This Meditation Monday episode, part of a four-part series, is a guided meditation led by Henry Shukman, a Sanbo Zen master. Tim Ferriss introduces the episode and its purpose: to provide listeners with tools to cultivate calm and effectiveness. Shukman's guided meditation focuses on addressing restlessness and difficult emotions during meditation by acknowledging and accepting them rather than fighting them, using the sensation of softness in the body as an anchor. Listeners are encouraged to identify and welcome any restlessness or discomfort, allowing it to be part of their experience. The episode concludes with instructions to gently return to movement and awareness.
