CZ 075: Donald Altman, International mindfulness expert, Author, former Buddhist monk
Manage episode 237199965 series 1416374
Donald Altman was a fascinating person to chat with. His background is in psychotherapy, he's a former Buddhist monk, and grounded in a lot of research and science that comes through on almost every topic that we discuss together. We talked about:
- Being a buddhist monk at the age of 40 and how this formalized his meditation practice
- How a Cadbury chocolate egg at the monastery taught him a lot about understanding himself
- What studies show about our mind wandering and our happiness
- His latest book, Reflect, and how it can be used as it's own meditation practice
- Reflection vs. rumination
- The underlying reasons for mindless eating
- Uncovering the true essence of ourselves
- How to navigate the seemingly daunting task of facing our past trauma
- How research has shown the power that gratitude can have in our lives
