About this episode
What if you are not your thoughts, and simply knowing that changes the way you experience everything?
A moment from the podcast archive that I felt deserved to be heard again.
Today, my guest Ray Martin, entrepreneur, mindfulness teacher and author of Life Without A Tie, shares one of his six rules for happiness: become your own observer. Drawing on his experience of a 10-day Vipassana meditation retreat, Ray explains why the ability to watch yourself having a thought, rather than being consumed by it, is one of the most powerful shifts in awareness a person can make.
Press play to discover how this one insight raises your accountability, closes the gap between expectation and reality, and gives you a completely different relationship with everything that happens to you.
