Episode Jack Kornfield - Wisdom For Our Times
As 2020 draws to a close, Wendy speaks with Buddhist teacher, author, and psychologist Jack Kornfield in a special episode. Their conversation covers a wide range of topics, including:
• how he's interpreting our current moment, and what's needed most; • his path into Buddhism & psychology, reflecting on family and coming of age in the 1960s; • the value of going on a meditation retreat; • links between Buddhism and psychology in terms of healing and self; • the problem of spiritual bypassing; • how to work with difficulties through allowing and gratitude; • the role of Buddhist ideas in activism and social justice work; • and the most important thing researchers can measure as an outcome of meditation practice.
