Stephan is a licensed psychotherapist as well as a spiritual teacher, and he has been a pioneer in the integration of Eastern wisdom and Western psychology and in the embodiment of awakened awareness in everyday life. We had a wonderful, life-changing chat about many things but the direct approach to mindfulness he teaches is truly a life-changing practice, at least it was for me! We also talk about:

Finding Zen as his first meditative practice
The idea of coming home and what it means to Stephan
What he felt he wasn’t getting from his zen practice and why this led him to get his masters in psychotherapy
Prescription use for mental health
Blending Mindfulness and Psychotherapy
His new book "Beyond Mindfulness: The Direct Approach to Lasting Peace, Happiness, and Love"
Using the Direct Approach to Mindfulness
Defining awakening
The Myth of Striving
