    Sitting with Chaos | Zenju Earthlyn Manuel

    This episode comes out for free on December 27th, and is available early and ad-free for Wondery+ subscribers. Very few of us relish chaos and disruption, but they are facts of life, given the nonnegotiable nature of change. In this episode with Zenju Earthlyn Manuel, we’re going to talk about how to tune into the value of disruption, and learn how to sit with the chaos. Zenju Earthlyn Manuel is an ordained Zen priest, holds a Ph.D., and worked for decades as a social science researcher and development director for non-profit organizations. She is also a prolific author. In this conversation we’ll explore: - what to do with the unknown and not having any answers - the power of a “sip of silence” (her term) - what she means by the phrase “death as a doorway to tenderness” - how she defines tenderness - a word that can easily get bogged down in sloppy sentimentality - and what she meant when she wrote “I'm not advocating love as an answer to all of the ills of the world. Then again, it is just that simple to be love.” Content Warning: There are brief mentions of assault; spiritual, sexual, and substance abuse; and racism, including a recent incident Zenju experienced herself. This episode was originally published in October 2021.

    How To Be Less Judgmental (Of Other People – And Yourself) | La Sarmiento

    This episode comes out for free on December 25th, and is available early and ad-free for Wondery+ subscribers. Can mindfulness really pull you out of a spiral of self-judgment? Don’t you need to be judgmental sometimes? What’s the difference between being discerning and judgmental? Description: Meditation and mindfulness doesn’t uproot your capacity to be judgmental, but it can help you see the value in being judgmental by learning how to work with the judging mind. La Sarmiento has been practicing Vipassana meditation since 1998. La is a mentor for the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Certification Program, a teacher with Cloud Sangha, and a contributor to the Happier Meditation app. In this episode we talk about: - How mindfulness can help us identify when we’re being judgmental - The difference between discernment and judgment - How it can be so delicious to be judgmental of others – but why it’s actually harmful to ourselves and others - The four questions to ask when we notice ourselves going into judgment mode - How to operationalize the phrase “am I suffering right now?” - Investigating the motivations behind striving for success - Why owning up to being a jerk is sometimes the exact right answer Full Shownotes: www.meditatehappier.com/podcast/tph/la-sarmiento-rerun-2024 Where to find La Sarmiento online: Website: www.lasarmiento.com Additional Resources: Download the Happier Meditation app today.

  • Hysterical investigates a mysterious illness that spreads among a group of high school girls in upstate New York. What is causing their sudden, often violent symptoms? Is there something in the water or inside the school? Or is it “all in their head?” The series examines the outbreak in LeRoy, NY, believed by some to be the most severe case of mass hysteria since the Salem Witch Trials. In his search for answers, Dan Taberski (9/12, Missing Richard Simmons, Running from Cops) explores other seemingly inexplicable events of the last few years – CIA officers being crippled with nausea and vertigo; cops OD'ing from exposure to fentanyl – and discovers they’re far more connected than we realize. From Wondery and Pineapple Street Studios, this 7-part series forces us to grapple with the mysteries of our own minds, and reckon with a contagion that we thought was long dead, but may be the defining disorder of our time.
