Calm Versus Sleepy
Episode Ep 885 5 min 35s

Do you ever mistake feeling calm for being half-asleep?

In this episode, I talk about the subtle but important difference between peaceful awareness and sleepy dullness in meditation. You'll learn how to stay relaxed yet fully awake, how to let go of attachment to blissful experiences, and why true mindfulness isn't about drifting off—it's about waking up to the present moment.
