This is a 9-minute mindfulness meditation, led by Sam Harris. In 2018, Sam created the Waking Up app to be the resource he would’ve wanted when he started meditating three decades ago. To learn more about Waking Up and start a free trial, visit: https://wakingup.com. Waking Up is free for anyone who can't afford it—so, if you'd like to listen to more meditations like this one, there's no reason not to try out the app. Waking Up not only teaches the theory and practice of mindfulness—in a way that’s completely free of New Age fluff or religious dogma—but also acts a guide to living a better, more fulfilling, more examined life.
