How to Meditate Without Even Trying

In this episode, Loch welcomes Peter Russell, a physicist-turned-meditation-teacher and author of How to Meditate Without Even Trying, for a conversation about why the most direct path to presence may be the one that is most available. Peter traces his journey from theoretical physics and early Transcendental Meditation practice to decades of teaching what he calls a minimalist practice of allowing. He and Loch explore what "effort" and "effortless" really mean, where the individual self begins and hands off to effortless non-dual awareness. They explore mindfulness of being: relaxing attention and savoring the felt sense of presence, as well as how that quality can be carried off the cushion and into ordinary daily life. The conversation closes with a shared sense that awakening isn't a rare achievement but simply coming home.
