What if you could turn into a happiness billionaire AND share it with the world?
Today’s episode is with Emily’s dear friend and colleague, Light Watkins. As members of the same spiritual family, they’ve known each other for well over 15 years and were brought up in a similar meditation teacher training.
Light has written over 4 bestselling books and is a world-renowned meditation teacher. He’s also what he calls a “one-bagger” - living nomadically out of a carry on since 2018.
In this episode, they discuss why so many people don’t have a meditation practice they can commit to, how to fall in love with your practice and make the mundane more meditative. They also explore why you don’t need to “clear your mind” in order to meditate and how meditation practices for busy people differ from more monastic techniques.
Light also shares this concept of the fake inner voice versus the real inner voice: do you often listen to the voice of stress or the voice of your heart?
Toward the end, they explain what it takes to become a meditation teacher in this type of lineage and the dedication that's required to teach these tools.
