121. Why Meditation Isn't What You Think (Tips from a Meditation Master) ft. Rudy Daniel

True mindfulness isn’t about forcing silence; it’s about immersing fully in life’s simplest moments. From the warmth of a coffee cup to the rhythm of a knife slicing a tomato, each experience can be a gateway to presence, turning the mundane into moments of profound freedom. In the art of simply "being," life reveals itself as rich, timeless, and accessible to anyone willing to pause and truly notice.
