honest look at mindfulness, dismantling the myth of instant calm and revealing the discomfort, messiness, and relentless practice that come with it. Through personal insights, he encourages us to embrace imperfection, confront our inner resistance, and cultivate compassion as we navigate the deeper, more real journey of being present. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://zenhabits.net/honest-mindfulness/ Quotes to ponder: "Mindfulness is messy, just like life, which is the reason to open up to the messiness instead of our usual desire for things to be orderly and neat." "Mindfulness is only part of the work. The work also requires compassion, for yourself and others." "Feeling like we are on solid ground is an illusion, and learning to deal with the groundlessness of not knowing is an incredible practice." Learn more about your ad choices.
