Despre acest podcast
Being Awareness is a multi-format exploration of mindfulness, meditation, and self-awareness. Each episode features self-inquiry, or guided meditation, or stories of applying mindfulness to everyday life. I'm your host, Lin Cassie Zhen. Through my personal journey of learning life's lessons and shedding my own conditioning, I feel called to explore life's greater mysteries and wisdom with the wider world.
I see this podcast as part of my personal learning journey, so I would really appreciate any feedback you may have for me. Please feel free to send your notes to being.awareness.podcast[at]gmail.com
