Our willingness to embrace and make space for all aspects of ourselves, both the good and the bad, can lead to greater peace and contentment in our lives. By practicing gratitude and mindfulness, we can shift our mindset and find joy in the present moment.
And the way we perceive the universe, whether as benevolent or something to fear, shapes our experiences and interactions with the world. Understanding the power of our perspectives can help us navigate life with more compassion and openness.
Ben is joined in this episode by Haemin Sunim, a Buddhist monk from South Korea. He has written several books and is known for his simple and evocative writing style. Haemin's work focuses on mindfulness, healing, and finding peace in our lives.
He combines Buddhist teachings with practical advice to help people navigate challenges and cultivate compassion and gratitude. In addition to writing, Haemin runs the School for Broken Hearts, where he invites people facing difficulties to have open-hearted conversations and learn from one another. In his discussion with Ben, he highlights the importance of embracing all aspects of ourselves and finding joy in the present moment.
