A Buddhist Secret for Calm, Energy, and Handling Obnoxious People | Trudy Goodman
How to stay calm and steady in uncertain times.
Trudy Goodman, Ph.D., is the founding teacher of InsightLA and cofounder of The Institute for Meditation and Psychotherapy. Trudy has trained in mindfulness and Zen since 1973, holds a graduate degree in developmental psychology from Harvard, and is widely known for her role as the voice of Trudy the Love Barbarian in the Netflix series The Midnight Gospel.
In this episode we talk about:
- How to trust yourself
- Why Trudy is interested in this topic of self-trust
- Why Trudy doesn't love the word "enlightenment", but does want to make the concept more accessible
- What self-love does — and doesn't — look like, especially in a Buddhist context
- Staying steady in uncertain times
- Intuition and trusting yourself
- The importance of getting out of your own bubble and differentiating between your opinions and values
- The connection between forgiveness and trusting yourself
