Our guest today says that for 50% of our lives, we are not paying attention to what we’re doing.In today’s fast-paced, technology-driven world, many of us are coming to terms with the fact that our capacity for paying attention is laughably weak. Our work, mental health, and relationships suffer because of it. But what if there was a tried-and-true way to change this, something like “push-ups for your brain?”Neuroscientist Amishi Jha has dedicated her career to studying this question, and the results are in. In this episode, she describes the practice of mindfulness meditation - why it can work for everyone (not just the spiritual folks), and how it only takes 12 minutes each day to reach one’s “Peak Mind.”Show NotesResources mentioned this episode:Peak Mind by Amishi JhaSimilar No Small Endeavor episodes:Naomi Shihab Nye: The Life Changing Benefits of Paying AttentionCharles Duhigg: The Power of HabitKristin Neff: The Power of Self-CompassionDacher Keltner: How Awe Will Transform Your LifePDF of Lee’s Interview NotesTranscript for Abridged EpisodeJOIN NSE+ Today!

This is our unabridged interview with Rabbi Shai Held.“I think part of what it means to live in an honest way with a religious tradition is to live with its ragged edges.”It’s not unusual to assume that one of religion's prime functions is to give us answers. But what if some of life’s hardest questions weren’t meant to be answered, but rather perpetually asked?In this episode, Rabbi Shai Held, author of the book, "Judaism is About Love: Recovering the Heart of Jewish Life,” exemplifies this possibility, engaging the messiness and joy of life with honest grappling. He argues that some Jews have internalized traditional anti-Jewish bias and he seeks to help recover what has been lost. He shows that love and grace are at the center of a good life.Show NotesResources mentioned this episode:Judaism Is About Love by Shai HeldSimilar No Small Endeavor episodes:Amy-Jill Levine: A Jewish Take on JesusJesuitical: How Young Catholics See the WorldMiroslav Volf: A Theology of JoyPete Enns and Jared Byas: The Bible for Normal PeoplePDF of Lee’s Interview NotesTranscript for Abridged EpisodeJOIN NSE+ Today!

This is our unabridged interview with Stanley Hauerwas (Part I).“This is my life. I want no other.”Time Magazine has recognized Stanley Hauerwas as the best theologian in America. But you don’t get that title by making everybody happy. Stanley's enigmatic personality is loved by some, lambasted by others. His dogged pacifism is laced with profanity. He’s a stereotypical Texan, but is a vocal opponent of gun ownership. Many think him to be a liberal, but he disavows liberalism. Others call him conservative, but his extreme dislike for evangelicalism and war-making dispute that claim.Wherever you're coming from, you're in for a disarmingly candid episode on one man's life in his own words, a life spent relentlessly seeking the nature of a good life.Show Notes:Resources mentioned this episodeHannah’s Child by Stanley HauerwasJohn Dear NSE InterviewPDF of Lee’s Interview NotesTranscript for Abridged EpisodeJOIN NSE+ Today!

This is our unabridged interview with Jeffrey Rosen.“In many ways, we're living in the founders’ nightmare,” says Jeffrey Rosen, president of the National Constitution Center. “All of the founders thought that we could not govern ourselves as a democracy unless we first achieved self-government as individuals.”For Independence Day, Rosen shares how the "pursuit of happiness" mentioned in the Declaration of Independence is defined differently than our contemporary notion of the word. It includes a life in pursuit of self-mastery as what would ensure our individual and collective flourishing. Jeffrey also discusses the goods of stoic philosophy and touts the practice of deep reading as a potential antidote to civic issues the U.S. is facing currently.Show Notes:Resources mentioned this episodeThe Pursuit of Happiness by Jeffrey RosenWe The People PodcastPDF of Lee’s Interview NotesTranscript for Abridged EpisodeJOIN NSE+ Today!

Love the reframing of meditation as a mental exercise process as much or more than a spiritual exercise. I think that makes meditation more welcoming to people from all walks of life to experience its benefits, which ultimately makes us all better community members to one another.

True happiness is often found in meaningful experiences, rather than material possessions. Developing habits and practices such as gratitude, mindfulness, and self-reflection can also contribute to a more fulfilling life. It's inspiring to hear from people who are taking the question of how to live a good life seriously and I look forward to exploring this topic further with No Small Endeavor. https://www.kmfusa.org/
Malcolm Gladwell: You can give 1 million dollars to Harvard University; You might as well burn 1 million dollars in Harvard square. There will be no difference; the marginal value of a dollar for Harvard university is ZERO. YET everyone tolerates such A PREPOSTEROUS SYSTEM IN USA while every week we hear some hedge fund millionaire writing a check to donate to Harvard.
