Update: 2021-09-01
Description
This week, Shamash and Calvin begin the journey back home. As ever, they have help along their Hero's Journey through mindfulness and acceptance. In this episode:
- Dr Vikki Barnes offers some advice for anyone having difficulty finding their grit.
- Kush Kanodia approaches the search for grit from the scientific perspective, and explores how grit interplays with long-term systems change.
- Mari Williams counsels us to find the mini version of ourselves that we can identify with, as the carrier of our inner determination.
- Dr Wendy Molefi brings up the idea of equanimity: meeting our thoughts and emotions without getting caught up in them.
- Dr Mehwish Sharif uses the analogy of a swimmer to illustrate what we can do when caught unawares.
- Dr Steven Hayes chats with Shamash about competence, and opens up about the challenges he faced writing the book on Acceptance and Commitment Training.
Next week, we explore post-traumatic growth and reveal the transcendent self.
Mindful Conversations is hosted by mindfulness teacher Shamash Alidina and mindful storyteller Calvin Niles.
