In the aftermath of more slow, dystopian, apocalypse shenanigans I’m trying meditations to slap a bandaid on my hemorrhaging mental health.
Seems like all I can find are slow ASMR style speeches about sunny fields and peachy angels, and I can’t stand that don’t-wake-the-baby talk. I’m not a baby.
I connected with one, lost to time, led by a guy with a chronic smoker’s rasp who demanded inner peace. It was spiritually healing because I have a poor relationship with my father.
Please, friends, do you know any free, guided meditations that aren’t condescendingly peaceful? That aren’t trying to sell supplements or pitch their sponsors midway through?
PS. No posh london accents, they remind me of the king.
Warning this is Sam Harris app
And why do people need to be warned of that for?
Probably for his media around the subjects of islam, race and gender.
This is one of the more balanced pieces I can find on the issue since it cites sources - and though this editor and Harris are in a feud, Klein links to Harris’s rebuttal on his own website. https://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2018/3/27/15695060/sam-harris-charles-murray-race-iq-forbidden-knowledge-podcast-bell-curve
Well, rest assured. This is a meditation app - he doesn’t share his political opinions in there. He has a podcast (and substack) for that for which he’ll also give anyone a free subscription to in case they want to look into this controversy and hear from the original source rather than from the famously anti-Sam Harris reporter, Ezra Klein
You’re why I need to meditate.
